This hotel suits budget-conscious families and space/science enthusiasts visiting the U.S. Space & Rocket Center and Space Camp, both under 5 miles away, thanks to its suite layout, pull-out sofas, and in-room kitchenette amenities. It also works for travelers attending business at nearby research park facilities or NASA Marshall Space Flight Center who want complimentary parking, free Wi-Fi, and a quick breakfast before heading out.
Travel tips
A car is recommended since most attractions, including the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, Huntsville Museum of Art, and downtown Huntsville sites, are several miles away and best reached via US-72. Plan for roughly a 10-15 minute drive to central Huntsville attractions like Big Spring International Park and Lowe Mill, and closer to 20-25 minutes if venturing out to Monte Sano State Park or Burritt on the Mountain. Since room quality has been reported as inconsistent by some guests, it may be worth requesting a recently renovated room at check-in.
