After traveling 2 days from another overseas duty station, I arrived at night and was quickly greeted by swarms of ants. Ants coming out of outlets, behind dressers, in the bathroom, along the baseboards of the rooms, walking leisurely through the middle of the room, etc. Then, I guess our room was too far from the main building because we could not get consistent Wi-Fi. Had to use hot spot to get decent internet service. Not the best way to welcome new families to a new duty station. The only redeeming quality of this place is the staff. They were kind and sympathetic, and they did have an exterminator come out and attempt to treat the ants and offered to allow me to move to a new room. However, I have the feeling it’s gonna be the same problem in any room because I just saw dozens of scout ants scurrying through the laundry room on the property. Staff aside, this is by far the worst Navy Lodge I’ve ever stayed in. When sailors and families are mandated to stay in government lodging when PCSing overseas, you’d think that more effort would be used to make them feel more comfortable upon arrival and through their extended stay. There is nothing comfortable about this Navy Lodge. Guests deserve better. To conclude, I noticed in another review that the property manager responded and said that there are limitations on pest control. I don’t see how the property’s limitations should become the guests’ problem. If the problems can’t be fixed then families should not be mandated to stay at the property.

Great experience staying Navy Lodge Rota! Clean large room with 2 queen size beds, clean bathroom, small kitchen area with electric stove, microwave, and fridge. Large TV with a few channels. Free wifi, paid laundry in the main building. Large courtyard with many outdoor grills and benches for seating. Family friendly! Located a few minutes from base amenities such as Commissionary, Navy Exchange, movie threater, etc

The rooms were nice and bed was comfy. Walking distance of the gate and local restaurants. Only reason for the three start is that there is some truth to ants in the room reviews on here. Rm 28 had them, but just on the bathroom sink. It was tolerable for the 1 night we stayed, but would have been frustrating for any longer.

Ants are a small problem but they offered to move us to a different room. Other than that, cozy rooms, tiny kitchen, half fridge. Showers are nice. AFN TV

I had a wonderful stay at the Navy Lodge in Rota. The room was pleasant and clean (no stairs, yay!) with a mini fridge and cooking facilities. The front desk manager, Ms Gala Pazos, was extremely helpful and polite. She gave me great suggestions for walking about and dining in town. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a pleasant stay!

Reservists aren't allowed, unreal. It's unfortuante the Navy does such a diservice to Reserve personnel. The funny thing is, you can still fly into ROTA as a Resevist on Space A flights. Strange policy, regardless of SOFA agreements in place.

Service here is fantastic, everyone from the front desk staff to housekeeping to the maintenance folks are all warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful! The location and rooms themselves are beautiful and well-kept. Rooms come with a small kitchenette with pots and pans which is a great bonus! That being said, this place is absolutely INFESTED with ants. They're everywhere, the beds, the rugs, behind the dressers, under the stove, all over the bathroom and shower. If the first thing you want to do in the morning, every morning, is clean hundreds of ants off of the bathroom sink and out of the bathtub, then stay here! It's so bad they're coming out of the outlets in the walls. The front desk was extremely sympathetic and allowed my family and I to change rooms (far away), and we still had the exact same issue. The pest-control methods they're using aren't working, the place needs to be shut down and have a professional exterminator come in and remove them from inside the walls. 1/5 stars due to ants falling on me while showering.

Great facility. Staff is very friendly and fully capable. we arrived at three o'clock in the morning our room was ready to. The room was very clean the beds were very comfortable everything was ready to go.

Decent living accommodation. I like that there's a small kitchen with a mini fridge, stove top, microwave, plates, utensils, and cooking pots. They clean daily.

Very friendly stuff. Rooms are outdated, but comfortable. Breakfast is definitely lacking.

Comfortable accommodations and friendly employees. Food that I'd bought disappeared from my room during the day. Of course this caused me great concern for the safety of my other belongings. Avoid if you value your peace of mind.
