There is internet access in the rooms, idk if it is wireless or not. I am sure someone will chime in that knows, but if not I can ask my husband later when he gets in! But it is available and when they move in the BEQ they let them know the carrier(Sprint I believe) and the costs. There is also free internet in the Bowman Center for them to use in the meantime.

Aggie~  Everyone I'm sure has their own favorite hotel around here.  I stay at the Hyatt Place in No. Charleston.  The rates are very reasonable and it is a brand new hotel....just opened in April so everything here is pretty nice.  To give you an idea, I just got my room with my AAA discount for $89 bucks a night - King bed, non-smoking.  The entire hotel is non-smoking so if you are a smoker you'd need to keep that in mind here :)  I know you'll have a great time in Charleston!  Lots of good food and places to visit :)

Have fun, javajo.  Let me know where you stayed and what you thought.  My older son and I are planning on going to Charleston for a long Easter weekend and I'm needing advise on where would be a good place to stay.

Sue, do you have Ross, Marshalls, or TJ Maxx in your area? I bought a nice black bag for $20-25 at Ross not long ago...

Thanks Ginny and Elizabeth.  I will definitely have to find a pic to post :)

Sue, my sailor was very concerned at the time that his computer case was not black - it is very dark gray, which has turned out to be okay. Red is probably a no-no...;)

Sue, I do believe things that they carry in uniform have some rstrictions as to how they can be carried and what colors they are.  He will know.

Thanks Darla and Elizabeth for sharing in my excitement.  I just arrived at the hotel and it's a gorgeous 62 degrees and sunny.  Just waiting for a call to arrange our mother/son dinner date tonight :)  Have a great weekend all!

Goose creek is actually the City in South Carolina, the base is Navel weapons station (NWS) or Joint base Charleston (JBC) depending on who you are...we recently merged with Charleston Air force base to become one huge base so either one of those would work when describing the base name :)
