I called them directly when making the reservations and asked and we did receive an RTC Graduation rate. You have to call the hotel direct -- not the HI reservations #. (Grad was in 2/2018)
We did not get a discount for the room but I did not mind because of the hot breakfast and convenient drive to the navy base. Which you will be going back and forth several times.
We were told after we arrived and had booked online, that if we had called them specifically we could have received the special for naval families. They couldn't do anything for us since our reservation had already been made.
We didn't get any sort of discount. We went to see my daughter graduate from basic and they didn't offer any specials and they knew why we were making reservations.
