    Will stay again!

    This was a great hotel. We were treated very well from check-in, to check-out. Sugar is a very nice, quiet, well trained and behaved dog. When we were placed in a room right next to the lower level exit, at the end of the wing, we thought the staff was probably expecting the worst. But it was very convenient for us and close to the dog walk area. We always bring our own poop bags, but they actually supplied high quality bags and a receptacle nearby. Just be aware there are ground squirrels all over that area so if your dog is a hunter, it may take a few minutes to get the thought of “going” to bear. The room was clean and serviceable, and very nice! The breakfast was a nice benefit to us and we took turns going in for breakfast. Special thanks to Berenice from housekeeping for such a clean room! Take the tip and get yourself something special girl! You rock‼️

    Great stay!

    This has been our favorite hotel to stay with our puppy so far. It’s clean, the rooms are very nice, and free breakfast is great. The beds are very comfy and we will definitely be back if we are in need of a hotel in the area!
