Reviews
- PaulaNov 24, 2023Great room and price!
The room was quite large and our 2 dogs loved it. Check-in was easy, room was clean and nice. Using BringFido has been the best, easiest, efficient way to reserve rooms with pets. All rooms have been first floor and easy access. Highly recommend hotel and BringFido!
- JudithOct 10, 2023Great location
Clean, grassy field (not fenced) to romp in, easy walking area. 8 paws up from our 2 dogs.
- Larry & CherylSep 6, 2023Easy to get to
Hotel was good with a friendly staff, but no breakfast.
- DeannaJun 11, 2023Great for our dogs
The location is backed up to a wooded area so it’s nice and quiet for the dogs. It’s not fenced but it is a wide stretch and the grass is mowed so the dogs can run freely without fear of cars or distractions. Everything was super clean and the rooms have been recently updated. Comfortable mattress too. Highly recommend!
- MikeNov 10, 2022Perfect all around
This is one of the first hotels I’ve stayed in where all the boxes are checked. It is clean, the rooms are spacious, quiet, and of course have fridge, stove, utensils, etc. They have a huge grassy area that’s perfect for the dogs. AND, the front desk staff was amazing, friendly and very helpful. Definitely recommend. 🙂
- CindySep 19, 2022Clean room
Dog friendly, convenient.
- KellyMay 2, 2022Inexpensive and nice grass in back
Staff was nice. Room okay but a bit sketchy with crunchy spots in carpet. And smelly garbage disposal.
