    Okay stay

    There was a sheet for the dog and a towel with food and water dishes.

    Very accommodating

    The staff called the morning of our stay and confirmed that we needed a pet friendly room. They were ready for our arrival. The staff was friendly and organized. The room was clean, had everything we needed for an overnight, and came with some extras for our dog (a sheet to protect the carpet or a bed, a towel, a food and water dish). There's an open field near by for quick relief stops, and the harbor beach was a great hangout spot at sunset (about a 5 minute drive). We'd stay there again

    No dogs allowed this day

    After reserving a room was called and told no pet rooms available. No refund issued yet.

    A dream for dog people

    We had a ground floor, nonsmoking room, provided with a sheet to protect the bed, towel for feet, even a disposable tray for food and water. Refrigerator in the room, microwave and ice around the corner. A huge field adjacent to the property for poop walks, and an easy walk to the Pacific Coast. Very friendly staff. The only downside is no dogs on the miniature golf course.

    Dog friendly and clean

    We stayed here for 2 nights and I highly recommend this place. They practice social distancing in this hotel. They have a drive up window and got the keys from the inn keeper. We got 2 queens in a pet friendly room (111). We walked in and it was very clean and they had a basket of dog sheets and a bowl for them. The beds are comfy and there is an 18 hole mini golf in their property. They also have an arcade in the property across the parking lot. This inn is about a 10 minute walk to the coast and we watched the sunsets every night we were there. It was great place to walk our dogs. There is a MC Donald's across the street. Its about 5 minutes from downtown Ft. Bragg and 20 min by car to Mendocino. I highly recommend this place. My doggies loved the place and we didnt hear the other dogs within the property, especially next door to us.

    Nice room. Staff was friendly. Make sure you call ahead to verify they have pet rooms available. And just be aware that your “payment” through BringFido is only a hold and not an actual payment. You have to pay the actual hotel. Nice big area for the dogs.

    Great Place!

    Welcomes families and dogs. The rooms have wonderful resources listing nearby attractions, dog-friendly trails. Just a short walk to amazing coastal scenery, a private beach, etc. Excellent location.

    Clean and affordable

    Nice motel with fair rates. Not sure why the other reviewer gave it only 2 stars. I've never met a mini golf course that allowed dogs....most hotels/motels that are dog friendly have certain off-limit areas. Fort Bragg/Mendocino are generally very dog friendly.
