    Fabulous location

    The pets pretty much have their own wing of the hotel!! It’s really conveniently located near the north entrance and your pets can relieve themselves in a fairly private area.

    Great location and service

    We were placed in a room far away from other guests. Quiet facility. Clean. Efficient check in. Plenty of areas with grass and walking areas for walking your pets. No additional fee for pets.
