    Great all-around

    Very friendly staff, from front desk to kitchen staff. Very clean rooms and well appointed with plenty of towels. Applebees in the same parking lot was convenient too. Plenty of grassy areas and extremely well lit at night. We know from experience. There seems to be a resident cat hanging around outside so hang onto the leash if your Fido is inclined to chase. Haha. Breakfast was great, coffee could have been better but my hubby says I’m a coffee snob. I would recommend to anyone stopping in with pets. Our two dogs seemed very comfortable, but were terrified of the elevator. Our room was on the 3rd floor, but they needed the exercise so we didn’t mind the stairs.

    Easy on/off 81

    Lots of grassy areas for walking, ground floor rooms with easy access to side entrance and exit.

    Very Accommodating

    Our room was on the first floor near an exit, which made it so easy to take our dogs out. Plenty of grassy areas for walking plus a specified area for potty breaks with poo bags on hand. Highly recommend.

    So good!

    Many of the hotels that allow pets are not so great. This one far exceeded my experiences at those hotels. It was clean, had fluffy towels, nice beds and a great free breakfast. I highly recommend this spot!

    Great stop except…

    This is a really nice hotel except the no dog left in room alone rule is not followed. There was a dog howling I assume from separation anxiety. I mentioned it to the front desk and they seemed to know the person who belongs to the dog and basically shrugged their shoulders. My heart hurt for this animal who clearly should not have been left alone.

    October 2022 stay

    The beds were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed a nice hot breakfast and there were grassy areas around the perimeter for dogs. We were very glad we used the BringFido app to secure our room as there were a number of folks turned away as they did not register earlier and the hotel was full. I would stay here again!

    Perfect Stopping Point

    On our way to GA from CT, we stayed overnight at the Holiday Inn Express in Lexington, VA. The accommodations were good, however, our reservation had us in a king size bed. We got 2 queen beds instead. When I inquired I was told to take that up with the booking company I used. That was a disappointment.

    No issue with our 50lb lab/hound mix

    My dog hates all cars and trucks, so we appreciated the quiet lawn at the back of the hotel. The room was nice for dog and people. Breakfast was tasty.

    Wonderful hotel and breakfast

    We had a room with extra living room added. It was worth the extra charge. Our Rhodesian Ridgeback loved having his own area. The carpets (which we usually prefer not to have) are cleaned after every pet visit. The included breakfast was excellent. This was the best pet-friendly hotel we have stayed in with BringFido.

    GREAT HOTEL GREAT LOCATION

    Hotel and staff were awesome. We have a full grown Mastiff and the room was huge so our puppy and us had plenty of room to stretch out in. The room was clean and modern. They had an area to walk your pet on both sides and in the rear of the hotel. I will be back.
