Pitbull friendly

My dog sasha and I stayed a few nights at the Thunderbird. The Thunderbird was not my initial top choice but the extended stay in Savannah does not allow pitbulls so I was very happy when I called the thunderbird and they said there are no breed restrictions. Upon arrival check-in was quick and easy they handed me a homemade dog bone for sasha and I little keychain for her. Thare are some additional fees however. There is a $50 dog deposit which their website mentions, however, though there is parking onsite there is a $15 per night parking charge which I did not see mentioned anywhere online. They also make you sign a waiver for your dog, dog can't go on the furniture, you can't leave dog in the room unattended, if your dog makes excessive noise you could be kicked out. They didn't ask for any proof of vaccines or rabies shots like most places do when I bring sasha, but I was prepared just in case. Once we got to the room it was just a standard king bef room, the bathroom was very tiny, couldn't close the door because the toilet was right there. Bedding was clean, however, sasha is one of those dogs who gets more water on the floor than she does in her mouth when she's drinking water so I grabbed one of the white face towels to sop it up. Bad idea, the towel was no longer white but a dirty brown. I used one of sasha's to-go car towels after that. There was also a strangely musty smell upon first entering the room each time but I didn't notice the smell after a few mintues. The thunderbird inn in on a fairly busy road and it's a motel. You could hear all the cars driving past at night and hear everyone walking by your room, the walls between the rooms were thin as well as I could hear stuff I did not want to. There is only a coffee maker and fridge in the room no microwave. I drink tea so I just needed the hot water from the coffee maker, when opening the top I noticed it was a little dirty so I put the water in it and it came out with specks, i did this 5 more times and it still had specks so I just didnt use it. The tv works but the remote does not so if you want to change the volume or channel you have to press and hold the single button on the tv. There was also no tv channel guide so I needed up going through each channel and writing down what each was. Overall staff was friendly, room cleanliness was not up to my standards, location was great, we walked everywhere.
