Perfect

The dog park is wonderful & being able to park your vehicle right at the door to your room (and not having to haul the dogs & luggage up to a room) is amazing!! It definitely smells strongly of cleaning solutions, but it's worth it.

Multiple issues

This place has GREAT reviews, but I just stayed for a couple nights and it was a train wreck. I had to wait 2 hours to check-in (99 degrees outside). I asked for a room near a door or an elevator for my labs, but was given the room furthest from everything in the entire hotel - 3rd floor & down these long twisting hallways. Housekeeping knocked on my door every morning multiple times before checkout time. The coffee was horrible. The a/c unit leaked into my suitcase. Whatever. It was clean, there's a Starbucks next door, and tons of green space for the dogs.

Not impressed

We'd been camping for a few days so I knew I looked pretty rough at check in, but I desperately wanted a shower and I wasn't expecting to be treated like trash by the Hilton front desk clerk. She was SO RUDE!! I tried 3x to be friendly with her but she was a snob every time, and when I asked her for a room near the front door (for the dog) she put us on the top floor of the hotel & as far away from the door as possible (we checked in at 3pm so there were other rooms available). The room was about 85 degrees, the phone didn't work, there were no washcloths, the shower handle was broken, and the lamp shade was ripped up. I demanded a new room & they delivered an upgrade.

Mar. 20, 2021

meh

this hotel is outdated (70's polyester) and is getting pretty run down, plus the man working the front desk does not appear to like dogs or people... but the pet fee is cheap and there's a little park right across the street

Mar. 20, 2021

Excellent

1st floor pet friendly patio rooms with a view of the water. Nice basket of dog treats, bowls, towels, and sheets waiting in the room. HUGE park right next door where the dogs could run off leash. Clean. Friendly. Love dogs. Perfect.

cool hotel for people

this hotel scores major cool points with me. the mgr was super friendly & informative, and there was a record player with records in one of our rooms..., but its only cool for people bc there's nowhere to let your dog outside. absolutely nowhere. I dont think a hotel can be "pet friendly" if there's nowhere for your dog to pee.

Feb. 22, 2021

Pretty nice

Its definitely dated, but they're friendly and everything is clean. There's space out back for the dogs to pee, and there's a really nice dog park down the road.

Feb. 22, 2021

Nasty

This hotel is NASTY. Everything is either old, run down, smells bad, or broken. Theres an old drunk couple next door been screaming obscenities at each other for an hour & there's teenagers in the parking lot swearing loudly and smoking weed. I dont feel safe here.

Feb. 22, 2021

Not bad.

The room was large & clean. The roomservice was good. The staff was friendly. There were lots of places for the dogs outside. I'd stay there again.

Feb. 22, 2021

Its nice

Its a nice hotel. We got the 2 bd suite for a few nights. There's grassy areas for the dogs & the beds are super comfy... but its wicked expensive to bring your dogs

Feb. 22, 2021

Pretty dang nice

I was not expecting this hotel to be so nice, it was just a place to crash on a very long road trip... but it surprised me. The front desk was friendly, the rooms were clean, and there wax lots of space outside for the dogs.

Jan. 31, 2021

no.

pretty sure the only reason they allow dogs here is bc they’re trying to cover up the stink of a century of cigarettes. this place smells like an old ashtray. I did not find the staff to be friendly or helpful either. Pretty disappointing. I was looking forward to getting away for a minute, instead I’m exhausted from dealing with their incompetence.

LOVE IT ❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful, clean, lots of grassy areas, big beach, hiking trails, patio... perfect

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Clean, grassy places for dogs, free laundry, kitchenette in room, I liked it here.
The Fed Ex plant next door and the train slamming are pretty loud throughout the entire night :(

Nov. 04, 2019

nope

The pet friendly room was directly over the hotel entrance with a window opening into its carport, so all noise & fumes were funneled straight into our room. It was not pet-friendly. It's just a run down hotel in a college town. yuck 😖

Nov. 04, 2019

NO

Don't go here.
I'm pretty sure they rent by the hour.
This is not a nice place.
No. No. No.

Nov. 04, 2019

Meh...

It's very close to being run down. We stayed 2 nights & they didn't clean our room. Had to ask for towels twice. Nowhere for the dogs to be outside. Not great, but not nasty

Oct. 04, 2019

nasty

DO NOT STAY HERE

Oct. 04, 2019

Meh...

if they could do less they would. truck got pilfered in their parking garage. power was out with no wifi, no tv, no lights, and no hot water from 7am until we had to leave... nobody apologized. Nobody cared. I'm not going back.

Aug. 08, 2019

it was good

there was an area for the dogs outside. the room was clean.

Oct. 19, 2018

clean, and lots of grassy areas

loved it here. perfect.

Oct. 19, 2018

DO NOT STAY HERE !!!!

pros: beautiful hotel. GEORGOUS views from rooms. great restaurant & roomservice. fireplace & soaking tub in rooms. friendly staff.
cons: there are train tracks about 10 yards from the hotel, and at least 10 INSANELY loud trains thunder thru during the night... the whole hotel shakes & echoes with it waking up EVERYONE (especially dogs). they supply ear plugs to wear its so loud, but my labs wouldn't wear them :)

Oct. 19, 2018

no grass anywhere

pretty sure they rent by the hour to locals... certainly sounded like it. pretty gross. nowhere at all for the dogs.

Oct. 19, 2018

clean, lots of grassy places

clean room, and a back door to take the dogs to many grassy areas :)

Oct. 19, 2018

It's ok

It's a decent hotel. Nice view & clean towels, but the rooms are really really really small... bordering on claustrophobic.
There's a 4x10 area for pets that's pretty bad (no fence / moldy fake turf).
There were at least 12 other dogs staying here on a Tuesday night. Seems like all the $$$ they're making from dogs could be used to make the hotel even a little bit pet friendly??
I do not reccomend this hotel to those traveling with dogs. There's not a single inch of decent space for them anywhere.

Sep. 06, 2018

Perfect.

This hotel is wonderful. The staff is friendly. The room was clean. The towels and bedding were soft. There's grassy areas everywhere that the dogs are actually allowed to walk on. There are outdoor hoses to clean off the beach. They give you bags, treats, and towels for the dogs at check in. There's great food nearby.
We have 3 labs traveling with us, and we were all very happy here. Highly reccomend :)

Sep. 06, 2018

Perfect. Couldn't have been better.

I stayed here with my labs, and it was wonderful. There were dog friendly trails & a dog friendly beach. The room was beautiful and private and surrounded by trees. The food was very good. The bed was insanely comfortable.

I couldn't get in for any last minute spa treatments (my fault), but the spa certainly looked very nice. I highly reccomend staying here with your dog. We had a great time.

Sep. 04, 2018

lots of grass

Pet owners get 1st floor rooms with a patio that open to a large grassy area. Im not sure where the miles of nature that they advertised as being behind their property were at, I only saw the highway... but it was a good dog space.

Sep. 01, 2018

not dog friendly at all.

We stayed for 2 nights, and they do allow dogs. They even have cute little dog beds that they send up to your room (which is always a great room at a Kimpton)... but there is nowhere to let your dog outside. Nowhere. Not one single place ANYWHERE.
The conceriege suggested that we drive to the Beverly Hills dog park (which turned out to be over 15 min away & required a yearly membership) when our dogs needed to use the bathroom... are you kidding me??? Its not dog friendly if there's nowhere to poo.
I guess this property would be ok if you have a little city dog who pees on sidewalks, but I've got 3 labs. It was aweful.

Aug. 30, 2018

EXCELLENT !!!

Stayed here with all 3 of my labs. Got a room on the ground floor with patio doors that opened to a grassy area & a river walk trail!! Hooray :)

Aug. 30, 2018

Basic Cheap Hotel

Pet friendly here doesn't include a single place for your dogs to go to the bathroom... not anywhere at all!! I think a bed & a bathroom are pretty standard hotel requirements.
I would not stay here again.
