Nice rooms, but high pet fees

The hotel itself was nice, rooms were clean, very spacious lobby, restaurant on site, grass outside for pups, but ooof - when I pay $139 for the room and then the pet fees end up being another $100 per night for 2 dogs, it feels a little much. If you don't mind that, everything else was good.

Nice hotel, plenty of space

Nice hotel, clean rooms, areas outside to walk pets, restaurant on site for both dinner and breakfast, nice staff. Good option if you are passing through the area.

It was just ok

The hotel itself was clean, and the room was nice, with plenty of space. I'll echo other reviews and say it is a noisy location, right by the highway, and the gated parking, which feels secure also makes you ask why. There was space for our dogs to go inside the secure area, which was good, and the pet fees are inexpensive compared to others. One oddity was no one at the front desk for > 30 minutes at 6am, which frustrated several guests trying to check out. Breakfast was fine, and overall hotel was ok, but I'm not sure I would stay here again..

Good and Bad

Ok, here's the good. The room was clean and quiet and the free breakfast (which is typical hotel breakfast). Now the bad (not all pet related). The Pet Relief area was not mowed (grass 8 inches high) even though the rest of the grounds were mowed. I also had issues during check-in because of a discrepancy in the rate. It took 20 min for the desk clerk to attempt to get it straightened out before she would give me a room key, and the room key, stopped working the next morning and we had to wait for a manager to come fix it. And then they charged our card for the room, even though it had already been paid in advance. One word, BEWARE, if you want to use this location.

Clean, quiet, good location

Very nice little hotel only 1.5 miles from Cannery Row. The room was clean and quiet, first floor. There is a restaurant on site or a Denny's across the street (for breakfast). Great for restaurants and water views (just not sure how many of those allow dogs). Would definitely recommend this place if you are staying in Montery.

Quiet, good location

The hotel is located in a good area, about 13 miles south of Yosemite. The hotel was quiet, and the room was clean, but the entire site is a little older. Depending on which room they put you in, there can be outside steps down into the room and down to the grassy area for pets. We had some issues with ants in the bathroom, but based on location and the age of the hotel, I'm not entirely surprised. It was suitable for what it was, but I would probably check for something else if I were staying in the area again.

Always love Home2 Suites

We've never had a bad experience with a Home2 Suites. They are super pet friendly, rooms are large and clean, and the service is always good. The only thing I will say about this hotel is the outdoor pet areas are fake grass (outdoor carpet) and our dogs didn't quite understand (ended up peeing in the rocks). I would recommend staying here, you can't go wrong.

Suitable

When you get off the highway and drive up to the place, and the general location, it appears kinda sketchy. The hotel itself is poorly situated, but the room was clean and we had no real issues. I would not recommend it for anything other than an overnight stop on the way to somewhere else.

Very nice hotel

I knew the location from years ago when I traveled for work. The hotel is updated, clean, quiet and very pet friendly. Grass outside to walk your babies, and in a quiet area. On-site restaurant and bar if you don't want to leave the hotel, or close to other good options if you do. Right off the interstate, easy access. Great place if you are passing through.

Good Food, right on the main street

We've been here before, but hadn't realized they were dog friendly until today.... Great food and service, outdoor pet friendly seating with sun and shade, depending on where you sit.... right on the main drag in SK, close to many other things..

Good place in the area

I'll preface this review by saying we stayed there 1 night, arriving in the evening and leaving very early the next day due to a snow storm.The front desk was great, room was decent, no complaints other than it's not 5 star. It served our purpose and is definitely pet friendly.

Excellent choice in Cranberry

We used to live here, so we know the area. This was our first time staying here. The hotel, although maybe a little older, had large, clean rooms, plenty of space outside to walk the pups, and free breakfast (which was pretty decent for a hotel breakfast). Hotel is conveniently located close to restaurants (one across the parking lot is also pet friendly), shopping, gas, etc.

Great Place to Stay

We've been to Key West multiple times, but this is our first time staying here. The place was very nice and quiet, despite being a block off of Duval Street. Easy walking distance to anywhere you want to go. Will definitely stay here again.

Good location, plus free food

First off, they are obviously pet friendly. There is decent green space outside. It's also near major shopping and food for Mom and Dad. The hotel itself offers a free dinner and drinks every day at 5:30, so if you don't want to go out, you don't have to..

Awesome stay

I have never seen a facility that was more pet friendly than this one. From the minute that we stepped out of the car, to the minute we checked out, EVERY single employee that we encountered was petting our pups, asking about them, etc. They even have a welcome board with your pets names on it in the lobby, and treat bag! And, did I mention, the rooms are awesome as well. Will definitely be back!

GREAT SERVICE and Food

We stopped in here to grab something to eat.. we sat outside,having our 2 dogs with us. But before our food arrived, it started raining... the waiter checked with the manager and they allowed us to come inside with the dogs.. then the food arrived and it was really really good.. wife had the Lasagna and I had pasta with Bolognese and meatballs.. delicious! I highly recommend

Awesome place right on the water

Stopped in here for a late lunch with our pooch.... service was awesome..super attentive to us and our dog, even swapping out her water bowl at one point to ensure she had fresh water, and bringing a cup of ice to keep it cool.. plenty of outdoor seating in the Tiki bar area ......definitely will be back

Great value for the money

We were house hunting in the area and decided to give this place a try. We were pleasantly surprised. The room was large -separate "living room" with couch and TV, then a bedroom with another TV, and the bathroom. Laminate floors were a great thing, having our dog with us. Room was clean, hotel was quiet; right next door is the Anna Maria Oyster bar which is also dog friendly! Would definitely stay here again

Great Hotel for Pets

Aloft, in general is a very pet-friendly hotel. In Greenville, they are also in a great location with several pet- friendly restaurants in close walking distance. Have stayed here several times.

Nice Location on the river

Stopped here for dinner with our pup.....dogs are allowed on the patio, and at the "hardscape" of the outdoor Tiki bar, but not allowed on the sand.. service was good...they brought a water bowl, and we added a chicken breast to my wife's entree for our dog... food was good....will definitely come here again

Great little place for breakfast

We decided to stop in here for breakfast, since it seems to be hard to find something early in the day that allows dogs... service was excellent, and the food was very good too.... highly recommend

Nice Hotel

We were only there for one night. Room was clean and updated. Slightly confusing with check-in being in a separate building, but other than that, it was fine.

Beware!!

The room itself was perfectly fine, but the way the hotel is laid out is not perfect. Registration/check-in is in a separate building down the street. Also, when we got on the elevator, a couple, who had been there a few days, warned us that someone's dog was snatched by an alligator near the hotel. Sure enough, there are signs everywhere around that area, warning to not feed alligators. I would NOT recommend thinking you are safe to take a walk from the Hotel down to the beach, or out to get something to eat.

Nice spot for breakfast

We stopped here with our dog and had a very nice breakfast. The Waitress brought our dog a bowl of water and was very nice. Each table has an umbrella for shade. Our meals were good, and they do accept credit cards.

They allow dogs.. that's all I can say

Since this place was close to our hotel, and "looked" good from reviews, we decided to try it... We decided to sit outside, which is literally on the beach.. so, your thinking- cool vibe. Took a little longer to get service, but that has nothing to do with the review.. yep, they allow dogs,but no water offered- nothing. Waitress Took our drink order- the drink I ordered was the wrong size, and then my wife sat for 20 minutes, and after asking 5 times, for sweetener for her Iced tea before it finally showed up....Our food then arrived, and it was good, which is the only positive thing about the experience...Then we ordered another round of drinks. The Waitress came by after we finished eating and dropped off our check.. we never did get the next round of drinks we asked for.... overall,very disappointing

Fantastic

We just got back from our 4 hr excursion with Capt Carolyn. As everyone else has said, she is great. We got to see dolphins and manatees... It was our dog's first boat ride, but he did very well and Carolyn was very accommodating. If you are looking for an activity to do, I would HIGHLY recommend this.

Very dog friendly, but overrated otherwise

This place is very dog friendly which is good.. but, to be honest, the food is overpriced and underwhelming... I've traveled alot and I recognize overpaying for an "expectation"..

Great food.. neat place

Stopped by here for breakfast... the Key Lime French toast was awesome.. they have a few tables on the sidewalk that allow dogs.. we also walked by here last night to scope it out, and I will say there is no shade in the evening, so would only recommend for early in the day.. .

Also make note that they only accept cash.. but definitely would come back again

Good place to bring your dog, but...

First, let me say that I'm very appreciative of places that allow you to bring your pet.. there is a shaded outdoor area with fans, which is great for bringing the dog.. from a food and beverage perspective, however, this place is so so.. beer on tap was barely cool.. bloody Mary was watered down.... my steak was cooked very well, but covered in so much blue cheese that I had to scrape most of it off (and I LOVE blue cheese)..

My wife's seafood trio was very good, no complaints there
