Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We appreciated the dog walk area and waste station near the side door—very convenient to the stairs! Thank you for carpeting the stairs, also. (Our lab prefers carpet to hard surfaces.) The kitchenette had everything we needed to prepare the dogs’ meals and have snacks ourselves.
It was quick and last minute. Everything was good.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Room and bed were good, but chair furniture could use some updating. Only real issue with property is parking. If you come in after 8-9pm, there may not be a parking spot.
I enjoyed my stay. The staff was nice, parking was easy and the rooms were clean for the most part. There were some spots missed and the bathroom floor could’ve been mopped a little better.
Beautiful property, staff was great. Unfortunately there was a club or something next door that played loud music until almost midnight so be prepared to change rooms due to the noise if you cant ignore it.
Stay was amazing, stayed for 8 nights, had kitchen with all the needed appliances, ac was good, bathroom was good, room was clean, for those wondering, the TV did have hdmi port for those who want to put something on the big screen. The staff were extremely friendly and nice, all of them who worked there during our stay. Very great time staying there, only complains we’re, found 1 cockroach 1 night, and 1 day fire alarm went off firetruck came, someone said it happens regularly, but don’t know what that was about. Lots of places around to eat, easy parking. 10/10 would come here again
This is not my first time at this location. My stay is always enjoyable. Some furniture could use some reupholstering but most things are in good condition and everything is fully functional. Bed and bathroom are clean, the rooms are spacious and the staff is friendly. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that some surfaces could do with cleaning every once in a while. Things like drawers, clothing hooks and frames and other wall hung items.
I will definitely stay there again. Overall very satisfied.
The gentlemen that checked us in had incredible welcoming energy, thanked us so many times for staying with that hotel and was so friendly. I will always return because of that!
