Parking was easy, the front desk staff was welcoming, beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the temperature control was easy. The shower had nice shampoo, conditioner and body wash dispensers. My only (very minor) complaint was that the bedding itself made a crinkly noise when we moved in bed, which was sort of loud. But other than that everything was great!

They have changed their dog rules since we were there last year. You can’t leave dogs in room while you go eat. Should tell you that before you come so you have opportunity to leave dogs at home. The 100.00 dollar fine is a little much for leaving your dogs for 1 hour. Messed up our anniversary dinner.
