"Roku" internet didnt work after multiple resets and calls to the front desk. TV would only stay connected for a few mins. No USB charging ports in the room. VERY dated. Comfy bed, however, dont expect a modern hotel with modern amentities.

Staff was fine. Calling this a hotel is a real stretch as it is really a motel. Room didn't have a bureau or any place to store clothing. Closet had the rod halfway down so everything that was hanging was hitting the floor. Chair in the room sounded like it was going to break whenever we sat in it. Almost no plugs to recharge things. Breakfast options were pretty awful. Basically, cereal, breads to be toasted, very limited other options. Overall it's just a room with a bed, which was comfortable.

This was the best dog friendly hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Clean room, excellent kitchenette and bathroom amenities, and free breakfast. The room heater was a bit loud when it turned on, which was the only negative aspect of our experience. Great stay!
