The pet are is fine. It’s located on the side of the hotel. The staff provided dog treats when we checked in. Rooms are nice, nothing crazy fancy. It works for our needs. Full kitchen, king bed, chair and ottoman, desk/dresser. Beds are high so for small dog get up and down the bed the ottoman was needed.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was a girls getaway from the family. We wanted a nice quiet hotel. That’s exactly what we got! Very clean and the front desk was so helpful and although we came early for check in, the front desk was so accommodating and was able to get us a room early. We were able to nap and enjoy what amenities they had. We did not use the gym but the gym looked brand new along with the laundry services and there were kitchen applicances that you could borrow as well. Overall, very nice stay, thank you. It’s hidden in the back of other small business. There’s nothing around the hotel to walk too. A block down, there is a small shopping center for food but not walking distance with little kids. I’d say it’s a hotel for business travelers.
