Good last-minute stay with 2 dogs

This was a last-minute booking, and I was glad to find a place for my dogs and me to stay. Past reviews were accurate: it’s in a quiet, corporate-canyon area. As a solo female traveler I felt safe.

The Room Does The Job

The location is really good. The room was updated and clean. The check in was fast and friendly. The bad The bed and pillows were not so good. However, for the price and the necessity of quick place to sleep at an affordable price, this stay checked those boxes

Floors in hallway and room were lumpy, laminate flooring in room was spongy and not well laid, and lumpy underneath. Lighting was all a harsh white flourescent, very glaring. towel rack bar detached from wall. Air conditioning unit was noisy and maybe needed to be serviced, was tepid. Very clean room, comfortable bed. Rest of the amenities were mildly unpleasant.

Kinda mixed review

I have no microwave. Housekeeping never asks me if I need anything, and I did somethings. Make the bed with clean bedding. Add tp, garbage bags, clean towels. I’ve been here 7 days. 5-7 more coming. Calling front desk is olllllld technology. Couldn’t hear or accent so thick I couldn’t understand. So for a very good price this place is excellent!!!! Wish I had a fork. Wish I had a microwave. The room is updated and the bed is comfy. Now, I came in in a wheelchair. No bid deal but why did the front desk put me on the 3rd floor and waaaaaay at the end???? Why? No I’m not going to ask him and disrupt his private phone conversation!!! I did that once and I genuinely felt guilty that I disrupted his conversation on his earphones. My poodle and I are very comfortable and that’s why I did give good marks.
I call it a nice view!
TV is good!
My Clair asleep on my foot so she will know when I get up.

It was very dog friendly. The whole hallway smelled like they dumped a bottle of fevreeze which I am guessing was covering up the stain smells on the carpet. Bathroom had a lot of dirt stains everywhere and the vent was covered in dirt so much so there was hardly any whole left. The dogs were arguing and we could hear them all in the hallways.
