I will not stay here again. The hotel is pet friendly with dogs. I was next door to a loud dog that was yapping/ barking all night. Also thin walls, my room was next to elevator and was noisy. It was not a quiet room and could not sleep due to dog and noise. Plus , my view was horrible. It was the roof and equipment ( not a view)
