Very pet friendly..the room seemed clean. The outside is not in good shape at all. Service came everyday and seerp and changed sheets and garbage and renewed soap and toilet paper and towels. Seemed cpean except tge last day it smelled like cigarette smoke? Not sure about that. Did pay forca room with a spa but spa was broke. Free coffee and friendly staff. Dog park attached was just a mess, mostly sog owners but poop bad and container were missing. The apartment building next to it was almost complete and some just didnt finished it and left a large smelly dumpster full stench! Well the bears loved it and came thru the property constantly. Kinda scary at times when you are walking a dog and a 400 lb black bear comes thru or is in the dumpster. Place needs cleaned up period! The area is run down near the motel. I wasnt scared walking thru there at night except for the bears. Unfortunately we travel with our dog at times. So there are some options but not many. No food on site. Buy food is within walking distance.

We enjoyed our stay. The property is older but the room looked newly remodeled. The motel has a stop in its parking lot where the trolley stops, makes it very convenient. The room was very nice, air conditioner was very cold which was great. The employees were very nice and polite. Would recommend.

Not bad

Not bad especially for the price. The area is not a great area but the room was clean. The a/c was not great. The front office was stingy with towels as we had 4 people in the room and they only wanted to give us two towels a day and when we asked for more they acted like it was such a hassle. The pool was on too.
