Dogs stay free

Great place to stay if you have two big dogs. Going to the caverns there is a kennel there where you can keep your dogs for an additional fee. However, this hotel does not charge a fee to keep them there. This was a great benefit.

I spent the first 30 minutes killing mosquitoes in the room. Finally went to store bought mosquito repellent. The walls were dirty and/or greasy. Room was damp from poor operating AC. Mold on bathroom ceiling. I felt like I was out of country.

It was quiet besides being near a road. Was able to check with no problems but for a dog friendly hotel, there was no place I could take my dog to go without it being on concrete or rocks. I had a good sleep, it was quiet and no problems. I enjoyed my stay.

We reserved 5 rooms. Great check in. The older lady was very patient and friendly even though we had a big group of family. Rooms were decent and clean. Ac were a little noisy but understandable because they are older. And our room door didn’t lock lol but other than that our stay was good.
