Our check in was easy, and all of the staff were dog friendly, and helpful with guiding us on where to shop and give our dog a bath. And despite the number of work trucks in the lot at night the hotel was extremely quiet. Our room was clean and the bathroom was surprisingly large and comfortable. We would stay here again.
