What I didn't like: The room didn't have a chair. Lighting was poor (maybe because there was no desk, it is thought light doesn't matter). Toilet was lower than average.

When you book here, there is no indication it’s a pet-friendly hotel pets unless you read the fine print. And that pets are allowed in ANY ROOM, even if you read the fine print. I am allergic to both cats and dogs, and felt awful during and after my stay. A pet-friendly hotel with carpets? There’s no way to rid a room like that of cat hair and dog dander. It feels extremely negligent not to make that clear to visitors. Also, a dog 2 doors down barked late at night and woke me early in the morning. The asst manager was less than interested in my commentary. The doors to the different sections of the hotel did not lock, so anyone could enter, which felt very unsafe. Then there was no coffee at breakfast. I finally found the woman in charge of the cafeteria, and she said she’d replace it. I asked how long she thought it would be, and she told me “as long as it takes me.” Her pants were falling down and as she walked away, I could see her butt crack, I kid you not. Particularly awful in food services. There was coffee available 12 mins later, after I had to get the manager to push her. You can’t make this stuff up. The hotel was really awful, mostly because of its hidden yes-to-pets policy (couldn’t that be reserved for specific rooms in a separate part of the hotel?) but also because the staff didn’t seem to care about it’s customers at all. Would never stay there again.

Okay for a stopover
Pretty good for one night. We are not animal people so didn’t really like the smell. There is that slight animal smell. Bed was super comfortable. Room was nice and large. Great having a microwave, fridge and tea/coffee making in our room. The hotel is located on the outskirts of town and not really walkable to town.
