Great stay
Nice hotel. Clean and comfortable. Felt safe walking dogs late at night. Plenty of walking space outside for the dogs as well.

My one night stay was very good, the room was nice and well maintained, staff was very friendly and I even got a free upgrade thanks to some unexpected bookings. Location isnt great, but it's centrally located, so it's not far to places you want to go. Would definitely stay here again.

Good dog hotel
I stayed here for a dog show at the expo center that is attached to the hotel. If you are coming for convenience this hotel can’t be beat. They have lots of grass areas to potty dogs. There were also lots bag/trash stations, but unclear if the dog show put those out or the hotel as they were permanent stations. They no longer serve dinner, but the bar does stay open. Breakfast in the morning is a buffet station and priced reasonably. Same thing everyday, but one hot carb option changes (pancakes, waffles, French toast, biscuits/gravy.) They said they don’t clean until the 3rd day, but they didn’t clean then either. We had to go to the front desk for towels, Kleenex, and toilet paper. We left trash and towels outside our door on the days we knew they weren’t cleaning and they did get picked up/emptied. Overall, if you need a hotel that takes dogs and are doing something at the expo center, this is the place to stay. If not, you can likely find better accommodations that are renovated.
