Clean room and very nice staff. Breakfast was delicious. The listing was a bit misleading. We opt’d to pay significantly more for this hotel because the listing said there was an “off leash area” for our dog. The staff did not know what the listing was talking about, but they did let me know there was a large grassy area across the street by the water. There is a dog park a short drive away. Additionally, if you play PokemonGo, there are a ton of stops. My family enjoyed this.
