Our stay was just ok. Area and hotel were quiet. Hairs on sink and towels in bathroom. Stained bed sheets, bug in room crawling on us during the night. Would not stay again but decent for price. Breakfast was just ok.

Upon checking in and entering my room the room had a strange smell. Additionally my bed was covered in dog fur. I didn’t realize this is a pet friendly hotel when I booked it but even so it seemed as if they had remade the bed from a previous guest and didn’t change the sheets at all which leads me to believe the towels weren’t changed either
