We got a non smoking room. Come to find out they allow pets but did not see anything about that when booking room. No problem but they don't specify. My daughter has dog and cat allergies. We checked in just before 11pm and when we got to are room we found out that there had been pets. The room smelled awful like pet urine. Went back down to see if they had other rooms that don't allow pets but the check in lobby was locked up.

I have stayed here one night a year for 9 years. I like about everything they have and do. The breakfast is at a regular restaurant and very good. Only changes I would like is to have the rooms updated. They are old and outdated

Room was clean but needs some upgrade (carpet, USB ports, WiFi security). Beds were comfortable. Quiet. Helpful if front desk would open earlier than 8am to pick up breakfast vouchers and for checkout.
