Pros:

I did not stay. They are listed as pet friendly but the room I booked did not allow my dog. I never would have booked if I would have known in advance. I drove 3 hours home instead of staying overnight in Wausau. I had a good time in Wausau before trying to check into this dump.

Cons:

When booking there is a place to say how many people and how many rooms but not a dog. If I was able to add my dog, I would have known my dog could not stay in the room I wanted.

Great price and stay that is about a mile from downtown, which is completely walkable via sidewalks.
Pros:

The staff were absolutely wonderful from check-in to check-out. They offered waffles in the morning, which was unexpected. However, you have to pay $1.25 per waffle, so take note of that if this is part of your decision-making process.

Cons:

I wanted to go for a run on the treadmill, but not only did the treadmill not work, none of the exercise equipment worked. All three pieces of equipment were completely unusable, and that was extremely disappointing.
