Cons:

They wanted $55 a night for a pet fee. We didnt even stay there because it would've doubled our cost for the room. We would've been paying the same amount for one pet to stay as for 3 grown adults. Not worth it if you're traveling with pets.

I highly recommend this place
Pros:

The place was so clean and nice the staff was so nice. The food was great. Everything 10 out of 10 to me when I was reviewing the place. I saw a lot of comment about the homeless people around and yes I do Notes homeless around but they mind their business and they don’t mess with you. They just homeless and no one bothering me over there and it’s 100% safe to park your car over there and not worry about the homeless to do something to it.
