Good value for one night
Pros:

Clean room. Convenient location to drive to BV and activities in the area. Easy check in

Cons:

Construction quality was low in the room. It looks good from a distance but you can tell that everything was done cheaply up close. Curtains didn’t black out enough light. Room smelt a bit musty and of cleaner.

Pros:

Clean rooms and attached private patio.

Cons:

I was surprised to find out the pet fee was $32 per pet per day. Not a big deal but I feel like this could have been disclosed during booking instead of being a venmo scan and pay once you enter the room.

Welcoming Atmosphere with Attention To Detail
Pros:

I could really tell that everything in the room was set up very meticulously with a lot of effort and thought. Everything felt so homey and clean and it was the best room my husband and I had stayed in our whole trip. It was nice to finally get somewhere where we felt welcomed and able to really settle in and relax for the night. I appreciated all the little details that were included such as the makeup towel, the dog blanket for pets, the binder with information about the area, the microwave/fridge, and the makeup mirror. Everything was perfect and outlined in great detail with clarity. Would always recommend this place!

Cons:

No complaints! Seriously it was perfect:)

Pros:

This is the best place to stay with a dog. They provide everything needed to easily care for your dog. Loved the fenced patio leading to enclosed dog area! Also loved the coded entry for the room. Very convenient.

Very convenient for the right price.
Pros:

It is a great place to come in sleep and move further. It is of the main highway but we did not hear traffic at all. You park right in front of your room and get a code to get into the room. No check in required. It is nicely remodeled and has all the typical motel things in it.

Cons:

Could be a little cleaner, one bed side lamp didn't work and the makeup mirror light in the main room was also not working. So it was nicely remodeled but missing some TLC.

Clean, quality pet accommodations, high pet fees
Pros:

The pet accommodations were high quality: private fenced back yard, larger fenced gravel walk/play area, plenty of poop bags and trash cans around the property, a dog blanket for allowing your dog on the bed or to make a soft spot in the floor for them, and a specific towel for cleaning up water bowl drips or accidents.

Cons:

The Booking.com listing did not mention any pet fees. Upon arrival we discovered the fee was $32 per dog, per night. That seems really high and we were frustrated about not having been given advance notice about it.
