I brought my dog with me who is not a service dog, but a support dog. The staff was very accommodating, and when it came to breakfast offered to watch my dog for me while I went in to get some food. I was super impressed with the attention that I saw that they gave to their guests.

A few upgrages would have made our stay better.

The owners were very friendly and always willing to make your stay as good as they could. The hotel was in desperate need for an update and repare. The complimentary breakfast was very limited. The beds were relatively comfortable, but the rooms were very small.
