We love the hotel. Stay once a year on 4th of July weekend to avoid the fireworks. You can still hear some, but it’s muted and makes humans and dogs feel safe and calm. (dogs and small child) The AC is quiet and efficient, beds are clean and comfortable! Staff is always very accommodating and sweet. Our only complaint is that the bedside lights and chargers never work.
