Was pet friendly, right off the highway, and had a small pet area for our dog. Front desk was very nice. My only “complaint” that wasn’t really a complaint was just that the floor we were on had a very heavy air freshener smell, so did our room. Beds were very comfy. Toiletries options were very nice.
