Overall quality has deteriorated

I feel like the quality at this hotel has deteriorated. The last time I was there, they were pumping out the sewage tank while we were eating our breakfast and the entire lobby smelled of sewage. This time the door to the room didn’t work. One of the doors in the room didn’t work as well. Additionally, the guitar in the room, which I enjoy using when I come to visit was missing multiple strings and they had no replacements at the front desk. I told the manager about these items and he apologized, but downplayed it. Breakfast was late the following morning and I had to leave to get to work and missed it. I told the manager about this on the way out, and he also downplayed it. I called to mention my experience on the managers line but never received a call back. Overall, I am disappointed because this is not the quality I have come to expect when I stay here in the past. On top of that, the prices have gone up significantly. I hope the hotel will take this feedback to heart because my sense is they are trying to do well.

Did not like the long walk to check in. The beds had weighted or very heavy blankets. They were very uncomfortable. No other blanket options were in the room. Breakfast was awful. We didn't check out the restaurant or the brewery. But the restaurant was very busy.

Dogs and beers - what more do you need

The hotel is in good repair and clean. But it is set up for your four legged friends - concrete floor, older but comfortable furniture. The amenities are great - beer fridge in the bathroom and mini-fridge in the main room are stocked with BrewDog’s best. The dog park could use some tending to - grass was pretty high and some areas of mud. If you’re looking for a low key getaway with your dogs and enjoy good beer and elevated bar food, you’ll enjoy this place. If you’re looking for luxury and spas, move along.

Unique Experience, but Dirty Rooms

My 16 month old and I were on a road trip home and stopped to stay at the Dog House. I was super excited to see the brewery and overall it was a decent stay, just not exactly a good fit for my toddler. Pros: •The vibe is super cool and overall a really unique place. •The attached restaurant was a plus. •VERY amazing staff! Cons: •Very long walk to carry luggage in. •DIRTY - I had to wipe off a thick layer of dust on the headboard (picture below) and the floors were pretty dirty as well. •No microwave and the only fridge provided is a beer fridge. •Restaurant food was kind of overpriced for the quality.

It was a really fun concept. I arrived and all seemed great but I continually had to go to the front desk because my key card was not working. I had to request housekeeping daily and ask that I get fresh towels daily. I had the opportunity to meet GM Dana who was very receptive and willing to help with anything. The other staff seemed very disorganized and more interested in just shooting the breeze and partying with coworkers. Over all I was disappointed. This concept was great idea but they need more training in hospitality to make this the experience they want for visitors.
