3 stars and read fine print

It is a 3 star and rightful is. Read the fine print on this one. Very little to no extra bedding is provided in the room or at the front desk. A paper posted in the elevator said to call housekeeping during the day. That doesnt work when you are just staying overnight and check in during the evening hours. Room was clean not spotless as the couch had a nasty stain.Townhouse balcony room, murphy bed was softer than the upper level king bed which was very firm with flat pillows. Shower/tub combo was fine. Little sparse on towels. Mini fridge didnt work amd the microwave with the fridge get blocked when the Murphy bed is down.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Great dog friendly hotel with its own private grass area near the pool to go potty. There was a free continental breakfast... I wasnt interested in the offerings however it was free. I did like the little origami towels and tissues in the room. Close to a shopping center so if you forgot anything its like a 3 min drive.... petco is also there if you forget anything for your pup. Cons: The couch furniture was dirty with weird white and gray stains... even brown stains.... I stayed in the townhouse room 313 and I wouldnt even attempt to sit on any of the couches. The floor boards had minor scuffs which was fine. This room was super noisy... not from the neighbors but from the windows... the windows face the street and any car driving by was ridiculously loud. The bed and pillows were cheap and stiff. You would have to be dead tired to fall asleep on this bed. Also the elevator was suck open.... so trekking up to the 3rd floor was a little bit of a journey. Overall: Id be willing to stay here again for the space and the price. Location was convenient and close to the gas station and outdoor shopping center.Id probably put a sheet on the couches, bring my own pillow, and likely bring ear plugs. The stiff bed I could live with

Cute inn with perfect location

Very clean and neat inn, just outside of the shopping center which is very convenient. And 5-10 minutes from the fisherman wharf was the best. We were on a road trip, and parking was easy.
