Overall this Beat western was a good selection as it is very convenient to dining, shopping, etc. The breakfast buffet was good. Staff was excellent. My only suggestion is for pet friendly options: the grass around for them to use needs to be as good as the grass in front of the hotel. Didn’t feel comfortable taking out small pet there, even though we were charged a pet fee. Would stay here again if in the area.

Great location for walking through town. Staff was friendly and attentive to all my needs. What I didn’t care for was that the air conditioner unit was very noisy so I had a difficult time getting a restful sleep. I would recommend this hotel and stay there in the future.
