We love how friendly Tracee is and how welcoming she is with my Service Dog Molly. There was a bit of confusion over payment as Expedia had already taken payment out of our account. However we managed to get it sorted.

We had a very comfortable night in the room put aside for travellers with dogs as it has a safe lockable area. Our dog was very happy to run around the garden. Bathroom / shower was spotless with plenty of room.
