It Was Great!

They had cookies at check-in! Super nice breakfast spread. Bathroom was a cut above. Very happy with the whole stay.

Almost 5 bones

We stayed one night in a pet-friendly room with two queen beds for $158, tax and $20 pet fee included. Pretty good value. The room was fairly large, not cramped at all, and the same goes for the bathroom --big countertop for your toiletries, adult-sized toilet (have you noticed the trend to install undersized toilets in a lot of places?), and a sink big enough to fill the ice bucket (my dogs love drinking out of the ice bucket). Clean, great bedding, and the heat/cool unit worked well. Also, floors are carpeted (not those slippery engineered wood floors). Breakfast was also pretty cool - they make you a made-to-order omelette if you want.

Only two things prevented a 5-bone rating. The dog relief area was non-existent. We found some bushes, but I'd rather have a true grassy area with good night-time lighting designated for dog owners. The other thing missing, which is something we really appreciate, is a protective sheet to put over the bedding to protect it from dirty paws.

No microwave! Tiny toilets!

The room was nice but innkeepers should know that folks who book a pet-friendly room, and who pay a pet fee, are probably not planning a nice dinner at a restaurant. Many of us, I believe, bring food to the room and heat it up in the microwave. I do, anyway. Not here -- no microwave! They had a microwave in the front office, though, and I was able to carry my food containers down there to heat up.

The other surprising minus - the day I arrived the outside temp was in the thirties. Got to the room, and the room temp was around fifty! No heat! Took about an hour for the little heater under the window to get the room up to 68. Most places I stay have the heater running before I check in, even if at only 62 or something.

Third minus - this is one of those motels that has the little child-sized toilets in the rooms. Perfect if you're traveling with a bunch of school kids. Not so great if you're a 6-ft 200-lb man. Luckily, my room was close to the breakfast area where I found a men's room with an adult-sized toilet.

Location is close to the interstate exit. There is a grassy area for dogs. Breakfast was above average. Check-in was easy. Parking lot was well-lit. Two-queen room was spacious. Floors not slippery.

Great place

The Inn is adjacent to a nice residential area where you can walk your dogs liked you lived there. For a quick potty before bedtime there is a grassy area next to the rear parking lot. Rooms were very nice. The Inn is located right on the main drag and about 1 1/2 miles from the city center. Easy to find. Easy to get to.

Much better than the usual "pet friendly"

You know how "pet friendly" usually means "pets are tolerated"? Not here. These folks are pet friendly.
We stayed here twice Dec/Jan 2021/2022. Two seniors with two 50-lb doodles. At check-in, greeted with a bag of mini-milk bones, some doggie bags, and a spare sheet to protect the bedspread from dirty feet (nice touch because we always feel horrible if our dogs muddy the bedcovers). Friendly front desk personnel. Parking near your room. Dog friendly rooms have the usual bare floors, but these floors are not slippery so we didn't worry about our dogs jumping down off the beds and losing their footing. Rooms were nicely furnished and clean. Private balcony with a river view. Showers had a ton of pressure and bathroom towels were the kind that you wish your towels at home were this nice.

Had one opportunity to interface with the housekeeping crew and they were as friendly as could be. I'm actually going to Google the soap they provide - I liked it that much. One half bone removed only because there is no specific outside "pet area." We used a barked landscaping bed along the back edge of the parking lot We travel thru Grants Pass several times a year and this is now our go-to place.

It was fine

Room was OK, floors carpeted (I consider that a plus), beds comfortable, very clean, bathroom acceptable. Minor quibbles--TV mounted lower then the bed so hard to watch TV in bed. Digital thermostat was wonky--we had to outsmart it by setting it to NOT what we wanted in order to get the room comfortable. Six lamps in the room--five with lampshades, one with just a bare bulb. Outside dog area was small but nice and grassy. We don't eat motel breakfast but I did cruise through and it looked like a nice spread with waffle makers, eggs, bagels, juice etc. Front desk staff very welcoming and nice. We thought the price was a bargain, and would definitely stay here again given the chance.

Not really set up for dogs

No grassy area outside. You need to walk to 1200 Street and there's a grass strip in front of the restaurant, but it's right next to busy traffic. The biggest room they had was two double beds, we knew this when we made the reservation, but we were still surprised with how small the room felt. This was a fairly inexpensive hotel compared to others in the area, however, so we got about what we expected. But isn't it nice when a hotel turns out to be nicer than expected? Minor Google Maps note--we asked Google Maps to take us to the Sleep inn in Ogden and it took us to a Motel 6. You have to specify "Sleep Inn Ogden" not "Sleep Inn in Ogden."
