Receptionist at check-in was super helpful and allowed us to get in 2 hours early. Thank you! Perfect pet friendly stay about 8-minute walk to the main part of town. Its quieter in this area which is nice. Their courtyard is very spacious and well decorated. The entire property is pet and family friendly. Our room had a kitchen unit which was very nice and the place was clean. It is an excellent choice for a pet friendly option and would be my first pick when I return to visit.

Since the area is very safe, even though our room was on the ground floor, it felt very clean and comfortable. Bottled water was provided, and we didn’t have any problems during our stay. You can also walk to the town of Solvang for a nice stroll. It’s very quiet at night, which makes it even more wonderful. This is definitely a place I would love to stay at again.
