Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the Wayfinder Hotel was truly delightful. The warm welcome extended to my pets, complete with treats and amenities, was a standout feature and made us feel right at home. The beds were incredibly comfortable; I experienced some of the best sleep during my trip! However, the dining options could have been more varied, and while the atmosphere was lively at night, it was occasionally a bit noisy. Overall, the hotel offers a charming experience but could benefit from a few tweaks.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel, where the decor is both beautiful and inviting. The staff made my experience enjoyable with their warmth, and it was specially heartwarming how they welcomed my pets. The dining experience at the restaurant really stood out for its great food; however, the construction did create some minor inconveniences during my stay. The pool area was a wonderful spot for relaxation, but it seems there's still some work to be done to enhance overall guest experience.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel, which truly goes the extra mile for guests traveling with pets. The beds were super comfortable, making it easy to get a good night's sleep. I loved the hotel's aesthetic-beautifully decorated and cozy. On the downside, while the restaurant food was great, I hoped for a bit more variety on the menu. Overall, it offered a thoughtful and enjoyable experience, especially for pet owners.
My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience overall! The warm pet welcome and cozy atmosphere were lovely touches. I truly enjoyed the comfort of the beds, making it easy to relax after a long day. The restaurant's food was a highlight, but the dining area could have used a more vibrant setup. Also, the quick room service was a major plus, though I did notice a few minor cleanliness issues in the common areas.
My stay at the hotel was thoroughly enjoyable! The warm welcome for my pet was a great touch, with treats and amenities that made our arrival special. The comfort of the beds was unmatched, allowing for restful nights. The atmosphere in the lobby was inviting and lively, making it a great spot to socialize. However, I wish the dining options had a bit more variety to choose from during breakfast.
