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.
