The staff was professional, friendly and attentive. Property was well kept, rooms were nice and comfortable beds. Only issue we had was a defective toilet that was attended to but not resolved. I would suggest numbering parking spots to match rooms. Overall, the Marlo was outstanding and we would stay there again.

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.
