Mariposa Inn & Suites

"Our room was a townhouse family style with a Murphy bed, fireplace and couch and full bath on the first floor with a slider door out to a little balcony. We also had a fridge, microwave and safe . Upstairs was another full bath and a king size bed. The hotel is dog friendly which is exactly what we needed in a great location. This was exactly what we were looking for."
