Pacific Inn

Pacific Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I usually stay at 5 star hotels but I booked here on short notice. I will ALWAYS stay at Pacific if I’m visiting. The manager and all staff were above and beyond. They furnished everything I needed. The room was spotless and kept that way during my 6 day stay. The place felt safe and cozy and had dog parks. The room had no carpet and it felt so clean. There was a little restaurant next to the hotel and they had the best food. Great way to start the day and their biscuits and gravy were so good. It’s called Grandma’s Kitchen. Great lunch and dinner and a lovely outdoor area that we could take our pup. Hotel is pet friendly also. Pacific is centralized to everywhere we wanted to go. I truly recommend staying here. It’s quaint and family friendly and I hugged the staff when we left. They made my stay perfect."
