Good Morning.
We sure had an exciting weekend. We went to Lacey for an ACFA (American Cat Fanciers Association) cat show. This is different than the group we normally go to shows with TICA (The International Cat Association).
Before, I tell you about how great the hotel was I must tell you about our trip to the show. We had a very relaxing trip to the show. We took the bus. At first, I was confused because we caught the bus at the airport, I thought maybe we were getting on plane but instead we got on a bus. The bus was comfortable, and we got to look out the window the whole way to Lacey. When we got to the show hall, they were also having Norway days at the fair grounds. There were lots of Norwegian Elkhounds running around and people in very nice dresses and a viking ship in the parking lot. I thought maybe my human got confused, and we went to the wrong place. The cat show hall was behind the Norway festival. Fun.
Nora did really well at the show. She always does. She is very pretty and likes to show off. I napped in my hammock through most of the show waking up occasionally to hear Nora's report of how much fun she was having.
Okay now on to the hotel review.
We stayed at the La Quinta in Lacey. When we first walked in the lobby, there was this really great smell. My human got all excited because they had fresh baked cookies in the lobby. The lady checking us in was very friendly. The human had to sign a form that we would not destroy the hotel room. She doesn't know I write a travel blog. I would not destroy a hotel room. I was getting a little impatient waiting for the human and the nice lady behind the counter to stop talking and eating cookies. I really wanted to check out the room. Well, we finally made it to our room. Oh and it was worth the wait.
The first big plus about this room, the window.
The ledge was very wide, and there was a beautiful view of trees and birds.
The second big plus, two beds. I love rooms with two beds. I love to hop from bed to bed or use the convenient night stand in the middle as a bridge.
Well, we got all settled in the room. The human commented there was lots of room for her luggage and our cat stuff. The human went and got dinner which I am happy to report was just across the street. I like hotels with lots of restaurant close by, so the human is not gone long. The human likes it because she can walk. We ate a very nice dinner together, watched cable. The human went to relax in the hot tub for a little bit and then we settled in for bed. I spent the evening sleeping in the window, sleeping on the beds and snuggling with Nora.
In the morning, the human went downstairs for the free breakfast. She always likes it when there is free breakfast. She said this one even had really yummy omelets you could heat in the microwave. Okay here comes my only complaint about this hotel. You could not climb under the bed. The human liked this because it was easy to get us in our carrier and off to the show. I on the other hand like the frenetic running around of the human trying to move the bed, so she can get us in our carrier.
So I give the La Quinta in Lacey, WA five paws out of five.
The window ledges are wide and comfortable with a great view of trees and birds. If you are a dog reading this and need a spot to go outside, the wooded area also looks like a nice spot for a walk. The beds are comfortable with lots of pillows for humans and pets to sleep on. Two beds were a great bonus for jumping on and the night stand bridge was lots of fun. Nora liked the extra chair in the corner for a nap. The human liked the cookies in the lobby, close by restaurants, hot tub and great breakfast. The only disappointment was you could not climb under the bed.
And that is my report from Lacey. See you down the road.
