I understand that you don't want to do this, however, it would be better than the $100+ fine for having a dog in the room and getting kicked out by the staff. I have had to do this on numerous occasions and I hope you will take my advise. A note to everyone: If you are going to stay in a hotel, motel, inn, or b&b; let the staff know ahead of time that you have a pet with you. NEVER try to sneak a pet into a room, no matter how quiet you think he/she is. 99% of the time you will get caught and pay an additional fine. |
I would never "sneak" any dog into a hotel room. Not only bause of the fine and being thrown out but having my
dog stolen. I hope that hotel chains start to understand that a lot of pet owners wish to have their pets with them on a vacation and accomodate them. For instance Universal Studios has set aside "pet friendly" rooms for guests. Not "service dogs" but pets. They pay $25 additionally a night per pet (2 is limit) and their rooms are apart from other regular rooms. Pet owners are spending a lot of money on their beloved pets. Business is money, it's time the hotel
business realizes this and catches up.
In conclusion, I am not changing to Universal not because I am stubborn but because my son with autism likes all Disney things and this vacation is for him. This is the reason we are going to Disney and staying inside. If he didn't have a mental disability we would be going elsewhere.
