SimoneGermanyFür den Preis alles Tip top 👍
Etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber gepflegt. Bis auf die fleckige Badewanne war alles Tip top sauber. Leider hat unser Bett so gequietscht, dass ich die halbe Nacht nicht schlafen konnte. Der Pool ist groß und nicht…

MyriamItalyFamily one-night stay
We stayed here for one night with our family of 5 (kids aged 8-6-4). The room was very clean and spacious; helpful staff, good breakfast: overall, a very good experience.
One point -- they could have given us bedsheets…
JulieUnited StatesIt was ok.
Cleanliness
Beds were bouncy so when husband moved the whole bed shook. AC didn’t reach the opposite side of the room. Ran out of breakfast burritos.

Questions about Dinosaur Inn & Suites
What time is check-in and check-out at Dinosaur Inn & Suites?
Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Dinosaur Inn & Suites allow pets?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Dinosaur Inn & Suites have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Dinosaur Inn & Suites have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Dinosaur Inn & Suites?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 4:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Dinosaur Inn & Suites?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
