North America Pet-friendly Vacations

Frustrating Wedding Weekend - Major Operational Issues I stayed at The Kimpton Brice (Oct 16-19) for a wedding hosted on-site. While the staff is friendly, major operational failures meant the exorbitant amount we paid did not match what we received in any shape or form. • Check-In & Parking: Arrived at 4:30 PM. Despite needing to get ready for a 6 PM rehearsal, our room wasn't ready until 5:32 PM. We couldn't valet until checked in, forcing us to use street parking on the river side (which is actually cheaper). • Credits & Breakfast: Our rehearsal dinner bill could only be split 4 ways, so we couldn't use our $20 daily credits. The bride/groom had to pay the bill. Worse, the $50/day breakfast package we paid for was unusable due to a 45-60 min wait from severe understaffing. • Wedding Reception: The wedding ended at 4:30 PM, but reception bartenders refused to serve until 5 PM, forcing guests to buy drinks at the main bar. The steak/salmon was mediocre, and we had to cut steak with butter knives. Dirty dishes, cups, and ceremony chairs were left scattered in the garden from Saturday until Monday checkout. • Group & Property Issues: 5-6 other couples had check-in delays or incorrect rooms with zero compensation. Also, thin walls meant hearing dog fights and constant barking at all hours. The frontline staff tried their best, but management's conflicting rules made what should have been a celebratory weekend incredibly stressful.

I was just a little disappointed that we booked the king room with fireplace and the fireplace didn’t work, The front desk put in a work order but we didn’t get contacted. On checking out the manager was extremely nice and gave us a fair discount. The restaurant on the property is very good , the Lamb was excellent and the home made bread was delicious. We easily walked to the falls and surrounding area so we didn’t have to deal with additional parking. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay.

It was so strange , there wasn’t anyone on the front desk , You were speaking to a keyos . And that guy was useless , he didn’t show any instructions where my room was , I walked out back and walked under the level 2 entrance area and this huge dog came out barking like he was in a mission . The wiener came out screaming at the dog and cursing him , and all you could smell was weed . It was an awful experience. When i finally found my room ,people were so noisy . I ask the guy on the keyios was there a shuttle or a taxi service he says no , So it was and eventful evening .
