I stayed at Carla's on NYE as it was in walking distance to the venue we were going and we all know getting a car on NYE is no fun and $$$. I know some others commented on the fact that it was a garden unit, but it was pretty close to street level so I was pleased with the amount of natural light the unit got. Overall we had everything we needed and it is pretty close to a couple main buses for those visiting from out of town (also close to food, convenience store, etc.) and of course Horner Park. I didn't bring my dog, but this is our favorite dog park and did notice the doggy amenities in the closet, so if you're looking for dog friendly, especially, this is an unbeatable spot.
