11 Howard Dog Friendly Review
11 Howard holds a failing F Roch Rank, which is a sobering start given the genuine effort visible in some corners of its dog policy. Most rooms here are dog friendly, meaning you are unlikely to be shunted to a single designated wing, and dogs are welcome out on the terrace or patio, giving you both somewhere to stretch your legs together beyond the four walls of the room. The hotel's setting near green spaces and parks nearby is a real plus for anyone travelling with a dog who needs regular outdoor time, and it does a good deal to compensate for the shortfalls found elsewhere in the stay. There is a sense that the bones of a dog friendly hotel are here, even if the finish is patchy.
Inside the room, your dog is given a proper bed to settle into along with real food and water bowls rather than anything disposable or makeshift, which lends a touch of homeliness to the stay. There is a refundable deposit of $150 per night for incidentals, charged at check-in. On top of that sits a flat $150 one time deep cleaning fee, which is a steep charge given that the ledger ties no extra inclusions to it beyond the standard room kit already mentioned. Dogs may stay in most rooms, but they may not be left alone there, so your plans need to factor in someone remaining with your dog throughout the stay rather than popping out solo.
The restrictions are worth weighing carefully before booking. A weight limit of 20 lbs rules out larger dogs entirely, and even for those under it, you are capped at two dogs per room, so a larger pack travelling together will need to spread across multiple rooms. There is no bar, restaurant or lounge access for dogs, no garden or dedicated dog space, and no dog wash area, so bathing after a muddy park visit will need to happen elsewhere. Practical extras such as poop bags, treats, walking guidance, dog-walking or dog-sitting services, grooming and trained staff are all absent, leaving you to handle the day-to-day yourself. This stay suits the owner of a single small, well-behaved dog who is happy to stay close by at all times and doesn't need extra services laid on; anyone with a larger dog, multiple dogs, or a need for on-site pampering should look elsewhere.
