Pet & eco friendly, cost-efficient, and convenient for all your Arizona needs, The Pines Inn & Suites (formerly Pines Motel, not to be mistaken for Motel in the Pines) is the only place I'd choose to stay when visiting Sedona. To Sedona, the Pines Inn & Suites is ONLY a 20 min drive. In addition, there are plenty of grocery stores, fast food joints, gas stations and more conveniently located near this lodging.
The Pines Inn & Suites is locally owned by Cory & Marta who are the absolute sweetest. They are super relaxed and friendly. Cory also owns a real estate agency next door, so if you're looking for a new home in the area, why not stop in?
We had our pups with us (apologies to Marta, Cory, and our neighbors for the loud howling & yapping by our husky, maltese, and poodle) and though they only have a pet limit of 2, they were gracious enough to allow us to stay. If you are also a pet parent, here are a few guidelines: $20 pet fee+ $5/night (it's a steal if you ask me), limit of 2 pets, and pet/s can only be allowed in the room unsupervised if they are well-behaved and for a maximum of 2 hours. If you receive noise complaints like we did, they will call you first, and will proceed to enter the room to keep your kids in the office.
Benefits of the room: clean, includes a microwave, fridge, and coffee machine, and if you're a bit quirky like me, I judge a room a lot by the sheets, and yes, the sheets are comfy! Also, the touch of organic products and makeup removers were heaven sent.
Only downside is: if you have iron feet or are incredibly clumsy, your first floor neighbor/s will hear you if you reside on the second floor.
Otherwise, THANK YOU MARTA & CORY for your hospitality & kindness to us & our kids.
