We love staying at the Dana whenever we bring our pups. It is very dog-friendly. We stayed at the room with the bay view. There is a patio in the Junior Suites where the dogs can look out. There is a grassy area right outside the room, making it convenient for potty breaks and walks. The restaurant is fantastic. Everything was great.

Overall nice place in good location. Most staff were very friendly and welcoming. Enjoyed the stay. Shower/tub looked a little dated and would have preferred a bathroom door instead of a sliding privacy screen.
