Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property was an excellent value in a safe area with some great food offerings. It was very close to the Expo arena which was my reason for traveling there.
There was no elevator. No dishes or silverware or anything in kitchenette to use it. No paper towels. No hot water for a shower. Beds were so tight in the room that you couldn't get in on the side by the wall. The towels were very thin.
Very disappointing stay.
I probably would not stay here again unless there wasn't anything else available. Room was under 60 degrees when we entered, no blow dryer in the room, curtains are NOT daylight blocking but actually see-thru. Hotel definitely needs updating!
Good, basic, clean room for 1 night stay. Had a fridge, microwave, stovetop & kitchen sink- that we did not use.
Great price. Location was great for a Mystic Lake Casino event. 4 miles from casino & $200 cheaper per night.
The door would not lock, you could walk right in to the room. They did not get someone to fix it until 9:00 at night and did not finish until 10:30. Mouse trap in the kitchen. Smelled like marijuana and the front desk was only open during check in.
