It was clean, new, and the staff was friendly and accommodating.
Amazing. Room was very clean and modern. They upgraded our room for free when we checked in, friendly staff. 12 minute drive to the casino, in a good location. 10/10 would recommend.
Clean, renovated rooms. Perfect for one night stay to visit the casino. Walls are thin so be sure to pack earplugs. The bathroom sink faucet made the entire sink area wet.
Such a great experience! The complimentary breakfast was delicious, I just wish they changed up the breakfast items but overall delicious. Our room was clean and the beds were comfy and the hotel was pretty quiet. The front end staff were kind and pleasant.
Pool was not working and another group checking in complained and got 10% off their stay. I was tired of waiting so did not feel like arguing but it should have been applied across the board
We had a horrible experience at another hotel and had to find a new hotel at 10pm. This hotel was a lifesaver! Clean room, friendly and helpful staff. Hotel seems relatively new.
