I was booked into a garden view room but there was no garden. It would also help if there was at least a microwave and coffee maker in the room

My husband and i had an amazing stay here! The staff were incredibly kind! The hotel itself is very clean and quiet! The casino was great as well! We will definitely be coming back for another stay soon! They also have security that patrols the hotel and outside area which made us feel sage as we do not travel much or go to hotels! Definitely a bonus!

The only complaint is that there was no coffee maker in the room, so we had to get dressed to go to the coffee room and then bring it back to our room.

Everything was as good as one should expect at todays hotel prices. Morning coffee was good but a light serve yourself breakfast would also be nice since there are no bakeries near the hotel. The restaurant at the casino was very good. Enjoyed our stay.

Nice hotel and the staff were super accommodating. We were on a bike trip and they let us put the bikes in the room, which was great. Casino and the restaurant is a bit depressing - but we were not there for the gambling, so maybe it’s fine if you like casinos? Restaurant food was ok. Hotel rooms are clean. mattress was very soft - kept sliding into the middle of the bed. No coffee in the room - but there was a place to get some.

I really like staying here as it is usually very quiet. The beds are comfortable, the rooms spacious and nicely appointed. If you are looking for a good night's sleep in a hotel, I can recommend this. Only downside: there is no breakfast option available for those of us who get up early (before 7am).
