This property is contactless check in/checkout which was very convenient for us. They had a number you could text for any concerns which was very useful. The room was clean and pretty modern. Very walkable to casinos and shops! The only issues we had were the wifi was not working and our room TV did not work, which were not a huge deal for us. I would stay here again!

The room was clean,bed was comfortable, but could hear voices through the wall and there was a smell of pot coming in through the heater so had to shut it off. Also had difficulty checking in as the front desk was not staffed. Was able to call but sign was not on door, just happened to see it on the wall next to the door. Has the potential to be better.
