Give it a try after renovation
Currently under renovation. Rooms were very run down and not cleaned well. We had a family of 6 that could not be accommodated by the room that was booked (although the description said it could sleep 6). Very small (chair size) sofa bed. The breakfast was good with ample variety.

Great service
Customer service was wonderful, and the place was clean. Only issue was that the 2nd elevator was not working so it took longer than usual to wait for the one elevator.

Mediocre
Disappointing stay. Had a confirmation for a room with a King bed, but got two Queen beds. Power shade on the window was broken so no daylight in room. Being near the casino allows them to charge a high rate for a mediocre room that needs updating. The lady at the front desk was nice.

Hotel was clean. Difficult to access, do yo road construction. I realize this isn’t your fault. Room conditions were clean. TV kept blinking on and off and the air conditioner was making a terrible noise everytime it came on. I was in room 126. Might want to check that out.

Meh
The suite was very large but not very comfortable. There were large stains all over the carpet and the pullout couch was dirty once opened. Most unsettling was a smoke detector in the bedroom that was covered in plastic. Luckily, there was a second detector in the living area. Also important to note--parking is limited and mostly taken up by construction vehicles. It was fine for one night, but I would not return.

Very nice and comfortable.
It was an amazing stay! The room was huge and very comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and I slept very well. The area was quiet, breakfast was good and there were no issues at all. The price and value was very reasonable. I just wish I had a reason to stay longer.
