Place was still undergoing renovations, but everything was brand new. Super clean. Breakfast buffet great in morning. Casino a mile away. Very easy. Only thing site said that there was a free shuttle with an a mile. There was no shuttle service. Didn’t bother us at all, but just so you know there is no shuttle .

DO NOT STAY!! AC doesn't work, and no working hot water in the bathroom. They will tell you lies that the temp cant be adjusted, the real problem is the AC isn't working. Its 80 degrees in the rooms. And no hot water in the showers. Dont be mislead like the hundreds of others in the past few months.

The road up to the hotel was full of potholes. The toilet flushed slowly. It was hard to control the room temperature. We had to eat breakfast in our room due to construction.

This place is a joke. We booked it for the hot tub and pool for kids. The pool was green and nasty. The hot tub was cold and unuseable. There were no towels and mold everywhere. There was mushrooms growing inside window sills. When brought to staff attention the manager proceeded to grabbed the mushrooms and asked if we wanted to make spaghetti. Eww that can get you sick. The room was small and smelled funny. There was mold in the bathroom. Horrible place to stay. If it wasn’t so late we would’ve went somewhere else. Not happy. !!!!!

The Hotel was under renovations, the staff did not let us know we had figure this out on our own. The hotel was dirty and nasty. Bed was full of hair, sheets not changed at all. Washroom shower floor dirty, toilet disgusting, sink was dirty mirror not cleaned at all. Over all very unacceptable we left within 20 minutes after checking in totally unacceptable.
Please train your staff to let customers know what is going on (renovations) provide a room that is clean and acceptable.
thank you

The pool was advertised, but it was green with likely algae growth. The front desk told me it was supposed to look like that. The bath also had no stopper, which makes it hard to give baths to children. Ice machines didn't work.

Great place to stay at…
The room was very nice and our stay was good, close to where we needed to be to conduct business and see family and friends. The hotel was difficult to find but that was because we were not accustomed to the location. Would definitely stay here again.
