"Cozy and comfortable stay!!! Room was very clean. Love the lodge decor! Great breakfast although it was crowded so there was a line. One suggestion would be to set up the breakfast area differently- maybe a double sided buffet for 2 lines. Great location close to everything including the “back” road to avoid the strip when needed. Nice indoor pool and workout room. Also- loved the laundry facilities! "
