"The property is run much better by Caesars than the previous owners. Very attentive staff. The only observation was smoking was being done in outdoor amphitheater near ADA area and people havd respitory issues. We had to leave venue and still having breathing issues unfirtunately. "

"Room was very clean and spacious with nice view of the lake from 7th floor. It was very quiet and closet was large. The only thing missing was the convenience of a hair dryer and a USB port that available near bed."

"Wow. Really nice resort and hotel. Super fancy and not over priced....in the summer. I bet the winter would be more expensive. Room was amazing - two huge rooms connected by a hallway/bathroom. Bed was very comfortable. Shower was great. You have to valet park here - but it is complimentary - no choice on self parking - you are right next to the Heavenly Chair Lift. Saw 4 bears on the ride over (it was dusk and they were in the neighborhood about 1/4 mile away). Very nice resort type hotel."
