I like that the hotel is close to the casino, but it needs upgrading. The outlets are no good or don’t work. Cheaper hotels at least have a microwave and/or mini fridge. The rest of the facilities are nice.

It was an overnight stay for work. Everything was clean and food options was amazing and next to a Walmart which was a bonus because I needed some personal items. Will recommend this hotel if I had to stay in this area again.
