Our hotel bathroom was dirty when we checked in. There was a used razor still in the shower as well as an opened can of shaving cream as if the cleaning staff never even touched the shower when cleaning. The towels had stains on them. And the staff were very rude. The only good thing about this hotel was how close it was to the casino.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Spacious Room, friendly staff, comfortable bed and quiet. Only thing I was disappointed in was the shower. The tub area was extremely slippery and the shower curtain hung into the bottom of tub about 4 inches too long. It felt tight with the shampoo/conditioner/soap dispensers up at the front instead of the bottom end of the shower wall.

Please be advised when booking through a third party site they can downgrade your room to something else than what you paid for. The staff member that checked me in was very rude and not pleasant at all. I spoke with the manager and she had more pleasant attitude seemed to care and told me what I needed to do.
