The room was clean and comfortable. Because the hotel is attached to a casino, the common areas smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The staff was friendly.

We just stayed 1 night at this hotel and can highly recommend. Check in was quick and efficient, room was clean, nicely cooled on a hot day and bed and pillows comfy. We ate in the very busy Mexican restaurant and it was tasty and a great price. They also have a gift shop with helpful staff and lovely jewellery.

Staff is outstanding. Helpful when needed and friendly. Our room was nice and clean. Beds are awesome! The housekeeping does a fantastic job. The air conditioner was very quiet and cooled our spacious room nicely! We visit this casino 3 times a year, and stay 2½ days each visit! There is one mexican food restaurant on site. So we never have to leave the casino. Never get tired of going there. Can't wait for our next trip!

Clean room, but lots of signs of wear and tear - leaking from the ceiling, TV signal coming in and out. The small attached casino does smell of smoke, and the surprisingly decent fitness room did as well. But the rooms smelled fine. Nice attached restaurant

It is difficult to review this one. A remodel resulted in a nice facelift, but it still smelled a bit old. The artsy touches were thought out, but the floor above us was noisy with footsteps. We actually received earplugs at check-in. The restaurant was extraordinary. Very nice.
