Location was great. Very close to casinos, shopping and dining. Also walkable to heavenly gondala and lake beach. For the most part staff friendly (not best customer service on some occasions). The on-site brewery was a plus. Room was average, some smell like carpet was damped. Restroom was not the cleanest (needed some sweeping and mopping) We had to air it out for the first day. We asked housekeeping for towels on the 3rd day and we never got them. Overall it was okay.

Hotel staff is very nice and friendly, parking is first come first serve. Beds were clean and comfortable, everything else not so much. Room felt dark only having one light in the middle of the room. Room had a ton of stains on carpet and the fan in the room was caked with dust. Bed liner on the bottom had multiple stains and furniture was pretty beat up and inside room felt dated. Pretty nice hot tub and brewery on property and lots of areas to hang out. Overall stay was okay biggest plus was that the beds were comfortable. Would stay again in a pinch if needed but not my first go to.

Overall very easy experience. Breakfast/Coffee shop is great. Sadly we were locked out of our room at 1am. Had to wait for staff to come and make new cards for room. Other than that it was a good stay.
