From beginning to end, we had a fantastic stay and experience!! We received complimentary drinks to grab at the lounge, great welcoming service from all employees, and great food at their restaurant. The room, itself, was clean and comfortable. It had everything we would need. We are so happy with our stay that we are planning a couple future trips around the area now JUST so we can stay at this establishment again! Super pet friendly and honestly, family friendly, too. My four year old enjoyed the pool very much. He said it was so colorful and fun!! Can’t wait to come back.

I stayed in a pet-friendly room, and as soon as I walked in, I wanted to leave immediately because of the strong smell. It was quite unpleasant and very difficult to tolerate. I have stayed in other hotels’ pet rooms before, but none of them had this level of odor. In addition, the room felt quite old and worn, which added to the overall discomfort. I would not choose to stay here again. The parking lot was also very full, and I noticed that some cars from the neighboring hotel appeared to be parked in this lot as well.

There were very drunk, obnoxious people at the bar bothering guests. Employees were engaging in inappropriate conversation with the drunk patrons. Female bartender was unfriendly. In-room TV didn't work. Only positive was Andrea at the front desk, she was great.

Clean stay, service was okay, and interesting decor. Waited over 10min for shift change so I could play slots. Got inpatient and went to sleep, but probably better for my wallet any way.

Always a good stay. The only bad thing this time, is when we asked for an extra hour for check out they charged us 20 bucks. We have a baby, so we said yes since his sleep is crucial

Weather turned bad on a hunting trip, so we decided to find a nearby hotel for a warm bed and a shower.
