We were in room 109 - was a nice room- unfortunately had a view to the back parking lot. Bed very comfortable, bathroom very clean- walk-in shower- unfortunately had no body lotion or special Amenities. Staff very friendly. Check-in was great. Lots of free parking. Full breakfast was good. Casino was separate but a 2 minute walk. This was our second time back and will definitely stay here again.

I was surprised, when my husband and I entered the room smells so good, it was very beautiful, the ambiance of the room is so loving, feeling so lovely. I would love to comeback most definitely. The front desk samira is pretty, lovely and very nice and accommodating. Food was great, fruits are fresh, coffee is hot and fresh too. The hotel location is amazing.

I stayed with my children, unfortunately the pool was under renovations, no child friendly place to eat, no microwave in our room, what looked like puke on the bottom of the bed frame, and if you want to have a bath and a shower at the same time? No problem because the tub backs up!
