Switched rooms three times. First the key didn’t work due to error by staff. So instead of activating the key for the room they told us we were in they made us move across the property to the one we were “supposed” to be in. I was offered a beer for my troubles. Then the second room had no running water and we were moved back across the property to another room with barely an apology. Worst check in ever… rooms aren’t to bad though and the hot tub was nice.

Great Location!
Great location! My husband and I stayed for five days for a vacation away from the kids. Our hotel was right next to all the hustle and bustle. Service was great and friendly, they kept it simple and communicated via text which was convenient since we were out pretty much early every day and stayed out all day exploring so asking for more towels was done via text. The room was clean and the decor was cute and rustic, I enjoyed the art work hung in our room. The bed and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve had at a hotel believe it or not. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Great stay and great experience.

The room must have been a pet room. There was dry pet food on the carpet. Dirty carpet and the shower was awful. Could not even make coffee in the room. No microwaves. Only reason I gave two stars was the bed was comfortable and close to the casinos.

The folk coffee was great loved it! The room was not clean the carpet there were left over pieces on the carpet around the corners not. Room was big with balcony instead of an 1 metal chair you could have used nice loveseat. Walking distance to the casinos. I would go back if the price is good.
