Perfect and pleasant.

Really pleasant stay. Went with my son for a college visit to Union and the hotel choices were slim. Went for the Landing because it was least expensive, but surprisingly ended up being the best lodging option in the area! Super friendly staff, very clean, and a Starbucks right down in the lobby. We didn’t check out the casino, but guest rooms were very nice.

I was told that the parking garage was free, but i had to use my credit card to enter and exit, and it charged me $20. Pretty dumb.

No cell service, no Wi-Fi.

Hotel itself has barely any cell service on many of its floors and when we were there, the Wi-Fi was down in most of the hotel outside the lobby. We struggled to try to communicate with the family members we were there to visit.
