Amenities received mixed-to-poor mentions: cramped breakfast area, limited breakfast choices, no elevators, occasional lack of fresh towels and bothersome external factors (trucks, pets).

would book again with the hope that other patrons would be more courteous to other patrons
Pros:

The night shit was pleasant but could have been better trained. Very helpful with an unexpected and odd situation and handled the added stress well.

Cons:

The breakfast area was cramped and could have been organized better. Other patrons stayed at the tables conversing and watching videos on their phone loudly, and socializing instead of moving out for others to get in to get food.
Also did not appreciate the exit door being blocked by a patrons big black barking dog when I tried to reenter after going out to my car. The oner then just opened the door at sent the dog out the door I was standing in front of unattended. Dogs should be on a leash and the owner should be in control of the dog . It is the law.
The shower water temp kept changing HOT to cold and back and forth. Nice shower but tight for an adult, other than that,

Avoid this hotel
Pros:

Front desk clerk was friendly

Cons:

The room was not clean. We had to wipe the toilet down as there was black stuff on it. Tub was dirty and the floors throughout were dirty. They definitely do not mop between guests! When checking bed before we even sat on them (checking for bed bugs) when we pulled the sheets back they definitely never change bed skirt as there was lots of dust and gross stuff at the head of the bed. We never contacted the front desk to complain or to have the room cleaned. We dropped our bags on the luggage rack and went to the casino for the night and returned late. We checked out by 6am. My suggestion is they should have the management check rooms after staff cleans! And retrain them. I worked in hospitality and this is not acceptable at all! Also room had a bad smell to it, probably because it isn't cleaned properly. And you can here everything in the rooms next to you. I wouldn't recommend this hotel at all.
