Close to casino
Welcoming and salutations were professional and respectful
Meet my service dog needs with the utmost respect

Cons:

Definitely not the plushest or cleanest place I've stayed the smoking room was just that with evidence to reveal why with the linens manifesting burn holes n such but overall my stay was way above parv and the breakfast was a perfect way to start the day thank you niwas!

I might stay here again if it was free but I'd rather camp in the woods.
Pros:

location is OK. Nice towels.

Cons:

Dreadful conditions inside the room. While responding to the questions after rating the property a "2" Booking.com stated "Your ratings are very different from your overall score. Is this the score you meant to select?" but the questions skew the score in that they do not place enough weight on how dreadful the room was! A block down the street is a better quality inn option. The room may have needed repairs thirty years ago and looked like it was last renovated and redecorated in the 70s This is the type of place where they REQUIRE a $60 CASH deposit and check the room before you get the $60 back. You know how some motels have a small breakfast area and invite you to use a tray to take some food back to the room? Niwas states you will not get your cask deposit back if you take something from the breakfast area. Ick.

If you need a cheap place to stay to lay your head and wash your body, but I would definitely not stay again not worth t
Pros:

Staff was friendly. I was in town for an event and needed a last minute place to stay. Since they offered jacuzzi rooms, I upgraded to a Jacuzzi room. The room was clean. The down fall was that the rooms were not soundproof at all next-door to one of their nicer rooms was a family living there that had babies and children that were running and crying and you could hear everything until three in the morning. I don’t mind babies, but when I’m not home, I don’t wanna hear other people. I’ve stated a lot of places, and there was no sound barrier at all to help reduce noise between rooms. The area of town was very sketchy and there was a lot of people coming and going and they have people living in other rooms in the place as well when we see a school bus dropping off kids. would that be right across from the casino? We figured that it would be a little nicer and not a motel where people live for weeks and months at a time.
Not worth the money I paid and will definitely not stay here again.
No

Cons:

Staff was all friendly.
