Smoke-Free in Name Only
Pros:

I did not have a good experience at this hotel. Although it is advertised as smoke-free, the environment still felt like a smoking area, with a lingering odor that made the stay uncomfortable. The property is in urgent need of renovation. Everything feels very outdated, and the carpet in the rooms was in terrible condition—very unpleasant overall.
Another downside is the lack of nearby options—you can’t really walk to any stores or restaurants. Unless you rent a car, your only option is to go to the casino and eat there. Despite these issues, we ended up completing our stay since we were attending a volleyball tournament and were part of a group reservation.

Awful, never going back. Price is to high for low quality
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Everything. Room was dirty and I had to be moved to another room. There were hidden fees that were not discussed and they didn’t return my reservation fee. It’s been a nightmare to work with them I will never stay at this hotel again.

Dirty smoky hotel with an adult casino in house.
Pros:

The casino in the hotel was a nice bonus.

Cons:

The room was not very clean and they did not offer to clean in our entire 4 day stay. There was hair stuck on the shower wall that did not belong to myself or my daughter. The hotel smelled like smoke and the gym was too tiny with barely any equipment.

Place to sleep
Pros:

The staff was pleasant. Coffee brew was great to have. The employees were very pleasant

Cons:

First off when I went to go to bed I pulled back blankets-food crumbs! You need to put some type of air the cigarette smoke is a bit much. Like fans or something the casino was stale no air movement. Hopefully you get safes in the rooms.
