The room amenities were more bare/basic than expected, but the breakfast and hospitality were great.
Pros:

The blonde gentleman at the front desk was the BEST ever. Give him a raise!

Cons:

We could have had more towels! The bed was extremely firm and caused me some upper back pain. My husband was fine. The gentleman at the front was understanding and gave me two huge comforters to soften my side of the bed. That night, I felt like I was sleeping in a cloud. Good breakfast and a nice single serving coffee machine.

Quick stop before heading home
Pros:

Easy access to casino, quick check in, breakfast offered. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

First hotel that did not offer an ice Bucket in the room. Had to go to checkin desk to get it. After getting it I must say it was functional but it was so low quality to the other hotels we stayed at I didn’t understand why it wasn’t in the room…lol.
Most hotels when you walk in your room make you feel cosy or comfortable. This one has a very business not homey feel to it.

Pros:

Love the new pool!! What a nice upgrade!! We always stay here as our 1/2 way spot when traveling home from Texas…and also love to go to the casino right next door!

Cons:

There truly isn’t anything we do not like about this hotel! We have stayed here a few times and will always continue to do so on our travels! It never disappoints!!
