Location was not worth the price that we paid.
Pros:

Location.

Cons:

The value wasn’t there. The towel quality was low and very thin. There was a lot of dust in the room during our stay and overall just felt for what we paid, wasn’t worth the price tag.

Overall such a small room
Pros:

The location is great

Cons:

The room is so small for 4 adults and the shower is extra small that my husband and my son have to squeeze themselves in it and to bend their heads to use the shower, the floor is so dirty that our feet become so dirty and that’s so disgusting

Great location but underwelming room/amentities
Pros:

The location was really awesome and a short walk to the casinos and shopping!

Cons:

The property just felt cheaply put together. Cheap bedding, decor and the room just had an off odor. I’m not sure if maybe the a/c needs to be serviced but it just almost felt muggy at times.

Walkable, for all needs.
Pros:

The amenities were great. The room was clean. The no contact with people worked just fine because they were in contact with me through my phone. All needs were met.

Cons:

I can't think of anything I didn't like.
