Easy to find, check-in in went smooth, abundant outlets in the room but nothing on the walls to dampen the sound. Breakfast was good with a different twist to the warm items. For being near an interstate, the rooms were quiet and the bed slept well. Good place for a weekend stop over. No place to unpack clothes so unless you like living out of a suitcase you might find another location for a week stay. Close to the casino if that’s your interest.

Staff were very friendly to me and my dog. I was in late and up early because of travel, and they were available to help me. I left before a full breakfast was out, but they encouraged me to grab what was out without complaint. Convenient to casino but because of changes to the highway exits, a bit confusing how to get there off the interstate. Overall, an excellent choice for me and my dog!

Had to book this room last minute due to a power outage in the area. Staff was wonderful and considerate regarding the situation and had many others there under the same circumstances. Hotel and room were very clean. We did not use the pool but it looked very clean. The breakfast was delicious and very appreciated.
