Do not stay here! It's billed as a Howard Johnson's but is really a residential motel with staff from the casinos living there. The noise level is incredible, and we left in the middle of the night.

It would be be a lot better to have a casino room on the bottom floor for guest to play and the rooms could be a little bigger for walkers or wheel chair access. Breakfast could of had proteins and not so much sweet stuff. Fruit and protein. Everybody was super nice and respectful. Thank you for the stay will do it again some day.

It’s the worst hotel I’ve stayed in. Wyndham should really look into this hotel. It was rundown and dirty, location feels unsafe with rundown buildings. Breakfast awful, only breakfast bars and coffee/fountain juice. On top pf this, i paid a premium price of $184.00. I would not choose these hotels again.
