"This property is clean, well maintained, in excellent location of walking distance from good dinning and shopping, and was of a fair value. The breakfast is wanting as you will get a muffin, juice, and coffee. There are hotels on the Cherokee strip that offer a water view with balcony and a full breakfast. It depends on what is important to you.
Overall, this is a very nice place and I would stay here again."
