It was definitely cheaper than staying downtown. We were there for the Darius Rucker concert. We liked the breakfast included and the gym facility. We did not like no A/C, the pillows or the bed. The drive isn't bad to go to the casinos (you have to be prepared to pay $25-30 for parking), but I don't recommend it if you plan to drink as the road is very windy, dark and precarious. The shuttle service is helpful, but if you're out late, you are paying to get back between $30-50. The facility is spread out, so be prepared to walk around a little bit. Plenty of covered parking. This place would be ideal for winter time as it seems very cozy. There are activities for a nice family vacation. Staff were very helpful and polite. This is a time share, so be prepared for it to be offered, but they weren't pushy, which was pleasant. They understand you are there to relax.
