9/10 Wonderful! (5,617 reviews)
"Great property with nice rooms. Plenty of options below hotel for any immediate needs. Meal ticket system for Sizzler breakfast buffet seems needlessly complicated. Enjoyed most everything about hotel other than the lounge. Lounge staff was unfriendly and service was glacially slow."
