This was, by far, one of the best value-to-cost properties I've stayed with during a work trip. The rooms were clean, the complimentary breakfast was delicious, and the hotel was centrally located. Would definitely stay again!

We had such a great experience at Harrah’s Casino & Hotel! We stayed for one night to celebrate my birthday, and everything was wonderful from start to finish. Our room was nice, clean, and comfortable, and the staff was absolutely amazing—everyone we interacted with was so friendly and welcoming. The casino was a lot of fun, and we also had lunch at Cross Street Grill. The food was delicious, the prices were great, and it was such a convenient option right on site. Overall, we had an amazing birthday getaway and would definitely recommend Harrah’s to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing trip. We’re already talking about planning our next visit!
