"Water did leak out from the shower door at the entrance but the floor towel kept the floor dry. The AC was making noises but the maintenance team fixed it next day when we requested it. When we asked for housecleaning, only the bathroom was clean. No turn down on the beds. Food at the restaurant was great and so was the free breakfast. Would stay here again."

"We were traveling with children—one of whom was just a year old—and were assigned a room on the third floor; since the hotel has no elevator, carrying a stroller and suitcases up the stairs was very inconvenient. So, if you are traveling with kids, keep this in mind. Otherwise, everything was great, and the children were delighted to sleep in the bunk bed."

"It is always disappointing when you get a great deal on a hotel and get the worst room. Our room was small, view of another wall and the roof, and right next to the elevator. I did ask for an upgrade when we checked in, which the employee seemed willing to do, had trouble with the computer, went to ask his "manager" came back and said, "oh, those rooms are no longer available". Very unfortunate. I also forgot about the smoke smell in Casino hotels. We were there for a summer concert which was very convenient. There are a few hotels within walking distance, we will probably stay there next time. oh, and the windows in the room need to be cleaned, they were completely streaked."
