Sam's Town dirty...

I rated the overall stay as a 2 because: 1. Old style TV; get a LCD! 2. Moldy shower curtain 3. AC did not work 4. The shower water pressure was pathetic, more like a weak sprinkler.

Needs new mattresses

The bed was the most uncomfortable bed I have slept on in a hotel in a long time. I would not stay there if you want a good night's sleep.

Not Expected

When I first booked this hotel, I noticed in the description that they said they had a video game console. I called the hotel to ask which one, they told me a PS. I was pretty happy with that. When my husband and I got to the hotel, there was no video game console. We called the Front Desk and they said the rooms didn't have them. I brought up the hotel reservation and they had changed the room description to where it didn't say video game console. Second problem we encountered is the lights. We had a hard time figuring out how to get all the lights to turn on and had a hard time turning off one of the lamps. We figured out the light switches but had to one plug the one lamp. The coffee sucked. You would think with all the money you spend on the hotel you could have decent coffee at least. The pool description online and in the hotel book that they have specificed a 'heated pool, but the pool was FREEZING. We were also disappointed that the shower curtain rod in our bathroom was broken so the curtain wouldn't cover up the whole shower letting the cold air in. I was disappointed with the money my husband and I spent on this hotel to have this many problems.

Unbelievable

My first time to use Orbitz and to visit Shreveport, LA. the price was GREAT and the hotel was very comfortable. I travel a lot and this was a last minute booking and Orbitz made it easy. I highly recomend Sam's Town Casino and Hotel for anyone traveling through this area of the country. Great dining as well as super quiet and comfortable rooms. Recomend you get a room on the higher floor numbers and request a view of the river.

Sams Town

My friend and I attended a benefit in the downtown area. The room was large, clean and the beds were comfortable. The floor was quiet. We got the room we requested. The downside is that the hotel smells of cigarette smoke in the common areas.
