We stayed two nights and had a hot tub room, we enjoyed our stay and it was the first hotel smart enough to put the hot tub room in the basement! I enjoyed the fact that we didn't hear any neighbors and our room was a nice place to relax. I've stayed in several places on that strip and I'd book there again. My only complaint was how tiny the shower was and how intense the water was in there but the big jetted tub was great. Nice staff and convenient location.

All the staff that we interacted with were very nice, the place needs a good scrub down, fresh coat of paint, breakfast was ok, my husband has some mobility issues so the small bathroom was a little difficult for him, parking spaces were tight, it was nice to have an elevator since we were on the second floor
