Uncomfortable bed

We only stayed 1 night and the bed was hard as a rock and the springs were in our back the entire night. We didn’t sleep at all and our backs felt bad the next day.

Everyone was so friendly, helpful and kind. They offer shuttle service to the casino on Friday and Saturday which is helpful to get around and have fun. Breakfast is included with 24 hour coffee. Will recommend to others and do plan on going back.
