Very nice and clean rooms and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was very good. I would recommend this place to stay. The only downside was the pools were closed during our stay. We will be returning here again.

Large, spacious hotel built around a quality-modern Nebraska convention center. Very cool, especially for the cheap cost! It was understaffed and very empty when I needed to book a stay in town, but I recommend this place to all people and families from my experience.

After taking 25 minutes to check in, i finally got a room. Tub was out of order, so they switched me rooms. 2nd room the wster was briwn, and after 4 times draining and refilling it was still brown. They said thet could get me another room, but by this time i was furious. I asked to speak with the general manager with no reply. Next morning i asked to speak to the manager again no reply.

This hotel is really tired. Staff are inconsistent and we repeatedly had to ask for more towels. One day after cleaning our room only had one hand towel. Trash was not emptied in public areas and ended up smelling a bit. Just didnt seem like employees had pride in the hotel. Our initial room smelled and had an ozone machine left in it. Second room the air conditioning didnt work. Third room was fine but had dirty shower curtain. Very tired. Good price but not worth it.
