This is my 2nd time staying here. Both times were for work. I'm a motorcyclist and like having a first floor room with a walk-out/patio to the parking lot and being able to have my bike parked close to the room. It appears the facility has had room updates in the last couple of years or so. Everything looked fresh and worked well. No weird stains, smells, or Rubic's cube type bathroom controls.

hotel room was spacious and well designed. Staff was very nice. Some downsides include an overly complex AC system, and a porch with significant insect activity, without much evidence of cleaning.

I thought the property was beautiful. The patio doors to a terrace or small deck for a sitting area was wonderful. I would of liked it closer to the casino but the shuttle was nice. Not having a place for breakfast nearby we drove a bit for this. I would stay again it was really nice and I would recommend it to others
