Nice hotel for overnight business traveler

Clean nice rooms overlooking a canal. The hotel was very separated from the casino which was good since I was traveling on business and needed a quiet nights sleep. The steak house in the casino had very good food. Grab a Starbucks in the morning from the lobby and was on my way. Would stay again

We have stayed at the Landing numerous times and have enjoyed our stays. This visit was not quite as good. They are now "dog friendly" and having a room with a dog crying and barking was not a good situation. We will definitely go to this property again but need to be away from the dog friendly floor...Mark H
