The room was very simple, not all lamps worked in the room so it was rather dark. I know mattresses are a personal preference but both my husband and I woke with sore backs. The worst was the noise. We were in room 127, which must be right under the stairs because we could hear all the kids running up and down all evening. The worst, however, was the sounds heard when someone upstairs flushed the toilet or ran the shower/bath, you could would have thought it was coming through the ceiling. Unfortunately, there was no coffee in the room for me to enjoy while waiting for my husband to wake up. The hair dryer was good. We will not be staying at this hotel again.

Staff were good. Room had no usable lighting. Bedside lamps were useless, table lamp was not bright and floor lamp had no bulb at all. They should have included free flashlights. The walk to the casino was not enclosed. You needed a coat and boots to get there.
