Property was new, clean, had good restaurant choices and was conveniently located. The area over all was a dump. Poor, trashy, lots of homeless and drug use in the open. Not dangerous feeling but still sad.

DO NOT!! stay at this hotel if you have children with you. It is not child friendly. The restaurants are in the casino so they cant eat in any of them. The taxi driver accidentally dropped us off at the casino entrance instead of the hotel and there is no other option but to walk all around the building and across the street and down a road to get into the hotel. We were forced to walk this at 12:30am. In the morning my son couldn't get breakfast because again all restaurants are in the casino. Ridiculous!! We had to walk all the way around again to leave. We were told they could escort us through but that then changed to NO we had to walk all around the world again. I think if you allow kids to stay inyour facilities then you should make it so they have access to things like food. Unacceptable!!!

I'm asthmatic, and the smoke was horrific in the hotel lobby, all day, every day. I couldn't go into the casino because you had to go through the smoking section to get to the nonsmoking Then the music was so loud on Friday night, didn't stop until 1 AM, which did not help that one of us had a plane to catch and had the alarm set for 3:15 AM NO SLEEP!

Quiet and very comfortable soft queen bed in a spacious room. Only 4 out of 5 stars because the hotel did not have electric charging. Odd for a resort like the Emerald.

Very nice hotel, but the closer you are to the 11th floor, fhe music is loud on fridays and Saturdays from the club music. Very hard to relax and sleep between 8pm - 1am.
