Very clean well kept property. Suggest adding grab bars by shower bath for us older people to hang onto as we step over the side to get in and out for a shower. Suggest more variety at breakfast such as fruit options.

Booked a suite. Very spacious and clean. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. The breakfast staff worked their tails off to keep the food replenished and the area clean. Easy access to the casino next door if that’s your thing. Would definitely stay here again!

It has everything that one would expect from a hotel. You name it and you will get it. Friendly and serviceable staff, cleanliness, comfort, good AC, quality breakfast, quietness, a pool and hot tub with just enough products to do its work and not scare you out with the smell of chemicals.
