Employees were very friendly. Pool was down and no hot tub at the hotel next door they said we could use. That’s the only down fall of the trip.

I love this property. This is the 2nd time I've stayed here. I love the pool and large hot tub, behind tinted windows, over looking the Missouri River, it doesn't get any better! The food options are great! Also, having a Riverboat casino attached is a bonus!
