The hotel and casino appear new. It is a beautiful facility and very clean. We had an excellent prime rib dinner at the Rain Rock restaurant inside the casino. Our waitress was excellent. Would definitely come back here. Comfy beds and spacious room.

Good hotel. There was a mildew smell from the sink drain in the bathroom, which was not pleasant. Otherwise, great experience! We would have appreciated cooked oatmeal in the breakfast area.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Room was comfortable and clean, but I was a little concerned about location. Area was run down and industrial, I did notice some area revival happening so possible that this will change. Breakfast was the usual motel buffet nothing great. They did have a parking security fence and camera so was safe.
