8/10 Good
"This is a very nice, quiet hotel. The decor is very beautiful, especially in the check in area. We really liked how there was a “do not disturb” button you can push rather than a card hanging from the door handle that gets in the way. The bathroom was very spacious, with a large shower and dual shower heads. We were able to hear upstairs guests from the bathroom since it has quite a bit of an echo. There were also a couple of dead bugs in our shower, but overall the room was very clean and smelled nice. There isn’t a side door from what we could tell to enter the hotel with a room key, so you do have to walk across the parking lot to the main entrance. In my opinion the price of the room PLUS an additional amenity fee are a bit high when there aren’t really any unique amenities that other hotels don’t also offer. No pool/hot tub, and food is offered a the various restaurants for an additional cost. There are vending machines, although one was down. Sounds like there is a spa (for additional cost) although we did not see it while we were there. The cafe on the main floor near the casino was reasonably priced. Overall it was a nice stay for the night while in town for a concert nearby and we would stay again!"
