Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination
While we had a great time, the room was excessively dusty. There was dust all over the walls-above where you would typically see. Sink in the bathroom stayed clogged up. Toilet Seat could have used a replacement and wobbled. Yes wobbled. Other than that the room seemed clean.
