We stayed two nights and had a hot tub room, we enjoyed our stay and it was the first hotel smart enough to put the hot tub room in the basement! I enjoyed the fact that we didn't hear any neighbors and our room was a nice place to relax. I've stayed in several places on that strip and I'd book there again. My only complaint was how tiny the shower was and how intense the water was in there but the big jetted tub was great. Nice staff and convenient location.

Clean and well maintained with a modest but adequate buffet breakfast. Several good restaurants nearby. What more could a traveler ask of an overnight stop on a road trip?

The interior looks like it’s been renovated fairly recently. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and quiet. Two things that would make our stay even better: 1) a second screening curtain or something to let light into the room but block the view in/out of the parking lot and the building next door and 2) better drinking water source than the sink (tastes a little funny/metallic and even a Brita in the little fridge in the lobby would probably help).
