Would not recommend

This experience was terrible. They "upgraded" our double room due to overbooking to a fantasy type suite. It was tacky and things didn't work right. Half lights didn't work, the jacuzzi tub was difficult to figure out, the shower was barely functioning, the breakfast was poor quality, there was no elevator for a two story hotel. When we called the front desk for help, we were treated poorly and did not get the help we needed. The hotel had many screens broken off or missing from the windows. The tissue box had three tissues in it! There were no USB outlets. No lamps at all, only overhead lights; half of which had switches that didn't work. Due to the dismissive attitude from front desk staff, we decided not ask for the missing items (tissue). The only bright spot was the lady that checked us in was very pleasant and friendly.

There was some type of odor in the hotel room which you cannot smell after you were in the room for a time. But if you left the room and came back you could smell it again

The hotel is near by restaurants, gas stations, and a few minutes from the casino. For a 2 star hotel it really wasn't too bad. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Lots broken, not kid friendly

The smoke detector started chirping around 9:30pm after my toddler was asleep. The front desk attendant came and watched my husband remove it and then took it away. This is a safety hazard and illegal. But also, they are ten year smoke detectors! Put them on a schedule and switch out before they chirp at guests at night! Additionally, the AC didn’t work in one of our rooms and the toilet ran all night. The floodlights to light the parking lot made it seem like day in the room all hours. The breakfast was maybe the worst I’ve ever been offered at a hotel and questionable on the safety and freshness of those items (the waffle maker left black specks all over my kids waffle, the gravy for biscuits and gravy looked days old). We used the pool but the paint is peeling all over it the floor of it so I was glad my toddlers couldn’t touch the bottom. The water was clean though and we still enjoyed it. The (regular?) clientele seemed to linger in hallways most hours or yell obscenities in their rooms at each other. The area seemed unsafe. Not kid friendly: liquor store attached to hotel, casino machine in lobby, folks lingering in hallways.
