Excellent Service!

I stayed here for 3 nights while on business in Murphy. The valet staff here are outstanding! Toby went above and beyond normal duty when he helped me locate my lost cell phone. I was stressed out because I had a 12-hour Drive ahead of me and his calm and friendly demeanor made my day much nicer. Everyone I met here from housekeeping, security, registration were all absolutely wonderful. I will stay here again just for the employees!

I was not told at check-in that no housekeeping would be provided unless you request it I was surprised being out all day to return to my room not cleaned. No new clean towels trash cans full and beds not made. I am very disappointed and will not stay here again. Otherwise i was very happy with my room and hotel staff. I have never had to ask for daily housekeeping in any hotel I've stayed at. Prior notice would have been better. Also check-in is at 4pm. I arrived 15 minutes before 4pm and was told i could check in my luggage with a bell person or i could pay a $25,00 early check-in fee to check in that 15 minutes earlier. Not what i expected in a beautiful facility.

It was a very nice hotel and the staff was wonderful. The only complaints are the shower was very dirty and full of mold and mildew. I did not feel comfortable being barefoot in it. And the pillows were very small. Quality of sleep is very important when staying away from home. People that are well rested are in better moods and more prone to spend more money.

The casino is a good place to stay in this area. I hate resort fees, but even when taken into account the rate was competitive. Rooms where standard as any typical hotel. The indoor pool was nice. We appreciated the multiple food options. Never had an issue with parking, but it was a long walk from the garage to the elevators in the hotel

Sunday get away!

Food was ok, just need a middle of the road place which is under construction. Brew Brothers I believe is the name. Bed soft, but not too soft!! TV wouldn’t allow me to stream & front desk said it wasn’t programmed for that yet! Which stinks!

I found that the room that we stayed in wasn't really clean at all the elevators were filthy, looked like the carpet hasn't been vacuumed all year long. The bed didn't even have a fitted sheet on it it was only a top sheet, and the price that we paid did not reflect the quality that we should have gotten.

It was a little confusing to get around but after walking a mile to get to our room it was nice, clean and quiet. Bed was comfy but sheets are not soft. Bad food options and unexpected resort fee that I didn’t appreciate after the over priced alcohol drinks. $40 for 2 drinks
