The one thing I really disliked was the sliding barn door to the bathroom. I almost chopped my finger off closing it because there was no way to keep it closed. There was no latch. It would just slowly open back up. Not good when you are sharing the room with your grandkids.

Poor customer service

The people at the front desk could not get their story straight. One said I had a particular room reserved, but then I got to the hotel and was told that they were "extra busy", so they gave my room to someone else who was scheduled to arrive a few days into my stay.The person who didn't want to honor my reservation kept asking for the name of the agent with whom I spoke before. I asked for a blanket and it took 45 minutes to get it after I called a second time. They collected a deposit when I checked in and said they'd give me a receipt when I checked out. but when I checked out, they refused to give me anything.

The hotel was much nicer/cleaner than when we stayed a few years ago. The Casino has a dedicated smoking area blocked off from the main Casino floor which is a nice change from years ago when you couldn't go to the Casino without smelling like an ashtray. The hotel is also no smoking / no cannabis which is a must in Humboldt County. Overall, I was very impressed with the overall cleanliness of both the hotel and casino. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here for future trips to the area.

Overall great stay. The stay were very kind and attentive. The room was spacious and clean. If you take the elevator from the parking lot to your room you do not see and would not know the hotel is connected with the casino. The room was completely smoke free (no lingering smoke from casino). The pool was a lot smaller than expected. Overall met our expectations!

If you are traveling with a pet, you will pay an extra cost for a first floor accomodation and get a down scaled dirty room. When I pulled my covers back I found used paper towels, napkins, and paper trash in my bed, left by the housekeeper. I put it in a ziplock bag and turned it into the front desk. I received no compensation for the inconvenience, and barely an apology. There are nicer accommodations near by with better ammenities for a lesser price.
