Everything was good accept the shower. It was a faucet we never saw before so took some time to figure it out. Then we saw the instructions on the mirror.

Beware of funky smells
We have stayed before. Spent 2 nights. Overall good experience. One of our rooms had a funky smell. Ended up finding a half eaten corn dog under the bed.

Several of the employees went out of their way to greet us throughout the stay. Property is clean and convenient to the Casino.
I did have an issue with leaving some personal property in the room that was valuable after we checked out. Upon calling a few hours later, the management helped secure this for me until I could pick up the following day. Good to know that kindness and honesty are still alive and we are grateful to the staff.
