We stayed at this hotel on our trip from New Orleans to Houston. The hotel was very conveniently located with easy access to and from the major roads. The hotel is not situated near any particular attractions, but it is located along a main road with shops and more nearby. The hotel itself is somewhat dated, but everything was functioning. Unfortunately, the fitness room did not meet expectations; for example, the treadmill was out of order. On the positive side, there was easy parking at the property and a quick check-in and check-out process.

You get what you pay for. In this case my room was not clean. Dusty everywhere and hair in bathtub. It needs a real cleaning and not a quick wipe down. Breakfast isn't any good and coffee is horrible but this place is manageable if you don't want to pay high prices in the casino area. 15 minutes to Golden nugget ride

I was unimpressed with the hotel...front staff was not very friendly...room was small and we got one roll of toilet paper and one tiny bar of soap...this hotel is not in a very good area...pool was also uninviting by the looks of it... figured all Best Westerns were nice but this one's not...won't be back
