Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall atmosphere...calm and peaceful. Property/room was clean very comfortable. What I didn't like .. firstly, Air in hallway was a bit musty, need to place air refreshers in hallway as the hallway is narrow and it is carpeted. Secondly, hotel needs to improve on breakfast, can't be just eggs and baked beans. Although other items were there, pancakes, dry cereal etc, instead of just baked beans, maybe some hash browns, sauted potatoes with onions, also turkey could be sauteed with onions, green peppers etc. breakfast was just okay.

No room to park. The guy in the suit last night was intimidating and rude. Following us through the parking lot and coming to our car being extremely condescending and acting like he was going to catch us not supposed to be there. He then acted like I was getting an attitude and followed us all the way into the building to make sure we actually had a reservation. Then I woke up this morning after sleeping in the bed and I had bug bites all over my knees and hands. I would like a refund.

Great view of the water front. Walking distance to the casino. We were surprised when we arrived and there wasn’t enough parking for every guest. We did have to park in a parking garage off the property, which although wasn’t to far of a distance away, was still inconvenient, and because we have a large truck, the antenna was scarping the roof of the parking garage well parking. Aside from that our stay was great.

We stayed here for a girls night in August. Unfortunatly the pool is on the small side and it's right off the reception so not private to get to. Ordered pizza delivered because the restaurants around the area were too expensive. View was lovely and the breakfast the next morning was delicious. 8.5/10

The location is fantastic! Our room was super clean however other guests on the floor were super noisy. Someone had a massive dog that was barking in the middle of the night. That would be the only thing to complain about.

Clean and Modern Room

We liked it, had a very clean room with modern decor which I loved. The bathtub is not large, but the shower had hot water and strong water pressure. The beds were comfortable and we slept great. The view was great from the 11th floor, but we paid for riverview and got a partially blocked view. The pool was the perfect temperature, the breakfast was great with a lot of options and great service. I felt a little uncomfortable that the check-in staff were all male, I personally find female energy to be more welcoming. More kids channels would have been helpful, vending machines and ice machines on our floor would have been helpful, too.
