  • It had rooms available.
  • Only had smoking rooms. I am allergic to cigarette smoke.

“I would not stay here again unless it was absolutely necessary. The rooms were clean but worn, Wi-Fi did not work in the room, the room was very dark and reeked of smoke.”

  • Excellent location.
  • Difficult to access.

“The room was as expected given the price, the common area was a bit better than you might expect and the cleaning service was very good. The parking lot is a bit difficult to access, I had to drive past the hotel and make a U-turn since the median does not allow a left turn into the parking lot. The location is excellent, practically across the street from Adventure land and very close to a great steakhouse.”

  • The location was excellent and the pool looked pretty nice.
  • The bed was too bouncy. Whenever you moved in bed you bounced - kept me awake all night.

“For the most part, it was a very nice hotel, but we were glad we stayed only one night. We would probably stay again. The bathroom was far too small, the room needed a good cleaning (could see dust near the floor boards and around the furniture). The room needed painting and the furniture could use a little updating too. The bed bounced whenever you moved and the box spring had a bad stain on the side.”

  • Warm pool, clean rooms, price, helpful staff, good breakfast.
  • Broken remote, could have used extended breakfast hours.

“I was very pleased with this hotel. Although the room was not huge, it was clean and quiet. The pool was warm, and the Jacuzzi was nice-sized. The TV remote was broken, but the staff was helpful and fixed it quickly. The breakfast was good, too.”

  • Great location!
  • The card reader on the door broke during our stay.

“Great location if interested in the Race Track/Casino. Shuttle was available but didn't run frequently enough for our needs; we ended up walking back to the hotel from the casino. Rooms were pretty clean; not the level of cleanliness you expect from a big chain but better than the experiences I've had at smaller chain hotels.”

“This hotel was very convenient to adventure land and many restaurants. The lobby and hotel in general was very nicely designed. Great breakfast. Did notice though some hairs on the bed flat sheet which was rather concerning.”

  • It is in a great location for easy access to Adventure land & Prairie Meadows. Very clean. Smaller rooms but that did not matter.
  • The lights could have been brighter in the bathroom sink.

“I have stayed at this hotel prior to this & would do so again. It was nice to have a continental breakfast. The room was clean & the staff was friendly at the front desk. Pool area looked clean as well. Nice area to stay in, very safe.”
