My husband and I decided to stay at this hotel and gamble at the casino. The casino had a lot to offer—many machines, many tables, and a variety of restaurants. However, the hotel was nothing short of a nightmare. We paid $100 to stay one night. Our room was very spacious and clean, but that did not make up for the shortcomings the room had to offer. The bed was supposed to be a queen—I would be surprised if it was anything more than a double. The bed was extremely uncomfortable—springs were poking in our backs. The television was only 19", which was a bit small for the gorgeous armoire it was placed in. The bathroom only had a shower on which the door did not fit properly. The shower was large, but there was no light in the shower, so it was a bit dark. The toilet was in a separate room, but it had no vent—just a light. There was a double sin, which was nice. The room also featured a microwave and refrigerator—great amenities. The insulation in the room was horrific—we were a few doors down from the elevator, but I heard it ding each time it opened. The people in the room next to us had a child that screamed most of the night—we heard it all, including the hotel employee who knocked on their door to advise them they were getting complaints about the noise. The insulation in the room was so poor that I woke up the next morning to hear the person in the next room call Bubba on the phone and tell him to wake up. It amazes me that the insulation is so poor in this hotel that you can hear everything in the next room.
