Not all rooms have refrigerator so I had to be moved to a bigger room which cost more. No breakfast, just coffee and tea. My card key wasn’t working so 2 days I had to get it renewed. Finally my last day the door didn’t open at all. Otherwise the view is fabulous!

The hotel has some age on it but they have upgraded the exterior and interior to a place where this is a solid value. Right on the river the rooms have excellent views from their balconies. The Room 151 was perfect. Great location to the casino. Pete’s Pancake House best place for breakfast.

Neglected room is understatement. As soon as you walk in the door there is a broken bar pipe of sort , one small one large. Blood splatters on ceiling in 2 areas near one another. Then more blood on bottom of bathroom door plus door is broken off hinges. Also large spider by open closet front door, along with some mouse droppings in the toilet. We'll at least the mouse tried to keep clean. I'm disabled so called front desk explained to clerk what we witnesses and he stated he would be down. Just nearing 30 min still had not come down. We had begun loading our suv back up knowing we would not stay in that room. Finally 40 min have gone by we decide to go up see the clerk. Upon entering office with said broken pipes I brought in for clerk to see along with pics date and time stamped. He was on personal cell phone speaking with someone for a minute saying things like I'll be home late I'll call you back yada yada.. He said i assume you want a refund. I said yes please. Never offers any other accommodations. I did ask can I please have a receipt document saying what I had shown you about the room issues and management number. He said could not give any receipt and very reluctantly, gave me a sticky note with name number front desk.1hr out of the way able to get another room. So 100 more also run by same manager. Cerk had businesses cards and stated here is management card I'll also leave a message to call you. Myself and Expedia have emailed called no response, more than a week!

Avoid this location. Cockroach in the bedside drawer. Neighbor's AC continually cycled on and off while creating so much noise that it was impossible to sleep. Staff knocked and then opened their door but it was chained from the inside. Staff said there was nothing more they could do. Spoke with front desk in the morning and was told that manager would call later that day. Manager never followed up. Staff was friendly but obviously management does not care about customer experience. This hotel has gone downhill quickly since new management took over.
