Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was spacious, that added to the sense of openness. However, the bed left much to be desired; the mattress was old and lacked comfort, making restful sleep a challenge. The thin walls allowed every sound from the neighboring rooms to seep through, turning the space into a cacophony of voices and footsteps at all hours. The television, while equipped with a full cable package, produced a thin, tinny sound that detracted from any enjoyment of its programming. Additionally, the room could benefit from improved lighting; it only had two small lamps that barely illuminated half of the space, casting shadows that seemed to linger in the corners. Overall, the room had potential but fell short in several key areas.

This is an older property, but they are working on fixing it up. Our unit had newer floors (laminate) which was nice. We were not expecting anything fancy for a quick trip and it was absolutely fine. The management was appreciative when I pointed out a couple of things that needed replacing (one of the lightbulbs in the vanity needed to be replaced but it was still plenty bright. If we went up again for a short stay, I would return. It isn’t as fancy as the casinos and large hotels but for the price, well worth it.

The pictures on the website are not what it is. I had to cancel our booking and went to find another place to stay. It seems like this property is under a new owner/ management, and they should consider remodeling or paint the whole property so they can have a better condition of their rooms and facilities. If they want more people to stay with them, they have to
