The desk staff was exceptionally kind and courteous! Our room was very clean! We had a late check out, would have preferred a little longer than the half hour given, but understand the staff shortage. I didn't appreciate the Housekeeping staff member literally waiting outside of our door with her arms crossed when we walked out though!

Nice Getaway
Went to do some Christmas shopping then relax at the casino. Ordered a pizza from Boogaloo and had a great time. Have stayed here couple times and are always pleased.

It took a long time to get the air conditioning to actual cool the room. At one point in the middle of the night woke up to it being close to 90.
