It was fine. They need to pay attention to details (no soap in the bathroom, no cups for coffee). We tried to eat at the CBQ restaurant but the guy working did not seem happy to have customers. And he did not know how to make drinks. (Ice in a mimosa???). The room was comfortable and had a wonderful view.

Our room was great, as we had one on the newer side. Our family stayed on the older side and did not have the same experience. The breakfast was awful, the food was just not good. However, the place was clean and our room had a beautiful view and a nice balcony,

The front desk staff were great. Both ladies we dealt with were personable and helpful. For the price, the room, and basically the whole hotel, could use some basic updates, painting, and deep cleaning. It pales in comparison to the elaborately appointed casino areas.
