Pool was closed for maintenance, room service was ordered and had to be picked up could not be delivered, food was just ok-pretty bland. Room was clean but would occasionally get a sewer smell. Overall disappointed from previous stays

Pool was cold, hot tub wasn’t hot, no water pressure in the shower, but surprisingly scalding hot water. Overall it was clean and comfortable. Very average hotel. Probably would not stay again.

Worst stay in US so far!

Hotel smelt like an ashtray, everywhere... from the lobby to the lifts, bedrooms to the gym and pool.... unfreindly and rude staff especially reception. I wont be going back there, plenty of other hotels in the area with better facilities, decor and cleanliness

Really bad hotel and experience!

Booked 3 nights stay, something authentic given the history and casino... thats where it ended hence one star! The hotel is dated and smells like an ashtray throughout, furniture and decor is old, worn and stained with nothing exciting to add! Staff were extremly rude, especially the reception staff given after the first night they wanted me to move rooms having overbooked room type! They even had security move lock us out of our room then ecort to another room! I couldnt get a refund, otherwise would have moved hotels for the remaining nights. Casino was poor, other than a few card tables three floors of slot machines, which all smelt like rotten cigarettes and tar! Gym and pool areas dirty and unkept, even the pools and spa are filled with salt, unhygenic and rotten! Everything else was extra you had to pay for, no complementary drinks or breakfast.... I dont recommend this hotel at all, much better hotels around it. Wont ever go back there, save the agro and book somewhere else!
