When booking a room more than 3 hours earlier and you show up to more than a 75 minute wait just to be able to check in there IS a massive issue. The front desk personnel gave zero fks about any of that though. Desk agents RUDE, hotel average, casino TIGHTER than a gorilla glued object.

It’s was pretty good. Shower was set to jets only, the floor wasn’t vacuumed, and the alarm was set to 7:01am without me knowing. Other than that I loved the jets in my whirlpool room, and I got a voucher for $20 of food and it worked on my drinks loved that. Pillows are nice too.
