The beds were comfortable, and there were no noise issues during our stay. I also appreciated the no-pet and no-smoking policy — definitely a plus. However, the bathroom and flooring could use an upgrade. The water pressure was very poor, the toilet didn’t drain properly, and the space was quite small and cramped. Additionally, the bathroom faucet was difficult to use — it required turning it back and forth several times just to get the cold water running.

Location is great. This was my 2nd stay. Room was old and bathroom was not as clean as it should have been. They closed the diner that was there and it is taking a long time for the restaurant to open.It was disappointing to not be able.to have breakfast before we left. I know they are remodeling the property and I will stay there again.

Staff was helpful. Had to change rooms. Its an old building. Our 1st room had no hot water after the 2nd evening there. Had to pack up and head to the 2nd room. Both rooms were very clean and roomy. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The hotel is located in an area that makes it easy to get around in all directions. Overall, its a great place to stay.

Fun and Friendly Little Place

Staff were very friendly. Room was clean with a pretty view over the city and mountain range. Casino was fun and absolutely enjoyed the set by Chris Costa. Very talented musician and singer. He did an awesome job interacting with crowd.

DO NOT STAY HERE

The hotel is a rundown dump. Half the rooms aren't renovated, but noention of that anywhere till you show up. I tried cancelling my reservation and was told they can't, so it's just a $100 lesson to stick with the big name hotels. Avoid this place at all costs. Maybe after their renovation it would be worth spending 50-60 a night, but definitely not more than that, and certainly not until the renovation is done.
