We had a very comfortable stay. The room we stayed in was quiet and it met our expectations. The bed was cozy and comfortable. The bathroom was excellent having both a shower and tub. The elevators were quick. The staff was friendly and helpful. The Fitness Center was open 24 hours and it was clean with lots of gym equipment options. The Casino had several eateries to choose from which was convenient. The Casino itself was fine, too. Everything is conveniently located and within walking distance to The Venue since we attended a concert. All in all, an excellent experience. We will likely be returning!
