We booked this hotel based on the offered breakfast, there was nothing but coffee and a protein bar as a breakfast option. There was no fruit, no danishes, no beagles, and no waffles. We have been to many hotels where this is the minimum breakfast offered in this case we feel like it was bad advertising.

This place needs total makeover. The stair to the upper level smells garbage urine. Front desk staffs need to be replaced with someone who has hospitality training, courteous and friendly. None of them qualified. If I was NOT looking for a NOT so expensive place to stay for the night, I will NOT stay here at all. The only reason I stayed here because I was NOT willing to pay for resort fee that big hotels charged, That's the only reason.

The first room had no hot water in the bath rub. I was provided a 2nd room. For two nights the queen bed was a total of $169.00 but i was charged $259.00. This is $90.00 dollars extra. Can you let me what the $90.00. Was this a security deposit that should have been credited back. The room was left clean

Do not stay here! It's billed as a Howard Johnson's but is really a residential motel with staff from the casinos living there. The noise level is incredible, and we left in the middle of the night.

Worst place to stay ever

Shady hotel with homeless and druggies around all hours of the next. Door didnt fit the frame so light and sound came in all night. It was so sketchy that I had to sleep with my gun in my hand to feel safe.
