Affordable but not fancy.
Hotel lobby area was clean and neat. Could definitely tell from hallway and stairwell that it was an older building. Handrails were missing and carpet torn on stairs. Advertised with casino but the main one was closed and the small one they lead us to appeared kind of sketchy.

Every section of the hotel smelled differently, not in a good way. Beds were small and uncomfortable. Hard to believe in today’s world hotels still don’t have queen size beds. It was ok there clean enough inside but outside looking really dated. I would stay there but my wife would not.

It us a run down hotel with good intentions. Staff has decent people. Overall, it reminds me of the Amtrak railway system, mainly because I am sure the facilities were state-of-the-art back in the 1970s. Just like Amtrak, nobody has tried to update them ever since. The owners are milking the cow until it dries out without feeding it properly. It was an overpriced stay for what I received. Rooms smelled muggy, carpets are old. There are stains in the carpets. The whirlpool is hot, dirty, and the jets don't work. The breakfast was low quality, and included leftover pizza from the casino/pub/bar that runs in the premises. Good location for a movie, great character for a scary movie, though.

Started off very poor with the front desk. the gentleman had poor English and gave me wrong information of location and insisted I just pay a 201 dollar fee for one night. Wi-Fi was very poor and went I went to book the room it was the wrong location and the price was ok but when I went to confirm, the date changed to the next night. So I called Epedia meany times add was hung up on. And once again nobody can speak English much. Then the gentleman came out and apologized about the wrong address. I called Expedia customer service and not much they can do since its within 24 hours... called my bank and now waiting next what to do... I should not be charged the 80.?? for this issue
