Several of the employees went out of their way to greet us throughout the stay. Property is clean and convenient to the Casino. I did have an issue with leaving some personal property in the room that was valuable after we checked out. Upon calling a few hours later, the management helped secure this for me until I could pick up the following day. Good to know that kindness and honesty are still alive and we are grateful to the staff.

Small tv, and dated mattress as well as needed a good dusting all around are the only reasons this didn’t get a 5 star review. Staff were very friendly, within walking distance to the casino and the breakfast was always stocked.
