“Rooms here appear freshly updated, though some visitors have noted lingering paint odors. The staff earns consistent praise for kindness and professionalism. Its location provides an easy jump to the casinos, but light and noise might be factors. Keep in mind the resort fee, as it doesn't necessarily reflect available amenities.”
