Was honestly shocked that it was cleaner than most 5 stars I’ve stayed at. Not a single aspect of this trip was less than expected, it in fact surpassed all expectations. That tub in our room fit a 6’4 man who really needed that soak. Like most that weekend we stayed during Spartan race week and its proximity to the racecourse was amazing. The food, the room, THE SERVICE?! Amazing, absolutely will be back.

Low rise commode
It was perfect. Only complaint I have is the toilets are way to low. I suffer from knee arthritis and being their toilets are extremely low my arthritis knees were in excruciating pain after 3 days.

Our stay was comfortable. Room was large, clean and comfortable. There are several restaurants on site in which to eat or get a snack. The casino has a large non-smoking area in addition to the smoking area. Machines are well laid out and there are many choices of games and amounts required to play them. This venue is quiet and comfortable compared to some other casino/hotels we visited. Only negative is they charge a resort fee but the pool was closed and there was no entertainment the day we were there.
