Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had clean and spacious rooms but unfortunately, the mildew smell was overpowering. The service was friendly and welcoming, making me feel comfortable right from the start. The location was convenient for my needs, close to my work office, and the dining experience was decent despite limited options. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
The hotel was situated perfectly for my needs, being right across from the fairgrounds and offering a welcoming atmosphere upon arrival. The rooms could benefit from more seating and were a bit pricey, but the initial impression of cleanliness and comfort was great. I did experience some noise from neighboring guests at times.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its proximity to the fairgrounds and casino, although the surprise in pricing was a slight inconvenience. The service was exceptional, especially with valuable tips for navigating the area.
