I usually stay here once a year for a quick family trip. Do not expect bell and whistles. It is not updated and most rooms have old appliances. However, it depends on what you are looking for in your stay. It is fairly quiet. For us it is convenient for our particular trip activities.

FROZEN! DIRTY!
I saw dried food on the wall. The curtains had holes in them. The heat was not even on and it was only in one room (we had a studio suite). It was so cold until hours later that our feet were cramping.

Bhumi checked us in and was so kind. The room was huge, clean, and inviting. It was like a little apartment! I'll definitely book there next time I go up to the casinos!

Pretty gross
The only saving grace was that the bed was very comfortable. The room and rest of the hotel are in shambles. Disgusting out dated appliances that were all broken in some way. and a laughable excuse of a whirlpool tub. It’s a shame because the property has a lot of potential with the suite being huge with a balcony but so gross that you don’t really want to touch anything. I’m glad it was only a night.

Great Inn Nice Area
My stay at Gold Star Inn & Suite was very comfortable. The room was spacious and quiet with a jacuzzi and cable TV. Their is a shopping center in the area and a lot of nearby resturants. Very nice Inn.
