Great hotel even for non players
Rooms were very clean and comfortable. No noise from gaming area, parking lot, or adjacent rooms. We really appreciated the fact that the room elevator was room key secured, and accessible without going into the gaming area.

Great for the price
Great room for the price, only two issues, number one the entrance for the hotel is not clearly marked I spent 5 minutes circulating the parking lot to find out you use the casino entrance. Number two the shower was only lukewarm.
