I had a mixed stay at Paragon Casino Resort. My room in the atrium tower was nicer with a great view of the alligator enclosures, but there were issues with the cleanliness and noise from karaoke late at night. The dining options were decent, but I was disappointed with some aspects of service, especially room service wait times.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has its perks with a great location, I'll have to admit the rooms left a lot to be desired.
