I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nicely appointed and even had a balcony overlooking the alligator enclosures, which was a unique touch. The location was convenient, especially being close to the casino, but the smoke from the nearby smoking section often lingered. Service was attentive, but my overall dining experience left a bit to be desired due to the repetitive menu. Overall, a decent stay, but there are areas for improvement.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, which is in a small area right next to a smoking section. While the service was mostly friendly, there were a few instances of rudeness during my check-in. On the upside, the rooms were comfortable; however, they had a lingering smell of smoke from nearby areas. Overall, it's a convenient place, but some improvements could enhance the experience.

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. The service was friendly, but I faced a few hiccups at check-in. Dining had its highs and lows, and the facilities were decent, especially the pool area. Overall, I'm not sure it's worth the price given the state of the rooms.

5.6/10

The hotel had a great location right next to the casino, which was definitely intriguing and made for a comfortable stay. However, the cleanliness of the rooms left a lot to be desired, with some areas feeling a bit gross and noisy at night. While the service staff were friendly and tried to help, they seemed a bit overwhelmed and uninformed about activities. Overall, it's a decent spot, but there are some areas that could use improvement.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were not very clean, with some unfortunate spots on the toilet seat and makeup stains on the sheets and pillows. One room was particularly noisy until about 2:00 am, which made it hard to sleep. They did have a separate shower and a jacuzzi tub, which was a nice touch, though.
