Nice room views Bed mattress quite firm and rather uncomfortable -- different mattress or foam topper would be improvement. Bathroom shower glass had unsightly hard water buildup on glass Only one towel hanger in bathroom -- should have at least two Is casino that allows smoking indoors in casino area, thus cigarette smoke/smell does pervade entire facility.

The casino was nice but the hotel was more or less just a place to lay your head between gambling bouts. Poor lighting, no microwaves, poor layout of rooms, lack of activities or things for children to do, poor TV selection (no CBS, HBO, etc.), bathroom door was a sliding door that had no way to secure it.
