It wouldn't take much time and would certainly give it a better appearance. The basic room was okay, nothing extraordinary, but more than adequate. staff was excellent to deal with and... More

Our stay at this hotel was excellent. The hotel is right on the boardwalk with plenty to see and do. The rooms are large and were very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. If you want a cheap hotel in a great spot, this is for you. We enjoyed staying at this hotel very much.

When you drive up to the valet parking ($10.00 once off charge) the hotel is quite unassuming but the staff are helpful, polite and very friendly. Once inside this hotel surprises, with beautiful décor, friendly and efficient reception staff, I received an upgrade because I asked and my wife is a smoker and they have only a couple of floors...

I saw some very poor reviews on this property so I decided to write this one. First of all, this hotel is very cheap compared to all other casino hotels in the area. We paid 28 dollar per night, and it wasn't even Priceline or Hotwire, it was published right there on expedia!!! So I would say for 28 dollars... More
