The worst hotel I've ever seen in my entire life.

No advise this hotel Very bad hotel, very very bad manager and personal, They changed my room to a lower quality room due to the crowding, and no one was responsive, and when I protested, they called the police to tell me not to protest. I would never recommend this hotel, you will regret it, and the rooms were not private and the sound was quite loud.

I would give this hotel a 5 star if it weren't for the extremely thin walls You can hear everything in other rooms Heard someone snoring and woke up to other people's alarms! The staff was great, great location, very clean. If you sleep like a log or have excellent earplugs go for it

Great Short Stay

Stayed for.two nights and it was a very nice hotel! This was located closer to the Casino but still within walking distance to the main town. It had all the basic amenities you may need such as mini fridge, microwave, TV, and small dresser. Just a heads up, there's no elevator just stairs since its a small and compact hotel. Walls are bit thin so you may hear some noise/footsteps but if you're out exploring most of the day, you should be ok! Staff here were friendly and welcoming from beginning to end :)

The hotel has one restaurant. Open 9-2pm only. Couldn’t even get some coffee to our room (and they only had just drip) before they opened.
