Hotel staff’s disrespectful, but interestingly seems to treat white customers with more respect. If you’re non-white, I don’t recommend.
Also, at night at the front desk, I am told club members have complimentary breakfast, so I changing my schedule accordingly. In the morning, I am told there isn’t one.
Thanks. Won’t be using again :)

Real nice rooms, friendly service and plenty of places to eat. A restaurant located in house and even a touch of Vegas for those with a vice for gambling

I planned a bachelorette party at an event that was being held in the convention center…
We stayed there for two days and had the best time ever!!!
I can’t say enough great things about the employees. They were all amazingly nice, helpful and all looked like they enjoyed their jobs.
We never left the hotel to eat…. The food was top notch!
Huge thank you to the Kellers for making this party great
