Standard issue hotel room. No frills, but clean, everything worked. Breakfast service was well maintained, loved the coffee machine being 24/7 available. However, if you want to sleep at a certain time. Be sure to look up the show schedule for Cheer Up Charlie’s and Stubbs BBQ. The latter can blast music until 2am some nights, and no ear plugs or white noise machine will drown out the Lady Gaga remixes that play that late. When there’s no shows, it was fine.

Staff was wonderful! Location was great if you are going for night life. If you aren’t going for nightlife maybe a different location would be better because you do hear the club music pretty loud through the windows in your hotel room. But I did love staying here!
