"The room was clean and well-appointed. The employees were friendly and helpful, and the courtesy van driver was prompt and friendly. The pool water was a bit chilly, but not unbearable. Good service at both restaurants, but the prices were high. Get directions to the parking ramp, as the entrance was difficult to find.2015-04-29"
"Not worth the price, though the view was nice and the bathroom was spacious. We weren't told that we'd have to call to have the room serviced. I called for clean cups and towels and they were brought up, but the dirty cups and towels weren't removed. The room and hallway carpeting needed vacuuming. No hotel information in the room.

"We asked for room repairs and cleaning when we left on the shuttle, but nothing was done. The shuttled failed to pick us up after the Wild game.

Look for a different hotel.2018-01-17"

Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
