Pretty nice quiet hotel. The casino is small. Nice being next to the race track. They were paving the entire hotel parking lot so had to park by the casino.

On Sundays restaurants are closed? That was a bit disappointing! The continental breakfast was subpar….stale frozen donuts and Lukewarm coffee….not one staff member to be seen at breakfast in a dingy room! The guest room we stayed in was very nice other than the AC was loud!

I read reviews that said this place was "dated", while it is an older hotel, they are making improvements to it and I was extremely happy. The horse racing and rustic theme is very nice. My room was extremely clean, spacious and comfortable. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Great place to stay.

Call hotel for actual room information.
Be careful when booking. No breakfast included as advertised on weekends even when bookimg a room.that includes it in the description. Room with 2 fulls beds absolutely terrible sleeping. We were on the 7th floor the parking lot was still.very loud. The room was clean. Checkin was good, checkout was poor. The young man seemed very put out that I questioned about the breakfast issue. He asked another staff member wjo stated this was not the first time this happened however she did nothing about it. Very disappointing overall.

Beautiful setting! Very spacious, friendly staff and clean! We didnt care for the restaurant, Mr. G's, food was tastless, only one waitress for the whole dining room, and bar tender did not know how to make mix drinks. Definitely do not recommend this restaurant. Go to Apple Bettys down the road.

Your site advertised the room at $129 for the night I wanted but the two times I touched Reserve it bumped the rate to $139. I finally gave it but was not happy about it. Expedia site included breakfast but hotel said no even though I showed where website offered it
