Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was simply fantastic. The location was superb, right across the street from Diamond Joe casino and very close to a convenience store. The rooms were cozy with a fridge and a jacuzzi tub, and the customer service was top-notch. However, the dining options, while including cheese omelettes beside the usual items, were not too extensive. The facilities were great, with various services offered, making it a great value for money.
This hotel is in a prime location, directly across the street from the Diamond Joe casino and near a variety of dining options. The rooms are spacious and offer a fridge and jacuzzi tub, ensuring a comfortable stay. The service is exceptional with various convenient amenities available. However, the dining experience could be improved with more diverse options, and the facilities may lack some modern touches.
My stay at this hotel was just perfect. The location is superb, right across the street from Diamond Joe casino and close to a convenience store. The rooms are lovely with a fridge and a jacuzzi tub, but the dining options were a bit limited. The service was outstanding, meeting all my needs throughout my stay.
