I liked the property and the stay as a whole. However, I paid in full for the stay ahead of time via Expedia. I stayed 6 nights. I thought everything was clear and paid for until on the last day a few hours prior to checkout, I got charged a hefty amount on my card from the property. When I asked them, they said this is “destination fee” which Expedia is not charging the customers so the balance ends up being charged at the end of the stay which is unexpected. No where on Expedia does it mention anything at all about destination fee. They are working to try to incorporate this fee in the price that Expedia quotes and charges, but it’s not yet done. So that’s why we get the surprise. I don’t like surprises, so this wasn’t good for me.

Great stay! Our kids loved the mini waterpark & pool. Room was very clean & every employee we saw from maintenance to front desk greeted us and wished us a Merry Christmas. Breakfast was a step above the “free breakfast” norm & there was an actual keurig in room as well. Will stay here again!

Location is the biggest perk.
The location of this hotel is great and it is less than a 5 minute walk to the strip. The downside to this property is the overpowering scent in the lobby, it is almost intolerable if you have allergies or are sensitive to fragrance. The beds are comfortable but there is a mountain of dust behind them that could desperately needs to be vacuumed. Also it is 2024 and why smart TV's are not standard in all hotels like this is something I will never understand.
