The large room is awesome. The coffee maker and fridge are a welcome site. Huge tv is wonderful to watch. In room safe is handy, along with hair dryer,iron and board. The beds are comfortable. Room air works great. Hall ways are nice and wide. Breakfast had all we could ask for. Eggs sausage toast muffins bagels cold cereal yogurt hard boiled eggs. Sure I am missing something so you will have to go see for your self. Different games for gambling. Food is served in the bar area. Very good. Have been there more than once and will be there again. In the middle of family we visit. Easy to find right off I-35. Shopping close by along with many places to eat if desired.

One of the luggage carts had ben stolen down to one. Only down side. As a older person I swear you bring 1/2 the house when you come so the carts are a heaven sent.

Clean room, super friendly staff. Cool to see the horses on the track from our room window. Was at a wedding nearby so didn’t spend much time on-site.

Coffee not available in later morning when checking out; A/C unit kicked in during the night like a freight train, but quieted to a tolerable hum and cooled off nicely.

How clean and presentable the hotel was, how friendly and accommodating the staff was, there’s plenty to do: in-door swimming pool, casino, bar/restaurant, and my personal favorite race track horses. The view to the track was great; watching the race track horses train in the morning was awesome and we absolutely enjoyed our stay (wish we could’ve booked a second night). Breakfast was fantastic! Eggs, sausages, fruit and juice - love! Would’ve loved some pancakes or waffles as well but overall, no complaints whatsoever. Would book again and recommend for sure!

Honestly, no complaints. We loved and enjoyed our stay!

Friendly staff very accommodating. Location to where we were going to be involved was perfect. Easy to find and close to anything you might need extra of. Plenty of room. Breakfast is hot and tastful. Appropriate variety of items, hot and cold. All the essentials milk, coffee, juice. Toast , rolls, yogurt, cereal. Right amount of choices. Beds very comfortable, along with in room coffee and tea. Huge bathrooms. We have stayed there before and will again.

Can't say I disliked anything.

Staff was friendly. I really liked the location of my room over the track. Great shower!

I felt like the parking for hotel guests should be more convenient for hotel guests. Because it was race night, I had to carry my bags quite a distance.

The entire stay was exceptional. Our stay in that area was unplanned so I relied on other reviews. The courteous staff, the room, the entire facility was top notch. The price was better than a few other hotels we have stayed at lately also.

Room and bathroom were very large. Lots of space. Breakfasts were fine. Lots of choices. We aren't gamblers but watching the horse races on Sunday night was fun.

Our view over the parking lot wasn't very attractive. It would have been nice if the little market in the reception area had wine and beer for sale.

Huge room,great a.c. Big bathroom. Huge T.V. Breakfast hot. Room view facing track. Staff assistance for newbe on betting. Food we got prior to the race was exceptional. The good out did the bad. Little things to be worked on. Get towatch them work out the horses in am. Interesting to watch. Race day watch outside or inside.

Never received coffee after check in. After asking maid in hall when they got to room if we could get towels still had to call desk later that night. Maybe they need bath mat on floor in shower or maybe cleaning product made floor very slippery or shampoo residential.
