Clean, spacious rooms with great views.
Rooms at the hotel are noted for their cleanliness and space, a noteworthy feature which extends through to the en-suite bathrooms. In addition to clean living spaces and good housekeeping, the views of either the river or golf course simply can't be beaten.
positive:
Easy access to local attractions.
If casinos and live restaurant entertainment aren't hitting the spot, there are plenty of local attractions worth exploring such as Harvey's Recreation Complex, Metro Crossing and Lake Manawa, all within easy reach of the hotel.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Bar and entertainment not always available.
The resort bar and nightclub offer great onsite entertainment opportunities but are not available every night of the week. The Stir Live and Loud nightclub is only open form Wednesday to Saturday and the resort bar closes around 10pm on weeknights.
negative:
Thin walls offer little privacy.
The resort room walls are thin and consequently offer very little in the way of privacy as guests are able to hear the activities in adjoining rooms quite clearly. This could be a bigger problem for families with small children or light sleepers.
negative:
Some shower water pressure issues.
Guests often report that en-suite bathroom showers offer very low water pressure, making showering quite difficult, particularly during peak hotel times.
