The entire hotel and our room were very clean. Our room was quiet - the hotel rooms are away from the casino. Free valet service for guests is offered. There is a food court where I was able to purchase a basic breakfast. We paid $100 for one weeknight which we thought was a great deal.

Excellent Service!

I stayed here for 3 nights while on business in Murphy. The valet staff here are outstanding! Toby went above and beyond normal duty when he helped me locate my lost cell phone. I was stressed out because I had a 12-hour Drive ahead of me and his calm and friendly demeanor made my day much nicer. Everyone I met here from housekeeping, security, registration were all absolutely wonderful. I will stay here again just for the employees!

I was not told at check-in that no housekeeping would be provided unless you request it I was surprised being out all day to return to my room not cleaned. No new clean towels trash cans full and beds not made. I am very disappointed and will not stay here again. Otherwise i was very happy with my room and hotel staff. I have never had to ask for daily housekeeping in any hotel I've stayed at. Prior notice would have been better. Also check-in is at 4pm. I arrived 15 minutes before 4pm and was told i could check in my luggage with a bell person or i could pay a $25,00 early check-in fee to check in that 15 minutes earlier. Not what i expected in a beautiful facility.
