This was our second stay at the property. It is a half way point for our trips out west and we will continue to stay there in the future. The property is clean, parking lot well lit, and it is close to I-80. It is near the casino and Adventureland for those that are interested but don’t want to stay on property. There are restaurants nearby but I wouldn’t say that they are walkable. Breakfast is decent, nothing extraordinary, but well stocked and options for different diets.
