It was okay. No elevator so must carry luggage upstairs if staying on second floor. Has a restaurant onsite; reasonable price and large portions. One hour from Great Basin National Park.

Nice room, smoky lobby
Check in and out was in a very smoky lobby since it was attached to the casino, but the room itself was nice, clean and modern. We avoided the restaurant just off the casino, but reviews seemed to be okay..
