Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The bathroom vanity was small. You could hardly put make up or your toothbrush supplies on there… Had to set stuff on the back of the toilet if you wanted more space…The shower creaked like there was nothing below the tub shell. My tile was cracked like they had to dig under it. Outdated inside rooms. Get what you pay for. Said they had a continental breakfast… I'm not sure that I having a waffle maker constitutes as a continental breakfast. Disappointing .

Good for people that party but not family oriented
I was very disappointed in this hotel. The bar and was extremely loud. You could hear people talking all night long on both sides of my room through the bathrooms. There were smells in the hallway. Phone network was terrible in Thompson. I would never stay here again, and I would not recommend going here unless you drink and party all night long

Not impressed
Lobby was not well marked and I have to walk to find it. and it went down from there. The staff was OK, but check-in was slow and the outside door to the room hallway would not close. The room I got smelled musty. The AC was very noisy when the compressor clicked in. When I check out, No body was at the counter so I went to the breakfast. No Fruit, no Cereal, Nothing hot except a waffle. When I left someone was at the desk and he asked me is the AC worked. I told him it did but was very noisy. It was very coinvent for where i needed to go but, If I go back, I will look else where and drive a little.

This is called a resort, but actually an average and dated hotel, golf course and casino in the middle of cornfields. The people were nice, and our room was clean but it really needs some updating to the exterior and property grounds. The breakfast had only fruit as healthy choices. No eggs or other hot food other than waffles. No water either.

About 1130p music started blaring loud that we couldn’t get to sleep before 1p I was on my way home for my mom’s funeral so didn’t appreciate the music after 1130p. Spoke yo desk clerk upon checking out and was assured I’d get a call or email from manager Chrissy and never heard a word from anyone!
