This property is right across from the Harrahs Casino in Cherokee and ideal for a weekend casino getaway. Bathroom was not the cleanest but with shower shoes it was tolerable. Hallway smelt like weed half the time but that was because of the people staying there and not the hotel. Thin walls too. If you can sleep with a tv on to drown out noise from the next room you are good to go! Comfortable bed for sure!

The bath tub was peeling on the inside and the television could have been bigger instead of a 32 inch it should have been a 42 inch.

We stayed in this hotel during the Thanksgiving holiday so there were no restaurants nearby open at night. However, on the other side of the street, there is the Casino resort. It is very close and easy to walk there. The staff at the front desk were very nice and friendly. Even though the hotel feels a little bit old compared with the others that we lived in during the entire trip, I still think it is good enough. The only comment is the television is not a smart TV. Our kid didn't like the channels with advertisements at all. If there is a TV that could connect with Netflix, that would be ideal.
