Overall it was a good experience. Our big issue was there being no refrigerator or microwave in the room. Bar and grill in building had friendly staff and good food. Bed was comfortable. Continental breakfast was a big fail.

Another great stay at Wild Rose. Can't beat the value. Miss the hot buffet breakfast and would be willing to pay for breakfast if they still had that option.

We checked in and went to our room. The toilet wouldn't stop running. The gal at the front desk said that she could put us in a different room. I told her that wasn't necessary. Just send someone up to fix it. Oh, there's no one on staff to do that today. She gave us another room. It was a smoking room. It smelled like a dirty ashtray. We stayed anyway. I will say, the beds and pillows were comfortable.

I have stayed at The Wild Rose many times and it has always been a great place to stay. However I do really miss the restaurant upstairs and the hot breakfast. For the special winter rates you can't beat the price.

A Nice Place
It was a nice place to stay on our way to another destination. We didn't do anything in the small casino, but it seemed nice. The morning breakfast was good as well.

Very clean hotel. Unfortunately, the non-smoking rooms smelt like cigarettes.

The biggest negative was the smoke. For a non smoker it is hard to tolerate. The room has no fridge & microwave. The pillows were just mangled & horrible.
Pros would be the excellent service by the gentleman waiter at the sports bar/ restaurant. The food was very good too.

Small town casino with average amenities. There is a very small non-smoking section at the casino but does not really matter because it is still heavily smoky. The whole casino smells of cigarettes. The staff was very friendly, rooms were clean but not updated. Overall a great stay, just stinky.
