Yes it is a casino hotel, not that we've ever been to the casino, in
fact we found a side entrance and parking lot that lets us completely
avoid that whole area of the hotel. The room is $69 for the first two
nights, free for the third night. It's a much nicer room, at a lower
cost, than the nearby small chain motels, but there are no freebies like
WiFi, or continental breakfast. Normally I'm fine with something like La
Quinta, if it's a reasonably good franchise, but all those types of
motels in this area are either run down and in bad parts of town, or
relatively new and nearly twice as expensive.

Last year we stayed in a cottage in the hostel in Banff, and even at the
hostel there was free WiFi.
