"The place is one step above a flophouse, shoddy carpeting in hallway, the bathroom fixtures in room were in disrepair and when I tried to turn on the heater it made a couple popping sounds with a whiff of electrical fire smoke so turned it off. The bed was OK. It was relatively cheap to stay for a single guy traveler and it lived down to that reputation. Would NOT recommend to a woman or couple."

Top Nebraska State Fair Grounds Hotel Reviews

Grand Island Casino Resort

8/10 Good

"The rooms were kind of humid and sticky even with adjusting the air. There isn't enough of an exhaust fan in the bathrooms when showering. On the queen beds 4 pillows would be better than 3 so that each person had equal pillows. An extra blanket or pillow in the cupboard would be nice. Overall the stay was great"

10/10 Excellent
