CCarrHeatherRiver Spirit exceeded our expectations right from the beginning. I didn't realize that a shuttle from the airport to resort needed to be booked 24 hours in advance. I called when we landed and they sent someone to get us.
Every staff member we encountered was polite, friendly, and helpful. Check in was a breeze. Our room was large. We had a view of the river, which was very high from recent storms.
The bed was comfy. The toiletry products provided were very nice. Water, coffee, and tea was free in the room. Self-service drink stations with soft drinks, iced tea, coffee, lemonade were all over the casinos, and free.
The pool area was clean and large. There were plenty of chairs. There was a swim up bar and regular bar with food. Towels were provided.
We explored the fitness center. It had everything needed for a good workout.
The prices for food and drinks were very reasonable, unlike other casinos we've been to. For example, domestic beer was $4.50 & imports were $5. A cheeseburger was $14. They had breakfast sandwiches for $4 as well.
Our reason for going was a concert at the casino. That venue was very nice as well. The seats were comfy and no bad views. The sound was great.
I played some blackjack and was happy to find $10 tables. It's a rarity now. I play for fun, so don't want to risk $25 per hand. The dealers were funny and professional.
We walked from the resort to the aquarium. The Riverwalk path was beautiful and took us there. We rented Lime scooters to return.
We will definitely be returning.
ゲゲストThe location was perfect for my needs, right of of Shields and I-35 on the Service Road. If you need to go NB to I-240, taking Shields is a great alternative to getting back on I-35, because the traffic in that particular area tends to bottleneck. To go SB, just take the Service Road, cross 12th Street at the intersection, and get right on the interstate at the ramp. Manager was very friendly at check- in, and went out of his way to make sure I had an upstairs room, per my request. He even made sure that my room was at the end of the hallway by the stairs, so i could easily take my dog directly outside to do her business. All the staff that i encountered were very friendly and courteous. The room was large and very nice and clean, bed was comfortable with lots of pillows. Bathroom was very clean- no stains or disrepair. I really liked the walk- in shower. I was even impressed that there little bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion and small bars of soap; the last couple of hotels I have stayed at said it had become too expensive to provide those. The only complaint, if I had to come up with one, was that the exhaust fan in the bathroom didn't work. All in all my dog and I had a great stay. This will be my go-to motel when I need to come to the City again.
ゲゲストHoliday Inn Express downtown Tulsa was an excellent location to stay for attending a concert at the BOK. About a 15 minute walk and they also had a small shuttle. We chose not to ride the shuttle back to the hotel because the line was too long. Our rooms were updated and very clean with ample towels and comfortable beds. The breakfast in the morning was fantastic with a wide selection of food including scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, sweet rolls, cereals, fruit, yoghurt, waffles and more. There was ample seating and everything was clean. The pool was very large and warm but no pool towels. I would definitely stay here again. They charge $19 for parking in the garage behind the hotel with easy access.
