I checked it about 2am and there was a line. But it moved very quickly and the clerk was efficient. Booked one of the remodeled rooms and was very pleased. It was comfortable and fully appointed. I only stayed 1 night so I had no experience with housekeeping. I walked the grounds a bit and some area of the hotel shows it's age. I stayed at MGM the next night and regretted not staying with circus for the whole weekend. So my advice is to spend the extra 4 bucks and upgrade.
