Everyone that worked there that we came in contact with was amazing. Even the $1500 payout was enjoyable... Haha. The casino was good to us ...

The hotel is connected to the casino. There are doors that would close it off but they were always open, filling the halls with smoke. The rooms at first didn't smell like smoke, but after a couple of days it started making me sick and I had to find a new hotel. The hotel itself, the room, and the staff were nice. I expected some smoke, but not like it was. If it was non smoking I would definitely stay, but if you are at all sensitive to smoke, I'd suggest a different hotel.

The hotel is fine. Basic, but clean and comportable - although I would expect more for the price of the room. We were not as happy with the casino. No luck gambling, but it is really smokey smelling. Lots of smokers and not a good ventilation system.

Rooms are nice. Casino is nice. It is very clean. Continental breakfast was the worst I have ever seen. They used to have a great breakfast. The parking lot area is marred by buckled, uneven pavement. I actually tripped and fell hurting my knee elbow and both wrists. I reported it immediately to hotel and was offered medical attention which I did not need. However, I never was contacted by management to follow up or offer any type of comp. I think this was poor behavior

The stay was ok, wasn't thrilled with the fact that the room I had, even with it being a smoking room, it was still dusty and needed some kind of air ventilation to get rid of the smoke.

The room was like sleeping in the remnants of a bon fire. The smoky smell was overwhelming and made our 2 day stay a 1 day stay. We chose to leave a day early as we could not sleep another night in these conditions.

As a smoker, I am very pleased that you offer Smoking rooms. Thank you!!!! I just feel the room rate is not compatible with the area. A bit steep.

It was just ok. Our room was smaller than most. I know that because our friends had a room that they were comped and it was much bigger than the one we paid for. The mattresses kept moving off the platform so I was constantly moving it back in place.

Watch out. They hit you with a $50 “incidental” charge whether you use incidental services or not, so the price you book is NOT the price you pay. (How this is legal, I don’t know.) And the “free continental breakfast” was lame. There are better hotel options in the area.

nice rooms. Bad breakfast that is served in the reception, the restaurant is closed, where they have only two two-top tables! Cereal, bad packaged bagels, yogurt. No fruit. VERY basic and no place to eat. PLUS it gets put out at 7:00. Not for early risers
