We ended up getting a good rate going through a third party to book, so the room fee was nice, compared to the normal fee. The room was nice, clean and what I was hoping for from a casino. (For context, I stayed at a casino last year, that I won't name, and the shower was tiny, which was odd for a well-known casino) The floor staff at the casino was awesome and made our friend's birthday celebration a memorable one. My only complains about the stay are: - Limited power outlets near the beds (all of us require the use of a CPAP and didn't have enough outlets to use them) - The front desk staff. We had to wait for a bit at check-in and another 10+ minutes at check out for anyone to show up at the desk. Needless to say that by the time the lone staff member did show up, there were already multiple people besides myself waiting to be helped.

Hopefully you don't have neighbors who are loud

The hotel front desk gentleman was very nice and helpful. Upon entering our room it was pretty clean but there were a few areas that needed some extra attention. The trim and corners of the room need some love because it is an older more ornate style trim and it was coated in dust. If it would have been a smooth flat trim I am sure they wouldn't have this issue. There was also a few areas in the grout on the shower wall that appeared to have some buildup. The beds were clean and very comfortable though which for me was most important. The privacy in these rooms is not good at all. After coming up from the casino around 1:30am I could hear our neighbors loud and clear and almost wondered if the door in between our rooms was not secure. I checked to make sure it was locked and indeed it was but I could hear clearly their adult activities that were taking place. Thank goodness we didn't have anyone else with us on this trip or else I would of had to get my kids earplugs or take them out of the room. I understand adults do extra things in the privacy of their room but I don't want to hear it take place in my room. I don't know if it is because their is so much tile when you enter the front of the room and the sound was bouncing off of it but there needs to be better sound barriers between these rooms. Not to say I wouldn't stay again but it was very awkward and I am sure once we were up the next morning they then realized how much you can hear in the other room.

Check-in was smooth. Good conversation with a very friendly receptionist. Room was nice. Pillows were a little firm for my taste, but still okay. The room next to us had a family of at least four and we could hear every. single. thing. We woke up two hours before our alarm to the kids screaming and squealing, and the mom telling them to wipe their butts, put pants on, etc. Check-out was fairly quick, but detatched, lackluster. We weren't asked how our stay was, just given our receipt and sent away.

This was a short stay before going to our final destination. The hotel was clean and staff very friendly. The best part of the stay was our dinner at the Brew Pub. Our waitress was amazing. I can’t remember her name though. Sorry about that. All in all a good stay even though we didn’t win anything gambling.

There was no hot water in the bathroom sink. Would not turn on at all. Staff said maintenance would fix it in the morning - which would be after we were already gone. I'm sure they were fully aware that it wasn't working when they gave us the room.

Made my reservations through Expedia and was kinda punished for it Expedia promised Valet parking and microwaves in the rooms.. I was informed that Expedia lies. My Mother must have a special diet, thus the need for the microwave. So to make her stay comfortable I had to buy one for the room! and no I dont need one at home so it is just gonna sit on a shelf and collect dust!! Thank You!
