The hotel and rooms were great. But the hassle we went through in order to get some Tylenol! We were told so many different things to do but no one to help. We had to travel one hour to get some. I had developed a bad sinus infection with a high fever. So we had to leave early the next morning to be able to get seen with my home town physician.

Staff was very pleasant and helpful. The rooms were not spotless, Shower door strip on wall was loose and water kept running onto floor outside shower. Walls and doors need to be wiped more often they were sticky looked as if something was spilled . Toilets need attention dirty and sticky door and floor. Hope rooms don't start looking rundown

Everything was wonderful here! The room was huge, quiet, comfy bed/pillows, and clean. The staff at the registration desk, the casino club desk and the diamond grill were top notch. The food and craft cocktails were so good! The casino wasn’t smoky and they had tvs everywhere to watch the football game. The grounds were beautiful. Didn’t use the outdoor pool/hottub but they looked inviting. Would definitely stay here again without a doubt!!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
We haven’t stayed at this particular overnight since the other casino came to town and I guess now I remember why. When we checked in while it was bright by the front entrance light was lacking around the vicinity of the hotel itself ( parking lot was adequately lit) and staff themselves seem not to happy to be there. ( just my personal observation). While my husband is a gambler I am not and I wanted to sleep and get ready for the next day. The bed was hard and the bathroom smelled like sewer with the shower having some weird pressure issue making those weird groaning noises like it was haunted.. so off to bed… when my husband finally rolled in around 5 am to sleep we get a loud a@@ COP KNOCK at our door around 6:25 demanding my husband give them $100 they overpaid him earlier. Which to me is VERY unprofessional and could be done without a 300 lb “bodyguard “ in the background for effect ? Anywho..lesson learned as I feel we got robbed and the overall atmosphere was not good. Would definitely not recommend and will DEFINITELY never stay here again. Will continue to frequent the other place as they have more to offer and THEIR customer service is beyond reproach
