“Nice enough”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stay and play when we get cheap rooms. The rooms are nice enough. showers are large enough for two with a bench for whatever purpose you want to put them to;). Beds are OK. some hallway noise some times but normally not bad in the middle floors. Ask for rooms where they put the fewest kids. The hot tub is one of the best features except it's worse than most for kids. It is attached to the pool so the kids treat it like a heated pool extension. Most parents take care of this but a few think the same way I guess. I don't dislike kids but c'mon. their YOUR kids YOU put up with the noise.
All in all if you get a good price it's a nice stay and some of the kids are fun to be around. As for the casino sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

Room Tip: Typically the middle to lower rooms are your best bet for quiet.

I was happy with my stay. Easy check in/out, fun atmosphere, good food, and I was treated well by the staff. I would definitely be going again.

“Very Nice and Comfortable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

Everything about this was nice. The room was large, clean and very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and I had no problems with anything except the casino. It doesn't live up to the hotel standards and is very small. I wouldn't recommend here if you are planning a gambling trip as the casino isn't very enticing. The hotel room itself was very nice though. The restaurants were nice and the food was good.

“DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

My fiancee and I stayed in the king size whirlpool suite on 11/5/11 and couldn't have been more dissapointed. It took us over 45 minutes and speaking with 5 people simply to make the reservation! We only live 30 minutes away so it wouldn't have been easier to just drive down to book the room. When we checked in, the guy at the front desk told my fiancee he was "stupid" for getting married. Our room looked decent at first glance, but the bed was lumpy and the pillows were so thin we had to use the decoration pillows to sleep. The bed also came without any blankets, only three thin sheets and a huge flat sheet thrown over the mattress which came off in the middle of the night. The bathroom looked amazing at first but when I looked at the whirlpool tub (which I was dying to get into) I noticed the soap and dirt scum all over it and long black hairs all over the bottom. I have blonde hair so not sure how they got there.

That being said, the buffet is amazing. The food is very good qaulity food and you get a lot for the price. Even Otis and Henry's upstairs is top notch. There isn't a huge selection on the menu but what they do offer is pretty good.

If you want to go eat there and hit the casino floor, great! Have a good time, but drive about five minutes down the road to the hotels on La Porte Road and San Marnan Drive. Don't waste your money on the rooms at the casino.
