Hotel was good, but don't expect to eat dinner here without a reservation and breakfast at 7AM took over and hour and a half. Hotel bathroom was not clean when we checked in, the housekeeper forgot to get the sink, bathroom counter and mirror. However, housekeeping came right away and cleaned it up. Beds were nice and the gambling was fun. The pool was also great for the kids. This is the better of the two casino in the area by far.

Definitely a top casino/hotel in a smaller town. Tons of food options. The casino is very nice and just steps from the hotel. The parking is easy and definitely safe when they have a parking garage. The staff are very friendly and easy to work with.
