Room was very nice, though it had a very unusual bathroom. There was a curved “window” in the shower open to the bedroom. The curtain for the shower window wasn’t in the shower, it opened and closed in the bedroom.
Taken from the bathroom.

Clean,safe, friendly staff and environment. It offers a variety of food choices from simple meals, good sit down meals, buffet and an elegant dinning experience- Ruthie’s (excellent steaks). I highly recommend Ruthie’s. It offers a good sports bar to watch your favorite teams/sports. The golf course is great with friendly staff to accommodate and make your golf experience pleasant. For those that enjoy gambling this resorts has it as well. Plenty of betting games to choice from. Great entertainment- enjoying the live music with drinks and friends. My stay at this resort casino was a great staying experience. Great ambiance.
