They also charge you for drinks at the tables and bar slots which is sad. This area is where the table games were which significantly reduced my gambling time. Not sure if they turned back the clocks to the 80’s but I personally cant stand a smoking casino. The bottom floor has a smoke free slot area but the upstairs they allow smoking. The casino isn’t within the same building, as you have to walk thru a walkway to get to it. They didn’t service the room my entire stay and I was also missing the privacy tag for my door. Bed was comfortable and shower was very nice.

I had a luxury suite but I noticed the smaller details were missing: i had no hangars in my room, no safe, but a colleague had one in his, and the tub had nice Kohler products, but the sinks had cheaper American Standard faucets. Apparently the rooms have been updated and I thought were very nice. We stayed here for three nights to attend a conference.
