Didn’t spend much time in the room, we were pleasantly surprised to find a cafe in the casino that was open pretty late. We are in town every year for Arenacross and this was the first time we stayed instead of driving back, and it was actually a pretty nice change!

Not what I expected for a Casino + Hotel. We were in the non-smoking wing and there was zero smoke! The rooms were newly upgraded, spacious, and super clean. It came with breakfast that was huge! Spectacular view of the river from the room and restaurant. Our child has a Gluten allergy and the restaurant has many options. Five stars from the whole family.
