Plenty of room to park, hard to get a room there though. Excellent buffet and they also have other places to eat, tables and slots. They even have people that will give you a message while you're playing the tables. Also they do have racing

The room was nice, but the beds looked like they were made by children. Majority of the staff, but not all, were just unfriendly. Our sink was also clogged in the room,and had to go to an ice machine on a different floor because ours didn't work. We made the best of our trip, but will not be returning.

I like the layout and cleanliness of the casino. Keep in mind WV is one of the few states remaining that allows smoking indoors. So if you want the non-smoking section it is there, it's small but you barely get a trace of smoke as it's well ventilated. Other than that, we had a great time there for 4 hours.

Friendly staff, liked the remodel. Weren't too busy, so we were able to play the games we liked. Slots seemed tighter than usual, but we still had a good time.

I was very satisfied. Nice & clean. Was surrounded by restaurants, stores, that was convenient. The hospitality was excellent. The room was clean, & each morning the housekeeper changed linens I was well respected by all the staff. I would highly recommend

The casino is a nice one, but there are some drawbacks. 1.) Always check the casino website before going, due to its location it is prone to flooding and thereby closure. 2.) This casino is not smoke free, if smoke bothers you, you may have a difficult time here. Ohio has smoke free casinos if you want smoke free. There is a smoke free section, however you must walk through all the smokers before getting to the smoke free section, which does not nearly have the selection as the smoking section. 3.) Buffet is kind of expensive. On the positive side, games are constantly being rotated out. There is a dog track and live music often.

Nice variety of slots and table games. The video roulette and craps is great. Dog racing added depth to the casino. Will definitely return. The only complaints I have are the beds are super firm/uncomfortable with flat pillows and The Pointe restaurant could not cook meat properly (both of us had to send back), flavor was lackluster for the price. Save your$$ and do the buffet or food court.

Good I did win and they have 80% new machines. Clean as a good Vegas casino. They do have a non smoking section. And parking is easy to get close on a busy Friday. No troubles good security.
