Pleasant surprise! First timer - everything was great. Exceptional friendly service from everyone. Room was clean and very comfortable. Did the lunch and brunch buffets. Reasonable price, standard buffet fare. Ribs on lunch buffet were excellent quality and taste. Grabbed pizza, burger and fries at Plum. Okay budget, great pizza, good prices. Ordered a specialty drink at Cup and Cone - Star Spangled Shake. Worth every penny and the extra prep time! The pool area is large, clean, and has a wonderful hot tub. Excellent weekend all around!

The staff is knowledgeable but turnover is high, staff is underpaid and there is a lot of burn out. The slots are always updated and fun, the tables are great, usually with 6 to 8 tables on slow nights and up to 16 tables plus a separate poker room 3 nights a week. Be careful with the hotel, which can get overbooked and poorly cleaned due to staffing cuts. The 1991 kitchen serves good food and plums is the local 24/7 go to for great sandwiches and pizza. The B3 burger bar has a wonderful selection both bottled and on tap but be careful of the fried food because the kitchen is understaffed. Great concerts and venues are held in the convention center but this can also lead to over-booking in the hotel. Best words of advice, great place to go and eat and play but find a room or rental cabin up the shore in Garrison

Put some good new games in the non smoking section. Terrible. And the room needs to be completely sealed so smoke can't get in there! This big remodel didn't do a thing! A person can barely breath in the casino. Put in some vents. BETTER YET, GO TOTALLY SMOKE FREE!

The casino was well maintained, and everything was easy to find. The restrooms were clean and fully functioning, although there were only three stalls in the restroom we used. Everything seemed to be functioning well. We even came out ahead! It was a nice short stop.

Much improved over last visit. Now with a bar The casino has a much larger feel. Food was good, drink and service was way better and I ran into (mostly) friendly staff. Check-in can definitely be improved. Yes, they have full alcohol service bars now.

We stayed in the hotel for one night and had a clean room that only cost 10 dollars after special discounts. I've never had a problem finding a card table. A little smokey but that's expected for casinos. They told us about a breakfast that didn't exist which was a bummer. Overall it was a good stay.

Great atmosphere, live band and new restaurants with amazing food! The rooms are newly remodeled, very comfortable and nice! The gambling is really enjoyable when playing cards. The dealers are friendly and knowledgeable. Great perks. We always have a wonderful time here. They also started serving alcohol! Always a plus! Fair prices!

Note that this is the first big casino I have been to, so it might be the case that most casinos are like this. But nevertheless, almost the entire casino floor is slot machines which even for slot machines are boring. Some don't even have effects or anything. It is the most boring and quickest way to drain your money possible. The only interesting thing they have is several tables of blackjack and poker. And even some of the poker (3 card poker) doesn't depend on anything besides chance either. I guess maybe people don't go to casinos to do anything that would count as a game. In the end, really boring and depressing place.

Aside from the stale smoke smell that permeates all casinos the rooms were clean the food was good and the games were plenty. Not as much to do with a two year old but she had a good time nevertheless. Will definitely be back as this is one of the best bargains for hotels on the lake.
