I stayed here with family for a concert held at the AVA Amphitheatre. The hotel was lovely. The room and bathroom were spotless, the bed was comfy and the towels were fluffy. We had a view overlooking the Casino entrance. Usually that's not a great view but it was offset by the beautiful mountain backdrop and tall palm trees on the property. Even though the hotel was full of life, I wasn't disturbed by any noises from neighboring rooms nor the hallway. I would reconmend this place and I would stay here again.

I've been here a couple times now and have loved all of my visits. Really friendly and welcoming staff when I first checked in as well as throughout the hotel. The pool is amazing and there are so many lounge chairs and a couple chair beds. My hotel rooms have always been perfectly clean and in amazing condition. Can't wait to go back!

Always a blast to visit. Beautiful grounds, friendly staff and a great venue for concerts. Fantastic place for the fourth of July fireworks. However, the event/parking lot control was insane. I understand that the are many visitors and a vast amount of cars entering/ leaving the casino, but folks who can properly control the flow of traffic should make things less stressful.

I love this hotel. However, this past weekend I took my son to celebrate his birthday and had THE WORSE experience EVER! I was put in room 414 and from the minute we walked in the door the most disgusting smell of muggy dirty feet hit us. We arrived in the evening to have my kids start swimming when the sun came down. Because of the horrible smell I decided to have them out there the rest of our evening came up slept got up got our things and left.
I didn't want to deal with the complaining process because when I arrived the hotel I booked a week early was not in the system. The front desk lady did take the time to assist me with this issue and resolved it. But, again this is what we ended up with.
I just get believe the housekeeping lady wouldn't complain or do something about this if this is a hotel that is suppose to be at the top. That smell is literally penetrated in the carpet. Very upset that we couldn't enjoy food and cake in the room.

Located in southwest Tucson, this casino is a mediocre resort. The location is not ideal because most of the attractions of this area are east of Tucson so it adds 20 minutes to anything interesting. The rooms are nice but the placement of wall outlets are not ideal. My room included 2 beds and a mini fridge. The pool area is nice but is more of a family attraction crowded with kids. The casino has mostly slots and poker, with like 2 roulette machines and craps machines. The service is really nice, but the security is very uptight with instances of myself being carded multiple times while sitting on the same machine.

My first trip here was for the Iron Chief Tucson Meet the Chiefs event. It was held near the pool and in a great area for the event. Had lots of room and nice grass to walk on. The casino is well maintained and you can see the pride with it which used to keep it running. I was very impress with the warm and welcoming atmosphere. Will be going back to attend more events.

Upon entering the gaming lobby, I was immediately hit with the nasty smell of cigarettes smoke. Not very pleasant. Not being a smoker it was a very strong smell. I totally understand why smoking is allowed, but it was such a turnoff. I went to the casino expecting to play roulette, but there was no roulette tables, not really sure why, but what can you do. I did however play the dollar slots. Had a good times and met some nice people. I was coughing like crazy the next morning, most likely due to the cigarette smoke. I have to give them a very low score, mostly because they put profits over health. I understand that smokers will spend more if allowed to smoke while playing. But the casino's should really consider what long term health benefits are at risk by allowing this habit to continue. If you are going to continue this habit then at least ensure there is proper ventilation.

Love leaving town, and heading west to this little oasis out in the middle of nowhere! Just make sure you bring plenty of money!! 🤑 And they have some great food spots as well, in case you get hungry in the middle of your poker game. Also, the hotel connected is beautiful!!

My family and I ate at the festa buffet. We went for steak. In celebration of me graduating college. At first we order the steak well done and it was still pink and red. The food overall was delicious. Love going there.

Went on a Wednesday night, so it was not very crowded. Good lighting in the parking lot, nice parking lot for that matter. Ate at the Fiesta Buffet and was very impressed. $20, it was clean and pretty classy, as buffets go. Wide selection of foods, which were fresh and very tasty (including really good sushi, believe it or not!) The dealers were professional and quite friendly, made me feel comfortable sitting at a card table, and the slots paid out a decent amount, from what I saw. Overall, very favorable experience, and we'll definitely go back.
