Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The toilet was for someone 4 ft tall. Check in awful. Arrived 3:15 and was told no rooms released and check in at 4. Ten minutes later saw a couple successfully check in. When I asked about it I was told the other party was a certain level member. No one asked if I wanted to pursue that level, nor did I find being lied to about no rooms available a proper treatment.

My stay at Ameristar was just….neutral. The service was excellent (shoutout to Jeanne @ Front Desk and Sam @ 1853) as everyone was super accommodating and nice. But the hotel itself had issues. The WiFi was terribly slow, and my cell service in the room was nonexistent so that was concerning. Additionally the TV in my room would cut in and out seemingly every 30 seconds or so. It only did it on a handful of channels but it was not great. Also allowing smoking in casinos should be outlawed as it was gross and you could not escape the smell. However my room was nice, and clean, and the whirlpool tub was wonderful and the food at 1853 was excellent. ++ for service + for room cleanliness - - - for technology (WiFi & TV service

The jacuzzi in room 317 DOES NOT WORK. Do jot let them put you in this room. We had maintanence in the room twice and it still didn't work. Would run a few minutes and then stop. Staff refused to switch us rooms even though we paid the additional for a jacuzzi room. Very disappointed.
