Daniel

Disliked: Staff & service
The facility was nice as far as casinos go, however there was no housekeeping at all.. In my many years of traveling to multiple hotels, never have i ever spent a weekend where i had 0 house keeping. Nothing was replenished daily.. no towels, wash cloths, water NOTHING.. I stayed for 4 days and 3 nights! I had to call for new towels and they say they didn’t have any more but eventually brought me some in a plastic bag! Very poor service and i will not be coming back!
