Definitely a top casino/hotel in a smaller town. Tons of food options. The casino is very nice and just steps from the hotel. The parking is easy and definitely safe when they have a parking garage. The staff are very friendly and easy to work with.

As soon as you walk in you are over powered with the smell of cigarettes. I had to wait an extra 30 minutes to get a room when my check in was at 4. Has this booked well over a month. The room was great. .
