Description of room:
Very nice. Bathroom is divided into two pieces, with the toilet having it's own separate room. Coffee maker is present. Bed is comfortable. Is it as nice as Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas? Dunno. Never stayed there ... they charge too much.
Sleep Conditions:
Got stuck next to the vending machines, so I heard ice clanking some. I didn't get to sleep in because I had to wake up early for a long drive the next day.
Description of wi-fi:
None. They have high speed internet for a charge, but no wireless.
Description of fitness room:
Open 24 hours! And no additional charge! Not much equipment, though. I tried to use the treadmill, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to run. They do have a track in the back ... looks to be about a quarter mile or so. That might be a better option than the fitness center.
Description of pool:
Very nice indoor pool. Did not have the opportunity to use it, but it is big enough for laps and looks clean and neat.
Safety:
Driving in, I was a little worried but that faded once on property. There's really not much of a problem here at all.
Price:
On a Sunday night, I was quoted a rate of $129. However, using my player's card got me a discount on that (not quite sure how that works--I pretty much only play poker so I didn't think they'd discount me anything and was pleasantly surprised to find out otherwise).
Additional Information and Links:
No alcohol is served from 3 a.m. to 7 a.m. Monday through Saturday and midnight to 7 a.m. on Sunday. It's a long walk from the hotel to the casino (a river boat) but that walk is completely inside the complex.
Restaurants on property: Portico Steakhouse, Legends, Villa Buffet, Cleo's Coffee & More, and Aroma Cafe & Bar.
