Clean room and great atmosphere. Service could be better with coffee shop. Morning lady during my stay could have been more cheerful and not rush to get me out of there. I also asked for a panini but she claimed the items were not available but it looked like the items were available on the counter. If it was going to take some time she could have completed it after the one person behind me that wanted just a drip coffee. Not that great of service.

Overall I was not impressed with this casino. We did not stay in the hotel as it was already booked up. I read that smoking was permitted, so I expected it. The building didn't reek of smoke, but it was a bit much with everyone around me lighting up. I used 2 of the restrooms and literally half the sinks, soap dispensers and toilets were out of order. As for the gaming floor, the machines were pretty spread out so that was nice.

There was a lot of empty spaces though, and again at least a third of the machines were out of order or turned off. I was disappointed in the 'non-smoking' section. The machines were all old and primarily reel games. I am aware that the idea of a casino is to make money, but the number of constant losses made it not enjoyable as well. Overall, we will not be returning.

Went there for a weekend. The craps tables were hot and we had a great time until we played poker. The one tall guy that usually runs the room is always super friendly and knowledgeable. He always speaks with us like we are regulars and we travel up there because the room has been one of the best around recently and the atmosphere and dealers were great. we were having a good time until his coworker took over.

She knew absolutely nothing about the game, spent most of the time complaining about her coworker and having to stay late, then shut down the tables early and when someone asked her about how the players felt she told them "I don't care about the players" and "I'm the boss I'll run this room however I want" Well, if that's the attitude the casino supports we will just go somewhere else. My husband and I have never felt like we weren't wanted as customers but that lady made us feel like we were a bother. Plus, I thought that casinos make money off of players, so why would she chase off money so she can "go home"? All in all we took quite a bit of money there and wanted to just spend it and have a good time

Love this place. I've been here many times, most recently May 6-7, 2022. Wonderful hotel connected to the super fun casino! Has a dog racetrack and sports betting, table games, and lots of slots! Concerts and events are hitting the calendar again. YAY! Casino always has fun evens and promos. Just got my KY Derby tee on Saturday. Nice getaway! REALLY NICE STAFF THROUGHOUT

Overall not a horrible trip, but definitely not a top casino. Stayed 1 night and the hotel room was nice and clean which I would rate it high. The actual casino it self lacked new game options. There seemed to be a limited number of some of the top ones. It was impossible to get a beer with only one stand open. The buffet lacked options. The food it self was good but it was extremely limited and was very disappointing from a price stand point with not many choices. Betting on the dog races was a fun experience again and helped bring this rating up a bit.
