"The room was big. It had a huge bathtub and a separate shower. The beds were comfortable too. They charge you for amenities and that is the gym, dining, and casino. They should pay you. The casino is very expensive to eat at and the food was just OK. If they had microwaves in the room, I'd say bring your own food but they don't. The staff in the hotel, dining/ casino are not very friendly."
