We stayed overnight in a local hotel because the casino does not have a hotel & took a cab that was at the casino back to the hotel (it was approx 4 miles) cost us $20 so you wonder why most of us use Uber now.

The room itself was not bad but they only had one kind of beer available which did not appeal to me, so every time I wanted a drink I had to leave the venue to go to a different bar. As for the casino, we attended a concert.
