First Gold Gaming Resort

Service took a while. I paid extra for grilled mushrooms and peppers, but I'm pretty sure the mushrooms were canned, and the peppers were barely warmed. The asparagus was good for asparagus, and the side salad was a typical one. The $12.95 dinner special came with rib eye, asparagus, and a side salad. The steak was edible, but not very good. As they say, you get what you pay for.

We had a great couple of nights, the four of us. The machines were fun and the food was perfect. We came to gamble and have dinner, and the service was top notch. That T-Bone is some of the best ever. Thanks to Levi and the ladies working for making dinner amazing!

The check-out experience was my main frustration. I know 11 AM is the official time, and I take responsibility for leaving at 11:24 AM, but the repeated calls and aggressive knocking on the door made it needlessly stressful. Once I came out, a staff member kept reminding me of the check-out time, which only made me more frustrated. The room was clean and comfortable, and the shuttle drivers were awesome. The hotel doesn't have on-site parking, though the nearby parking area means you have to take a shuttle. With a more convenient parking arrangement and a better way of handling late check-outs, the stay could be much smoother.

The windows gave us a nice view of all the rally goers riding by. The flies, though, buzzed around us the whole time we tried to eat. It felt more like eating outside than in a restaurant and gambling casino. Our server forgot a few things we asked for and brought them after we reminded him. We stopped in for a steak special, but the sign didn't say it wasn't available until 4 pm. We ate anyway. My Ruben sandwich was small and dry for the price, and there wasn't much to brag about. Maybe the steak dinner would have been better. Hopefully they can get rid of the flies.
