Vee Quiva Hotel Casino

I haven't stayed overnight, so I can't say anything about the rooms, but the place was clean and had a fresh feel. People I passed said hello, and everyone I interacted with was really polite. The food has been excellent at all the restaurants I've tried. I usually get the Indian taco, and sometimes I make the trip just to pick one up when I don't feel like cooking dinner. It's also only seven minutes from my home, which is very convenient. When you walk up to the doors, someone greets you with a smile and opens them, then wishes you luck and tells you to have fun.

For our first stay at Vee Quiva, my husband and I had a lot of fun celebrating our 24th anniversary, and we'd come back. I do think there should be an option for a little extra something when guests are marking a special occasion. At the tables, people were especially kind when they found out I'd never played Black Jack. They explained things and pretty much taught me how. The food also went beyond what we expected. At Full house Cafe, we recommend the fried zucchini and fish and chips; at Chick and Egg, the egg, cheese, and sausage biscuit was good. Thanks for the memories.

I keep giving this place another shot and leave disappointed every time. As an AZ local who's tried pretty much every casino in Arizona, I don't think you're missing much by skipping this one. The casino feels dirty, the machine selection is awful, and staff act like you're invisible a lot of the time. The Dragon Link games are especially frustrating. Their audio is so quiet that I can't tell whether it's broken or just turned down on purpose. Hearing the bonuses, music, and energy is part of the fun, and these machines feel dead without it. There's also nearly always someone hovering over, saving, or lingering at the machine I want, and staff don't seem to step in. I don't get the hype. Wild Horse Pass or one of the Talking Stick casinos is cleaner, friendlier, has a better selection, and makes for a better experience.

For the price, the casino was good, with a nice variety of machines, and the staff were friendly. It's a smaller hotel and casino in a convenient spot. The rooms were very nice and had mini fridges, though no safes. The bars could use more standard supplies like bitters and simple syrup. Food choices are limited, and the cafe was the best option. We had a good stay. It's not as nice as Wildhorse, but it's not bad at all.
