It is described by some as a nice place and an impressive operation with a pleasant atmosphere. The rooms are noted as very clean and neat. Some dining receives high praise, with mentions of top tier food, specifically the seafood gumbo and crab cakes at one grill. However, other experiences with dining were negative, including a missed buffet, cold food after a long wait, and operating hours that were not conducive for some visitors.
The gaming experience receives mixed feedback. While some enjoy the games and note plenty of jackpots being hit, others find the slots very tight and very hard to win anything, leading to disappointment.

Overall, experiences vary, with some guests planning to return and others stating their trip will be their last.
