“When you drive up to this gas station my first impression is the outside décor is very nice! The lights are aesthetically pleasing and inviting. When I went inside I noticed something I never would have guessed existed from the outside; A CASINO! I would rate this a 5 star but how can I when I truly had no idea it was there and I feel this was a big blunder having no sign? Why in the world would such a clean and inviting casino make the mistake of not having a sign outside? Being from Las Vegas the signs are a vital part of letting tourists and locals alike see an inviting neon sign pointing to the building basically saying "Come inside! Get a drink! Relax and win money!!" It's a little mind blowing a company with such an asset would make this mistake. The casino itself is really awesome; I was not even there an hour when I hit the Royal Flush and Lisa H, who was working at the time, was super friendly and helped me quickly! She served me the champagne I requested and was a pure pleasure to interact with. Definitely on par with the Las Vegas casino slot techs I'm used to. I really hope the owners will consider adding a sign, I have a feeling it would attract many more people excited to try a new casino that's a truly remarkable work of art with their beautiful bar and attractive interior. Thanks for the win!”
