"I've tried 3 times to write this review and got kicked off the site. Sans town need new machines. The mattresses needs to be replaced. You can't get room service. The place is dead now. No bands any more. The food at Smokey Joe's is delicious. Look at the casino in Oak Grove and Mint. They have good machines. Get the red dragon machines they have. Shop around to different places to see the environment, and the people that's there. No enthusiasm what so ever. I like Sam's town. It's not the same since they tore down everything. The hallways are spooky. Make a change"

"Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Hotel checkin was quick. The casino itself was dead. There wasn't very many people at all and the machines were definitely not paying. We ate at Smoky Joe's and it was good food."
Rebecca Phillips
"No front desk staff available after a certain hour, arrived in the room the smoke smell is strong and horrible. The entire room stink. The room had spider webs in the ceiling that made it very uncomfortable to sleep. Bed are very hard. I called down to front desk with the complaint they did offer to buy me in another room but when I asked would the next room be more cleaner than I’m in they stated they’re not sure because they’re just security and was left to hand out keys and front desk won’t be in until 8. This is horrible service. Will not be booking here again."
