We did eat.albeit from one of the little casino food counters. I have never stayed at or even paid any attention to the hotel so I cannot comment on it. We stopped ONLY because we were passing by on a trip and while heading back towards home. Even though I live only a couple hours away, this is not a place I prefer to come to. Granted, could have just been my 'luck' both times.
But I would still consider them to be somewhat tight (again, speaking ONLY about 1 and 5 dollar slots.) I found this to be the case on both of my visits, again several years apart. The slots were not the tightest I've seen by any means. I mean, they clearly are not hurting for money coming in.
As big as this place is, I would have expected the slots to be a little looser. There are several of these kinds of machines as well as the usual ton of penny to 50 cent machines. Still fairly busy but not overly crowded. This time we stopped on a Thursday afternoon. The casino was packed to the point of being uncomfortably crowded. First time was several years ago and was on a Saturday night. I believe it draws a lot of it's clientele from the Portland to Salem (Ore.) area and other NW Oregon/SW Washington areas. It's a popular place in the geographic area. This is a very large Indian casino (and hotel, etc.).
