Of the 2,500 slot machines there, penny slots seem to be in the majority by far. If you've ever been there, you'll definitely have Deja Vu. I strongly believe this casino was designed by the same firm that designed the one down in Rohnert Park, CA, right off of 101 about 50 miles north of San Francisco. I'll just tell you what I observed and experienced during my 3+ hours visit. You can look stuff up on their website, or call them with questions. I didn't anticipate writing this review when I spontaneously went there on a weekday morning, so I didn't take notes or pay attention to all the details of their facility. The most obvious reason is that it's right off of I-5, only about 20 miles north of the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area.

We would have done some gambling, but the burning eyes and sore throat, from the smoke was more than we could handle. We will be back to try Michael Jordans steak house, but if that fails to impress, we will not be back. In this day and age, you would think you would cater more to the non smokers, and not to the 16 percent who do. However she said she would not buy anything there, because she thought the smell of smoke would require her to have them laundered before she could wear them. It was very nice, my wife loved the clothes, and purses. We walked around for a while, and went into the boutique. Way to much money for what you got, and the smell of smoke ruined any ambiance that they may have had. She didn't say anything, or ask us who ordered what.

The server just dropped the plates of food on the other side of the table, instead of placing it in front of us. Our waitress was very good, but they have others bring your food. Calimari was very rubbery, and the rest of our meal was about as good as you would expect from Dennys. We tried Line & Lure restaurant, and was very disappointed. It's like declaring your living room is half smoking, and the other half is non smoking. They say there are smoking, and non smoking areas.
