The breakfast was the same as most breakfast You get from a hotel chain.

The upstairs hallways and rooms were a little disappointing in terms of niceness, but everything I needed was there. I would give it 4 stars based on the above. However, I had some problems with my door code to get in on the first day. When I called to get it worked out, the employee gave me the master code. Obviously, yes, I wanted into the building and my room. But it's never acceptable for a guest at a hotel to have a code for other rooms. If relying on a locking system like this, there needs to be a secure way to solve problems without giving out the master code. For this reason, I have to deduct another star.

So I guess that makes us even being that we paid a couple hundred bucks for a Hotel room we didn't use. The bartenders at the casino are busy talking to each other and there's not much interest in taking care of the customers that are paying money there. It was just OK ---nowhere that I would rush to go back to. The reason I gave it three stars is because of Patty in the back. She's at the customer service desk so I guess she knows about customer service. She set up our Player Cards and was the bright light in this otherwise dim episode. Shout out to her!

He went out to get it and on the way in, security would not let him in because he appeared intoxicated. He doesn't drink or use drugs if any kind. I talked to a manager and he said that once a decision is made, there is no changing it. We actually called the Jefferson police department and asked to come do a breathalyzer and sobriety test. The officer came but said they have the right to refuse anybody. They say their employees are specifically trained for such problems. Really? How does a person with over 10 years sobriety get refused due to intoxication? Very disappointing. Oh well, we like to spend money and Prairie Meadows is happy to have our business.

The door to our room did not close and literally could be pushed open with 1 finger although you thought it was locked. When I asked the employee if the manager was there his response was the manager doesn't stay here. He stays in a nicer place. The health department should shut this place down. Have a nice day.

But alas -- we were told to sit and wait until til 3pm. Two other couples arrive and they checked them in. So there I stood in line behind them. I mentioned to Malikia that it would have been great to be told they had rooms and we could get our room since we were waiting quietly but no. It's not that kinda place. Like the other reviews you might read about this place-- customer service is not their strong suit. We paid more than Hotels.com quoted. It was mediocre at best. We left a day early.

Unfortunately, David's travel arrangements were compromised, and he was unable to make the trip. I've already booked a make-up trip in December, primarily to see his 96 year-old grandfather. Although you couldn't do cartwheels in this suite, it was very roomy and comfortable. And with 2 bathrooms, Gayle and I each picked one. The spare bedroom became a place to store or suitcases (and repack). We slept well in our bedroom and spend a lot of time in the living room, largely catching up on all of our volunteer work back home. There's also a nice small kitchen, which makes this and other suites a good choice for extended or larger family stays. Front desk staff were very engaged and keen to make sure we had a nice stay. The "free hot breakfast" was relatively standard, but tasty. I especially appreciated that coffee was available in the Lobby at all hours and that the breakfast food was out earlier than the stated time. This hotel is relatively new and has worn its age very well so far. Parking was free and plentiful and there was easy access to US 30.
