Traffic getting to this casino was busy on a Sunday. Arriving & parking there were easy despite the traffic. Service was good. The casino games were so so. We liked the options at the food court and the games provided.

The Roses Gaming Resort is easy to see from the beltway and a little tricky to get to. It felt like driving to the top of a mountain. Once there we found lots of available parking in the garage. I am here during the day on a Monday. My group had lunch in the Playbook sports bar and grill. They apparently are short staffed and it took quite some time for our order to be taken and it took even longer to receive our food. The pricing is typical for bar food. I ordered flatbread supreme pizza. The portion size was generous and it was good. Others in my group ordered the St Louis Rib dinner, wings, and the fried whiting sandwich lunch special. We all registered for Rose game cards and played a few slot machines before heading home. I am not a gambler so this was a okay experience for me.

The area that's supposed to be restaurants, empty except for a bartender at 1 pm on a Saturday afternoon.

It bills itself as a 24-hour resort. There are few amenities that would make me call it a resort. The only thing open 24 hours is the slot machine area. 10:30 am on a weekend, no restaurants are open. When the restaurants ARE open, you can't order at the restaurant, you have to go elsewhere to order. After paying a TIP for service, they simply yell at you to come get your food. They promise a free breakfast, but it's a plastic packaged muffin and a bottle of Apple juice hanging on your door. They claim to have a casino, but they have no tables. Only video slots. Couldn't find the front of the hotel. Followed signs and ended up walking down 6 flights of stairs (no obvious elevator) to find the lobby. The room was clean and spacious, but the only view from ANY of the hotel rooms is the I-95 corridor with the Dumfries Road cloverleaf. If you like paying premium prices to look at the interstate and get yelled at to get a to-go box of food from a "restaurant," come here. If you want a resort atmosphere, don't bother... there are much nicer properties in Woodbridge for less.

Slots slots and more slots!

Ok I've seen enough. If you're accustomed to the original casino style establishments then you may want to come to the Rose with lower expectations. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that Virginia is finally starting to open up the doors for gambling. We were definitely falling behind in the battle for entertainment. The rose is good for a quick date night to just people watch and play a couple of "gaming machines". Im still a little confused on the type of machines the Rose has since they go based off of old horse races and not RNG. The proximity of the games can seem a table claustrophobic when maneuvering around. The onone plus is that they boast TONS of the new games, something MGM lacks. Parking is not an issue as there are plenty of spaces and levels to park your car. They have security, but I didn't see them too ofoften outside of the entrances. Ill have to come back to try the food, but from what I saw others around me have...I'll let them work the kinks out.

From garage - no signage. Where do you go?
April J.

First, this IS The Rose. Correct address is 17680 Colonial street (off Rt 1). Parking is free. **Grand opening is Thurs. Nov 7th If you park on Level 2 (or higher) in the garage, take the elevators DOWN, to level 1. (Elevators currently do not have any signage as to which floor to get off). Use the kiosk to enroll/print new cards if you rather not wait in the cashier line. Just need your license and email address. For typical table gamblers...there are NOT any table games, nor are there virtual Roulette, Poker or BlackJack machines. Slots only. Again, no virtual (table) games right now (soft opening). For the neat drinkers.... this Churchill Downs racino is NOT allowed to serve you a neat beverage. Your drink will be served with ice. If you ask for a double cocktail, it will be served in 2 separate cups. A 12oz filet inside Prime Cuts is $90. Steaks at The Playbook bar are subpar. Ive seen several rejected. The $3 tacos were eh, okay. Some liquors are dispensed into your glass from a gun. Live entertainment (DJs/band) music is so loud, you cannot hear the person or bartender. They do have the NFL Sunday ticket.

The police talking to the bully (the security supervisor)
Christine R.

Unfortunately the security shift supervisor Jeanine Walker has ruined the Rose experience for me. Her inappropriate actions towards me I felt unsafe staying there. It's preposterous that she called the police twice when she in fact was the one badgering others, ie me and my guests and tremendously lacked resolution skills. She laughed when the police officer Lewis yelled at me for smoking outside , wanting my freedom to be taken away because something annoyed her is not a joking matter. There was no arrest made, there was no need for her to call. I called the police along with her the second time and stayed on the phone with dispatch for my safety. After Jeanine Walkers "the security shift supervisor" despicable harassment towards me, I no longer feel safe to patron this establishment. She's a bully and to hold the position she has having power trips at 4am is very dangerous. Ms Edith hotel staff amazing, Roby hotel staff awesome, Marissa hotel staff fantastic they made me feel welcomed every time I came there and Lian I cannot forget she's top tier and Mikel he's a gem! Additionally after reading further reviews I'm relieved it isn't just me recognizing the rapid decline. I will not be returning, I will make my experience on 9/10/25 known to everyone that it's just not worth going. I entertain guests all the time and the level of disrespect my guests and I received, it's unbelievable! Changes to security protocols and procedures needs to be addressed before it turns into a lawsuit. Insisting the police arrest me because I'm outside smoking a cigarette whenever I want at a non smoking room/hotel is diabolical.

Not yet OPEN.

The road leading to the casino from the main road is very long and uphill. This is because the casino is built on a "former dumping ground". They have an attached parking garage as well as EV chargers for electric vehicles. They have visible security as well. Upon entering. You're greeted and must pass through body scanners. **SEE PICS** ,If you're carrying a backpack or anything. It must be searched before entering. Not a very good first impression. Even Atlantic City doesn't do this. If trying to take pictures or videos. Security INSTANTLY says NO PHOTOS OR VIDEOS INSIDE. The reasoning security gave was "the people in Dumfries, VA" wish to remain anonymous. After notifying security. "This is Dumfries, VA" and almost laughing while saying it. I just said OK. There are walls and walls of machines. Mostly all of them are entirely SERVER-BASED. Which unlike the "classic" machines. Server-based machines can be controlled REMOTELY. Settings and other parameters can be changed remotely. The ventilation inside is not bad. There's a good amount of fresh free flowing air inside. The A/C Could've been better due to the large amount of people at the grand opening. The general area is clean. But unlike Atlantic City where the employees are wiping down the free machines not in-use. Here. No machines are being wiped down to prevent germs from spreading due to the large amount of use. Which is a major negative in terms of "cleanliness". The bathrooms are stocked with RETAIL LEVEL NON-COMMERCIAL & NON-TAMPER PROOF SOAP bottles "SEE PICS" which is even worse due to everyone after using the bathroom is touching the SAME PUMP on the bottle BEFORE sanitizing their hands. The payout on the machines are hard to really comment on DUE TO THE FACT. Rose is presumed NOT CLASSIFIED as a "Casino" but as a "Gaming Resort". Unsure if "certain" gaming regulations even apply to this place due to the naming terminology". The food area is "technically" outside of the gaming area. Which means if you go to the food area. You must go through security again. It's still inside but outside of the gaming area. There's different food places to get food but pricing however is heavily inflated due to the inside of a "gaming resort" factor. The "gaming resort" leaves something to be desired. Two MAJOR DOWNFALLS: The first one is the "advertising terminology" utilized inside of their promotions on their website and TV ads. On their promotional materials. They say "For new and returning members" you get a GUARANTEED $125 in free play then THEY END THE SENTENCE WITH A PERIOD INSTEAD OF A ASTERISK which would indicate additional "fine print" is applicable to this sentence. Inside of their second paragraph they say "Current Rosie's Rewards Club Members and new members who enroll at The Rose have 5 opportunities to win up to $500 in Free Play. Plus, the rewards only get bigger the more trips you make to The Rose." This technically contradicts the previous wording because the sentence has already ENDED with the period as well as they say "PLUS THE REWARDS ONLY GET BIGGER" the more trips you make. The "PARTIAL payout" of the $125 gets bigger INCREMENTALLY but it's still within the minimum payout of the same outcome as well as there's NO END DEFINED which means even after you collected the minimum payouts leading to $125 , The promotion is saying the rewards should keep getting bigger and bigger the more trips you make. Sounds almost "infinite" lol. , BUT INFACT THE PROMOTION ENDS HERE. The wording would suggest "Infinite" ,lol. The last part then says with a ASTERISK IN THE BEGINNING saying "*Visit us 5 times within 28 days of enrollment and receive a guaranteed $125 in Free Play." Now since the ASTERISK is only on this sentence as well as in the beginning. It's almost equivalent to saying an entirely new part of a promotion because of the wording. "A GUARANTEED" instead of referring to the same existing promotion above. Asterisk usually implies "fine print" but this entire promotion is worded VERY BADLY.... A Consumer would think they're getting $125 on their first visit. But IN REALITY. They're not. This was verified due to the fact after leaving the "gaming resort" and sitting in traffic. You could hear car after car after car with their windows down due to the hot weather arguing very loudly over the "Promotion terminology". The 2nd downfall is: The CLASSIFICATION of this "gaming resort" and if it's even applicable to gaming regulations such as MINIMUM PAYOUT REQUIREMENTS like REAL CASINOS ARE. Overall first & probably last time here. As well as the no pictures or videos policy inside leaves a "mystery" feeling as to why.

Red Roof Inn - King Superior Room

Red Roof Inn

Our stay in this facility, along with one at another Red Roof the night before, have convinced us…read moreto reluctantly give up on the Red Roof brand we have preferred in our travels for many years. I am sure there are plenty of branches in the chain that would live up to our expectations, but these two did not, so the chain is no longer reliable enough to count on. The older couple on duty when we checked in were fine. Especially the wife, who is obviously the brains of the operation when they are working, and who is helpful and pleasant. We got our room key (only one key card for two of us, oddly enough), but when we stepped into the room we were knocked back by the small of cigarettes. I am sure cigarette smells are difficult to eradicate from a room, but I am not convinced any effort had been made in this case. So I went back to the front desk and the woman helpfully grabbed her master key and we went in search of a suitable room. The first one we checked was having ceiling work done, she remembered, and the next one turned out to be occupied, so we tried a third room and I didn't smell cigarette, so that was the winner. We settled in. There were a couple of small issues right out of the gate, such as there being no coffeemaker. You know, those tiny one-cup things hotels seem to use nowadays? We don't make dreadful coffee with them, but they are handier than using a microwave to heat water to make our own hot drinks. Also, the toilet didn't flush efficiently, so a second flush was often required to get the job done. But later in the evening a worse problem evolved: a multiple dripping water leak from the ceiling near the interior door to the hallway. It was dripping in three places and the plaster looked like it had been repaired already for such a leak previously. I went down to the lobby and the old gentleman was there. He asked if we wanted a new room because maintenance wouldn't be able to look at it until the next morning. I said we could live with it if it didn't get worse as it was not in our living space but just next to the door. I asked if they wanted to look at it and maybe put a bucket down. Plus I suspected it was related to a shower being taken and they could see exactly where it was leaking. But he just asked a couple more times if we wanted a new room, so I figured we had reached the end of our conversation. I reiterated that we were fine and went back to the room. Later on the drip stopped, as I had surmised it would. I think the woman would have wanted to do more, but who knows? So this wasn't a tragedy for just one night, but as I said, it feels like the Red Roof brand is not up to the standard when we started using it when we traveled with pets many years ago.

This hotel was dark, dirty, and run down. And that's just the exterior in lobby. Thankfully, I did…read morenot experience any of the actual rooms because they had a water pipe burst and didn't have any rooms available. The man at the front desk apologized and said I would get a full refund. However, when I called the company to request my refund, they did not want to give it to me. And in fact, tried to accuse me of never showing up for my reservation. So I am currently battling to get my money back.
