Really nice rooms, great people who work there. Odds of winning a decent amount aren't that good, though. More

Mardi Gras Casino is ok only because its the only casino around. I have been to casinos around the world and Mardi Gras does not stack up.

I can't remember what... More

Hotel rooms are beautiful, food is good, staff is friendly and its non smoking! Several hotels within a short distance, the casino provides a shuttle, that are way cheaper - look at hotels in the Cross Lanes area - More
