So... Being a frequent traveler and former hotel and restaurant manager, I think I can provide an accurate review of the hooters casino and resort. First off, the cost of the room will fit even the most frugal traveler. That being said, if you are looking for a room that is safe, with beds and a tv, you can definately stay here.
However, I can honestly say I would never bring a friend here. I've stayed at the flamingo before, against the better judgements of my friends, and that place, while seeming simular in age was a far better bang for the buck. The casino is very small...basically all on one main room, with the tables up front. Orange is the theme, with good reason, but everything looks...well...old. The decor is very reminiscent of a beach house with surfboards, raw wooden crown-molding, and pictures that wouldn't make the cut for being hung in your 'main' home
The gambling was not very lucky, which could have just been me, but all of my buddies agreed that they would rather spend their mony on the tables at some of the larger casinos.
The food is Hooters... No more, no less. If you love Hooters, then you'll love it, but if you are indifferent, then you will think its slightly than McDonalds. Of course, I had wings, and I wasn't disappointed... But really. It's not hard to fry wings.
The staff, in their friendly uniforms? Well, same as the hooters restaurant near you. Some were very attractive, some were average, and some were downright embarrassing. Dont think that you have managed to tour the mother ship where all of the ladies of hooters are molded from...because that's not it. As a bonus, some dealers are wearing hooters hot pants and plunging necklines, but you have to think of the reason to gamble...and it ain't to see beauties.
I did see plenty of kids that their parents brought, as well as a huge game room for the parents to dump their kids while they get their game on...but personally, I would make this a family vacation destination.
Would I come back?... I suppose. Would I reccomend? See the above review... GOOD LUCK FOLKS.
