I drive 400 miles to come to PENN/Ameristar after the family crisis just to stay at the casino for the weekend. Not that I was looking for error but things was noticeably like the toilet sit low for tall people, the mattress needs to be turned or flipped, the handle on the toilet was broken, there need to be a smoking floor / rooms for smokers .change the coffee brand in the rooms , that coffee terrible 😣

Very sad to see this casino evolve from years ago. It use to be very nice and spacious, not anymore. The first floor is closed. They packed machines next to table games next to dining. The choices of machines is terrible and if you see one to play be prepared to move on because of the homeless just sitting. This casino is dirty and not once do you see anyone cleaning. Very sad how reminiscent it is of The Majestic Star.

Stayed in the hotel one night on a trip out east. Room was large. King bed comfortable. Our room was on the 13th floor facing the marina. Quiet except for a couple rude neighbors who kept slamming their doors and waking us. Bathroom nice with soaking tin and separate shower. Played 30 dollars on the slot machines and broke even. Don't pay out much. 3 stars because the whole hallway and our room smelled like weed and it made me sick to my stomach. I hate that smell! Shouldn't be allowed in non-smoking rooms. Also no sign up credits for free play or money off at the restaurants. Employees were all friendly. Massive amounts of spiders in the garage, don't look up haha.

It has been almost a year since we were robbed in our hotel room. The so-called “head of security” and “head surveillance”has done an excellent job ignoring every phone call and voicemail since that day and has lied repeatedly about getting back to us. When I say, LIED REPEATEDLY, he has LIED REPEATEDLY. His tone is so pompous and arrogant and he has all but excused the employee(s) who entered our room and stole our money and valuables. We were still guests there but housekeeping emptied our ENTIRE room. Not 1 sock, shoe, or shirt that was in the closet made it down to their lost and found since they mistakenly assumed we had checked out when in reality we had 2 days left. Everything in our room was “removed” including money and other valuables. The security on staff continued to laugh in our face. The head of surveillance condoned what happened saying “can’t prove it so sorry about that”. The hotel management on duty was useless. Don’t even risk it. …

It has fallen off dramatically. The only table game it really has is blackjack. There is no more mississippi stud, no three card poker, or any other kind of table game. There is usually a hold'em game open and that's about it.

Lobby and room were clean and I was surprised by the Dove soaps in the room. Nothing fancy but gets the night done in a safe clean hotel. Breakfast selection was unremarkable but nice to be offered. The 1-min pancake maker would be a hit with kids I'm sure. Will look into staying again when travel again.
