Went to casino last year and got a member card. Visited again this May and forget my card so went to the desk and handed them my Canadian driving license at the same time requesting another card. They said I needed a passport as I was a "foreign national". I asked why I needed a passport just to get another card? Policy. I asked to speak to a manager. I have never been asked to produce a passport in any of the ten or so casinos that I frequent in Oregon, Washington, California. I was told it was policy and that I could not go into the casino without producing my passport. They were extremely unpleasant and I was totally caught off guard. Some Canadian friends went later that evening. One of them signed up for the first time to get a member card and was not asked to produce her passport. Has anyone else ever been asked to produce their passport in a casino?
Last time I ate your buffet it was terrible and dirty, there was food on the floor and spilled in front of the hot food on counter. All the hot dishes and fresh salads were almost empty and not refilled in the 45 minutes I was there.
As for the slots, not too bad, I've been there many times and not won a dime but also have won quite a bit on other occassions, luck of the draw I guess. The casino is looking pretty sad. Time to clean up and remodel and for pity sakes hire someone who knows how to operate your buffet, providing good food and a clean area, especially for what it costs I don't mind paying for it if it is worth it.
I have learned to stay away from the upstairs buffet. Got sick last time eating overcooked seafood and raw turkey. I would never trust the slot machines. I suspect they are preprogrammed not to pay out big jackpots and have watched the reels sticks on several occasions. Where is the oversite? That being said the tables are a lot of fun. Not all staff are friendly, but I'm sure they only make minimum wage. My advice would be to play at the tables, bring your own food, and take time to enjoy the beach!
