Wow! This place really suprised me. I thought it would have been a fun and exciting experience like they make it look in the commercials. The food coming out of thier food court is disgusting and not worth the price. I don't think that it is fair to have to wait a long time to get bad food in return. I thought this big company would know better by having more workers and "exceeding guest expectations" but I guess not.
Every time i go to Ccharlestown I lose all the money I had with me. but that's o.k. - I expected that. I would like to see my money last a little longer. I have seen extremely few jackpots hit.
I do like the spam slots. You are not going to win anything, but they are a lot of fun to play. I am going to concentrate my trips to the PA casino in washington. I have much better luck there.
My husband and I use to go to CT about once every 3 months. Up until about a year ago, we could easily go with 2 or 3 hundred dollars a piece and play all night, eventually we lost everything, but we had fun doing it. Now we go and we can easily lose the 2 or 3 hundred within an hour.
I don't expect to win when I go to a casino, I consider it a big arcade, but I would like to have some fun and not just lose everything as soon as I sit at a machine. I don't know what happened to them, but it is not good.
i went down there just to check it out, didnt bring much money, just 20 bucks, played on pennies just for the experience for about an hour and a half, won nothing,
decided to try out a 25 cent machine and on my second try, I won 127 bucks.
? A few minutes later i tried a 5 cent machine and won another 30 on my third try.
My advice, move around, dont sit there at the same lame machine all night,
As others have stated, the slots are way too tight. My wife and I have been going to Charles Town since 2001. It used to be fun. Most of the time we always walked out with a profit and stayed most of the day on $200 to $300. Than half way through 2006 it all changed!!
Now you are lucky if you are still there with $400 after 2 hours. They are just taking advantage of people. I would like to play on their money sometimes. You go there for entertainment. Charles Town fails in giving us entertainment. You may ask, why do you go than? Yes it's a habit, a bad habit and we always think that it will be different when we go back. WRONG. So bad that we have stopped going as much as we used to. In fact I don't play that much anymore. I just walk around with my wife and watch her play. Save your money and go to Atlantic City.
We went tonight and this is what happened. We left the house at six, got there a little after seven. Played 6 slots won $90. Had dinner at the SunDance Grill. I'll give the food there an A. After dinner we played 15 more machines and won $50. Played back the $140 that we won and by a little after nine we were going home $400 poorer and yes mad! We were home by 10:15. So say two hours travel time. Thirty minutes for dinner. A hour and half playing slots. Not too much fun. Yes the only hot machines are the ATM's and if you know any better you will stay away from them!
