They do charge a $16 resort fee to cover the pool and parking. I got a good price on the room, around $110. It was similar to a good Vegas buffet, not quite up to Bellagio's but probably as good as Rio's. plus they had prime rib, a variety of salads, side dishes and desserts. The best surprise was their delicious seafood buffet (Thursdays) where they served scored crab legs both steamed and cold, shrimp, sushi, crawfish, etc. are all very Vegas looking but I didn't gamble much so I couldn't really remark much there. The pool area is large and inviting and I think kids would love it.

I even went to the spa for a massage and it was very nice. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I stayed here one night while on business travel and my room was spacious, clean, comfortable, and well appointed. They've done a good job of trying to create a Vegas style casino right off the I-10 about 30 miles west of Palm Springs. So all things considered, this is not a luxury resort but it is clean and convenient and fun. The casino is not large but easy to navigate and they have all the games that I enjoy. I also played the hotel golf course and it has a nice layout and is fun to play. The waiters also make sure your glass is constantly filled with champagne. There were plenty of buffet selections and the food was pretty fresh tasting. This restaurant is a little pricey but it was worth it. The service was excellent and the food was very good.

There are some awesome views from this restaurant. We dined at 'Cielo' which is a restaurant located at the top of the hotel. When we got to our room I was kind of surprised at how plainly decorated it was. Our check in was smooth and fast and the staff was very friendly. There is a golf club associated with the hotel and there is an outlet store shopping mall next door to the hotel. We stayed here because the location seemed to offer everything we were looking for.
