    We had a room close to the door that leads to the casino, people were coming in and it was quite loud sometimes at night

    Clean, spacious rooms. Lots of parking. Staff is friendly

    I was disappointed with how I was treated by security at the casino. I was profiled for wearing a durag and a bandana. They told me I could keep the durag on but had to remove the bandana and keep it hidden in my pocket. While I understand they may have been concerned about gang activity—which involves organized groups engaging in criminal behavior—and gang relations, meaning associations or appearances linked to gang identity, assuming someone is involved in that based solely on clothing is unfair. Wearing a bandana doesn't automatically mean gang affiliation. I was wearing it to catch sweat on a hot day—it was functional, not symbolic. Plus, the casino is themed around First Nations culture, where bandanas and patterned garments are often worn as a part of tradition and style. Most importantly, nowhere in the casino was there any posted rule or notice about a dress code. If there are restrictions, they should be clearly stated. I expected more fairness and professionalism from the security team.

    The staff was friendly and the place was very clean.

    The cost for my dog. The fees are unreasonable. Other places I have used over the years go from free to approx. $40. Having a registration fee on top of daily fee is just a money grab. The other thing was litter, mainly water bottles and beer cans on the grass areas that have accumulation in the grassy areas between the parking lots

    Clean, room ready early

    There were no coffee makers or microwaves in the room. The combination of the position of the shower wand and the shower curtain produced a lot of water on the bathroom floor.

    Lots of handicap parking. The bed was very comfortable.

    Room AC’s are kind old, clunky, and a little temperamental. Although very tidy, I think this hotel would be great if just a little extra care was put into cleaning. It wasn’t dirty by any means, it just needs a little extra effort.

    Room was comfortable, WiFi very good, plenty of parking, convenience store across the street. Didn’t go to the casino so I can’t tell you too much about that. Gym was a little tight, free coffee in the morning. Very pleasant at check-in.

    We had to call security at 12:30 am, because there was some loud chatter going on in the hallway for over an hour. The situation was promptly rectified!

    We like this location because it is far away from traffic noise, and is good value compared to other accommodations in the area.

    They need to add back the morning breakfast at the hotel or provide vouchers to eat breakfast at the casino. They did not have enough 2 bed rooms when we book so we had to book 2 single bed rooms for the second night but when we arrived they did have 2 bed rooms for both nights but they did not allow us to cancel the single bed rooms for the second night. Used a room that I did not need because no refund was allowed

    Expect to wait for lots of stuff as they're terribly understaffed! Yet those present, are pleasant, accommodating, and haul ass best they can to serve... Rooms have walls on the thinner side, but beds are comfortable, tv is clear and crisp, include most of the typical amenities ( no coffee maker in mine ) and are kept spotless. Lots of free self-parking with supposed 24 hour surveillance...your guess is as good as mine there? Prices are overall 10-20% higher, and portions are smaller for food and beverages compared to any Gateway property, but all was fresh and delicious... Casino is small and slots are limited. Only let it ride, blackjack, roulette, and four card poker tables were available at any time. Only a few video poker machines with two styles of play on each. Pretty solid first visit, but I'll likely return to Rama next time
