I hope you have better luck than we all did! There is a buffet available too but with only staying one night, we couldn't take advantage of everything but it was a little mini getaway and it seemed like we had been gone for one week. There are the standard table games including 21, Mississippi Stud, 3-card poker, Texas hold 'em, etc. The casino is huge with many, many machines. There are a lot of cars parked there because it takes a lot people to run such a large casino and hotel. We were on the 11th floor near the elevator and looked out of the rear of the hotel where the employees park their cars. The towels were plush and the shampoo and body cream are terrific. There's a window from the bathroom into the bedroom so when the light goes on in the bathroom, the light is also in the bedroom. It was a very good size room, nicely furnished and decorated and the bathroom was huge. You must show your room card key to security before entering the elevator to get to your room. Our server, Douglas, was very helpful and cordial. I also tasted the lobster and macaroni and the steak and everything was excellent. The total bill came in at around $280.00. I had two glasses of white wine and we ordered a bottle of Pinot Noir and another split of champagne. We had lobster macaroni and asparagus sides. The others ordered the chicken and our friends ordered steak and lobster. I ordered the shrimp with homemade tagliatelle. We ordered the charcuterie plate with our drinks and it arrived with some small pieces of thinly sliced salami, diamond cut small pieces of cheese, olives & cornichons and some slices of baguette white bread. I had the raspberry lemon martini & it was excellent. We had champage, 2 martinis and 1 rum & coke. There is a happy hour and the prices are reduced by half and so are the 'small plates' but not the appetizers. If you get there at 5:00, you can see the incredible view. We had dinner at the restaurant up at the very top of the casino called the Cielo which opens up at 5:00 PM.

There is FREE valet parking which is a great service but you obviously should always leave a tip.

The casino is an Indian casino so beware that smoking is allowed if you're sensitive or have allergies. We get offers from the casino for overnight stays, $15 match plays, buffet deals, etc., so instead of driving home late at night, we stayed overnight and used a coupon. Some friends we met on a cruise ship live in Mission Viejo and we're renting in North Palm Springs and since we all like to gamble, we opted to meet at Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa.
