The room upgrades are really nice. Room even had a bath. Hot tub and pool area is also nice. Everything was open in the casino like restaurants and bar. Highly recommend!! They know how to treat people here.
We have been here for the buffet many times. Always satisfied!! We had a party of six for Valentines Day buffet 2024. Something has changed. The staff was just great!! Very accommodating, polite and engaged. The food was extremely good. Our waitress had her hands full but never wavered. We are so thankful and happy with our Valentines Day dinner. Keep it up and we will definitely be back. Thank you.
The Vernon Downs Casino Hotel was a good experience, but definitely could have been a little better.
PARKING: The parking lot was pretty large, but close enough that it was not a long walk to the front entrance. To those that have EVs, this hotel does not offer charging.
CHECK IN AND ROOM: The room was much better than expected for the price, and the check in process was smooth and I got into my room in minutes. A problem with this though, is that they didn't ask for ANY ID... which I found odd? Especially considering I booked 3rd party too- I literally could have just given them a name and gotten into a room. Then, my door was unlocked, and OPEN when I got to it- definitely a safety issue, especially for those traveling alone. Some of my pillows didn't have covers on them, the couch cushions weren't cleaned, and they didn't have room service (even though there is an updated room service menu in the room).
FOOD AND CHECKOUT: The restaurants on site are pretty okay, and I recommend checking out 777 if you're looking to ball on a budget. You can get a whole combo pizza meal for like $7! Check out was a breeze, and you just drop off your keys at the front desk. Here, I asked "do you happen to have a water fountain anywhere?" to which they replied "the bathroom sinks" ... maybe it's just me, but I think a simple no would have been better lol. I then headed to the complementary breakfast- which was definitely appreciated, but I want to warn is not continental by any means. It is small generic bagels you can put in a toaster, plain donuts, orange juice, tea, and that's pretty much it. It's right next to the track though, so depending when you go, it may be nice to sit on the track and watch the horses in the morning.
CASINO: I do not gamble, but I went though the casino to get to the 777 restaurant, and as someone who has gone to many casinos in the past- it seemed as a relatively average casino. There were many normal denomination slots, all virtual. I did not see any live tables, or non-virtual slots (then again, I didn't gamble, so maybe I missed something). I think the casino could be a good option if this is the closest to you, but it truly is a very generic experience in my opinion. It is 18+, and does not serve alcohol on the floor, but does have a bar you can go to. However, there are NOT many young people here.
My husband and I did enjoy staying here together. We love the slots & food etc the only thing we don’t like is how uncomfortable the beds are as each stay we have stayed here together definitely didn’t get any sleep due to the fact the beds are so stiff, The hot tub jacuzzi suite was very small couldn’t fit more than one person in the jacuzzi. I love Vernon Downs but as a casino and hotel guess we will pass on the hotel part for now on as everything else but that is great. Staff is very friendly and helpful!
We did a quick over night stay. Very reasonable price. The only complaint we had was very limited food choices..... they said they were under staffed and couldn't open the buffet restaurant. ???
Great tiny casino, but there is nothing around it, could use an exterior remodel to look more modern. Kind of out of the way from everything, the place is a big horse race track, with a indoor casino,. Barns and casino are not a really great mix.
Went to casino
1st got there at 9 am
Were closed till noon
Went back .
See a lot of new machines
Nothing paying
Seems as if machines set so we don't win to probably pay for all the new machines.
Have to make it a little exciting if u want us to come back
