| - Let me begin with the positives: The room was beautiful and housekeeping does a WONDERFUL job. The beds are comfy, there are a lot of pillows. The rooms smell lovely.
HOWEVER....the rest of the casino is less than standard. You are greeted as you enter the doors, with the old Vegas stale smoke smell that casinos like the Dunes always had before the new ventilation systems were required. We went down to try the "$7 all day buffet" that was trumpeted all over the casino--only to be told we couldn't get it without a players card.
This wouldn't be so bad--but it's not a GOOD buffet by all accounts. Patrons coming out told us so, even the employees told us not to eat there...
And the players card--well, it's not a deal. At Station Casinos, you get free play right away, you get goodies based on what you play available THEN. At the Cannery locations, you get $100 if you SPEND $100, and it is MAILED to you. That is not helpful.
So we declined, deciding if being their GUESTS doesn't allow us the discount, we really didn't want it. We went to the cafe next door to the casino. We used our coupons that came with the room. We asked for drinks, ice teas (2, one with lemon), a rootbeer and a lemonaide. We got 2 waters, two ice teas no lemon. We get the lemonaide halfway through eating the MEAL. We get the lemon at the same time.
Then we get the food. The chicken fried steak is gray in the middle. It's nearly inedible. The potatoes were raw in the middle. The service was non existent. My daughter had to lean over the back of the table to get some jelly from the table behind us.
One night, I went down to gamble. My money got stuck in three machines. Ten minute wait each time to get someone to come and take it out. Tried to order a drink, as did the lady next to me. This did not work. We were passed by at least three times by a waitress who didn't care to stop though we waved our arms and did everything but whistle.
The machines themselves were dirty. My hands were sticky when I got done playing. Gross.
The hotel requires you put your room card in the elevator to go upstairs. They don't usually work. One night, three different guests were trying with me, and none of us could get it to move. Another night, the darned thing stopped at floor five but wouldn't open for us. There is no call button inside for help. None.
My son had work to do, so we needed internet. Now, generally, internet is included even in a Motel 6, but not so at the cannery. Internet is 12.95 PER DAY..... (better yet.......wait for it....wait for it....) PER MACHINE. We got smart and just turned on our wireless hotspots on our phone which is cheaper--wow. 12.95 per day. Really?
If it were just a hotel, it would be great. Rooms are nice, clean, well appointed. However...if you are in Vegas and want to have any type of Vegas experience, don't. Just don't. Station Casinos are too numerous...
