Parking is where? Self parking is not close to the valet, unless you manage to find a spot in the parking garage that isn't reserved for 'platinum gold members only'.

TIP: There's a bunch of places to go down the road, only 5 minutes from the hotel. Food looked as if it was under warming plates too long waiting for the rest of the meals to be prepared. Weird right? The food was mediocre at best, more of a restaurant for midnight meals than actual 'presentable' plates. Food wait time was so bad that another family member said he would have gone elsewhere had he known it took that long for food to be prepared. She was an older blonde lady who had a great personality. I ate breakfast at the cafe and had a lovely server. The food I hear is 'great' from the staff but the most recommended place by the staff was the bowling alley? 4 Diamond bowling alley I'm hoping. Small room, poor ventilation and dated looking decor. Go to any vegas casino and see why I say this. Couldn't find 2 seats next to each other for me and a long distance family member to enjoy, so we were forced to sit in chairs against a wall, not a big deal just uncomfortable for long periods of time. Bingo was packed with your typical older crowd. I had to speak with a manager which caused me to miss a few games, when asked for a reason I'm being charged for games I'm missing, I was eventually offered more games that I had not missed that session for the ones I did miss. I was greeted by a sneaky attempt to charge me more than what I wanted. In vegas, I'm used to my amazing bingo hall with plenty of seating and helpful service staff. TIP: The security guards will get in your face about drinking outside, use a normal container and not one labeled Viejas. This forces you to walk through the outlet mall area and cross a street, all of which you cannot do with a drink from the casino. Bingo is in a separate building all together, about a 5 min walk from the front of the casino.

TIP: Hotel Guests get 15% off at the bars in the hotel, the bartenders do not mention this. I used one bartender while I was there, and I have to say, I called him out the second he tried to get over on me, and turned out to be a decent guy. Small glasses and typical full of ice nonsense. Drink prices are far too high for such a small offering. The security guard posted nearby confirmed this and made a note to have it corrected. TIP: Don't bother using the touch screen maps as they are inaccurate as to where 'you' are. Minimal signage throughout the casino, better grab a map at the front desk. With that being said, the rest of the review will be the same regardless of the construction.
