Great place to stay. We just had a quick one night visit but overall enjoyed the atmosphere of the hotel. The only downside is that the room smelled like cigarette smoke, even though we were on a non-smoking floor.

Nice room terrible service and area
The room was clean and comfortable but finally after the 3rd time trying to check in we got our room. Checkin was at 4 and we finally got our room about 4:30
No apologies or discounts for our wait
They tried giving us a room with 2 beds when we paid for an upgraded king bed room
We went to a concert at Horseshoe Casino and other than that it seemed like there was nothing to do. It's like they built these places in a slum

Ameristar review
We reserved a deluxe king with lake view. Upon arrival we were given a king room with view of steel mill. After not being satisfied I complained to front desk and were moved to a room with two queens with lake view without being offered any adjustment for our first night stay.

Ok but dated decor
The room was big but the decor was dated. There was a large stain in the carpeting in the middle of the floor. The bed seemed short in length compared to beds in other hotels.
