Spa Resort Casino

The Spa Resort & Casino finally joined the race of progress.
Ditching their tent constructed casino they build a new one
intended to keep dreamers around day as well as the night.
They got a head start with a location that tops the others,
one street over from the main drag in the heart of Palm
Springs. We highly anticipated a stay here.

Pulling into the circular driveway of their fancy new casino we
were antsy to pawn our cares to the valet. Reality tightened
it's grip when we were redirected to their hotel which was
unexpectedly across the street on the next block. Dejected
we headed over feeling already more like an outcast than a
guest. The valet who conducted business in a parking lot at
the front of the hotel had barely enough room for a half dozen
cars had cars which were piling up on a Wednesday night.
This was becoming more work than we cared for.

The hotel itself was a cheap remodel job of a worn out
building from 1963. When we'd finally accessed our room we
assessed our surroundings, I found complaint with the bad
curtains while we both noticed the lack of privacy from thin
walls. The pool was the highlight and made us forget our
disappointments for a while with cocktails and food delivered
while we basked in the sun. Additionally there is a fitness
center and full spa offering body treatments, massage, hair
cuts and manicures.

Unfortunately the walk from the hotel to the casino was
enough to make guests whither amidst the suns lingering
rays or reconsider the thought of heels. The old casino had
been in such dire straights that the money spent on
improving it shined. Guests at the casino can play their
favorite games or enjoy a drink and scheduled entertainment
in the Cascade Lounge with restaurants listed below:

The Steakhouse

The Noodles Bar

Agua Bar & Grill

Oasis Buffet

The Corner Deli

I guess you win some and you lose some. Their location
makes the Spa Resort & Casino the place to play, just not to
stay.
