From the outside its obvious the place is still under construction. Little to no signage. Still looks like rusted steel mill from the outside. Hotel is under construction as is additional gaming space. Interior keeps a bit of the steel mill theme. Simple, tasteful and machines are very widely spaced. Very wide aisles prevent people from bumping into each other. Machines all new and there is a good variety.
Only two sit down restaurants: Emiril's - very,very expensive and an Irish Pub which is reasonably priced with a 2 hour wait at 6PM on a Saturday and they do not take reservations. Food court is better than most, good variety and reasonably priced. No buffet.
Staff was reasonably friendly, waitress service very uneven depending on your location on the gaming floor. Alcohol is free - major advantage over competitors Mohegan Sun @ Pocono and Mt. Airy where liquor is free to only premium card members. Needs more restaurants and I'll bet when the place is done they will have them and much more. Off to a better than decent start.
Surrounding area is grim, very grim. I hope the casino/hotel sparks local development. Stark difference from bucolic Mt. Airy setting and open spaces of Mohegan Sun @ Pocono. Completed hotel better have extraordinary amenities for anyone to want to stay overnight in this neck of the rust belt.
