    This is my first time coming to this casino. Had wonderful customer service from a delightful staff member Sandy in high roller room. I had to have her explain some features and she was so patient and didn’t make me feel like I was a bother. Your casino is very nice and the parking lot was well lit and felt very safe being alone as 3 ladies walking in and out late in evening. What a great time…and Sandy had a lot to do with us having such a wonderful experience here tonight. We will definitely come back! Please extend to Sandy she is definitely an asset to your establishment. Appreciate your kindness Sandy and professionalism. You are the best!

    I had the opportunity to go to American Place Casino today for the first time and I was honestly blown away by the service the entire time I was there. The first person I met was Marilou at the rewards area when I signed up for a players card. She walked me through the entire process and was exceptional. Will be coming back to hopefully shoot content soon for our YouTube page and look forward to spending more time there!

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS CASINO. YOU WILL NEVER WIN HERE. THEIR MACHINES IS SET TO JUST TAKE MONEY AND YES YOU'LL GET LITTLE BONUS OR LITTLE WIN JUST TO SHOW MACHINES LOOKS LIKE IT WILL PAY. BUT IT WILL TAKE MORE AND MORE OF YOUR MONEY! ANY DAY IS SET AS TO LOOSE MORE AND MORE ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS DRAWINGS OR GIVE AWAYS THAT ARE NOT WORTH OF GETTING THEM BECAUSE THEY'LL TAKE MORE OF YOUR MONEY. BELIEVE ME IT'S TRUE AND NOT EVEN ENJOYABLE TO VISIT.

    My first visit at the casino was a really pleasant experience. Justice at the player's window, is an asset to the organization. She explained all the perks and benefits of the player's card. Explained the layout of the casino. Service at the bar was impressive. I was there in the afternoon, and the woman bartender went out of her way to find a sparkling wine or prosecco for me. I didn't get her name to write an a review. As I was walking around, I noticed the group of people and I asked what the occasion was. They were giving out employee recognition awards, and I was really impressed that the organization values their associates. And what a nice touch right on the bar free waters and coffee. Definitely, a really nice casino, and I'll be back.
