Met some friends there for breakfast. Was going to have the buffet, but that didn't open till 8 AM. Went to the coffee shop and was pleasantly surprised. I had eggs (scrambled) with chicken fried steak and biscuits and gravy. Gravy was good, not great, but good. One friend had eggs, bacon and toast. Another friend had…

The short version
What visitors say about Don Laughlin's Riverside Resort Hotel and Casino
Don Laughlin's Riverside was the first hotel in town, and it still packs a lot under one roof: bowling, movie theaters, an arcade for kids, a spa, live shows and a car museum. Some river view rooms in the towers have balconies over the water. A couple on their first visit this spring praised dinners at the Gourmet Room and at the Prime Rib Room, the friendly blackjack dealers and their front row seats at a tribute show.
The hotel shows its age. Reviewers describe dusty rooms, dirty carpets and windows, and beds that sag or feel lopsided, and the buffet and the Riverside restaurant draw more complaints than praise. Families were frustrated when pools closed for wind or a private party. Several guests found staff short with newcomers, and two objected to housekeeping entering their rooms uninvited. A resort fee applies.

We went to the riverside restaurant with high expectations. My dad use to work there years ago and was telling me how good the food was. Saying disappointing is completely an understatement!! Our waiter acted like we put him out when we asked for 2 drinks. My dad ordered a breakfast which the eggs were so dry it was…
This is my very first time coming to Laughling and I would have to say, due to this hotel, it might be my last! Housekeeping will wake you up 3 hrs before check out time by knocking and then proceeding to open the door when they can wait
