Very dissapointing.
We stayed one night at the hotel
and that will be our last. The hotel was overpriced and honestly not very nice.
In fact everything at this place seemed overpriced. The food was good at the
seafood restaurant, and the buffet. But other than that everything seemed
lacking. I went with one other person on a Saturday night and didn't get even
one chance to play on a slot machine because they were full the entire night.
The casino is decorated about as exciting as a tool shed. I didn't once feel
like I was in Vegas. The hotel room was just too small, and the bathroom door
was sliding like a closet door. The staff wasn't great. We came early (not
expecting to check in already) and had no bags yet. The bellhop still went up
to the room with us, which I thought was kind of cheesy. It was also very loud
all night, lots of younger crowd with no respect for others. Every 30 minutes
we heard someone go screaming down the hallway.
I have been to Pechanga twice and
must say the staff needs some training in customer service and etiquette. I had
problem getting simple information from them. Pros: Nice facility, close to the
freeway. Cons: Rude staff, have to pay for alcohol while playing, Food is not
to good at any restaurant/snack bar/buffet. Constant shuffle machine for BJ. I
once won $1175 on slots and took attendant 45 minutes to pay me. When she came
back with the cash, she had two other leach along to get tips. Lame...
This place is nothhing like it's
neighbor, Pala Casino! Pala is a RESORT! Pechanga is a DIVE!
This place sucks, I really didn't
like it at all. I've been there twice and that was 2 times too many! The first
time I went there, I was playing 25 cent slots with the rockets on the bar
symbols that go up and down to help you get a winning combo...well, I got 3 bar
symbols lined up and one of those damn rockets moved and turned my small winner
into a loser!! I couldn't believe it, I've never seen anything like that
before!! That was my first clue that this place is really greedy (more so than
your average Indian casino). Also, they have too many CSMs and restrictive
blackjack rules like no resplitting of aces. For just a little bit more of a
drive from LA, I much prefer Pala which is head and shoulders above Pechanga.
Worst Indian Casino ever
built. The kind of people that enter the
casino are dirty and rude, which agree well with their poor staff and
service. Not only were the security and
employees irritating, but I found them to be physically and verbally
abusive. Long wait for a machine,
over-crowded, and no parking. Not worth
the drive.
I have to say that I was
disappointed. I'd heard so much about
Commerce, "the biggest, the best".
Well, it might be the biggest, but I don't think the best. The place is huge with plenty of games from
which to choose. Very little time
waiting for a table and there appeared to be many amentities for food and
beverage, (I didn't eat or drink except for a beer at the table.) That's where the good news ends. It looked like a lot of people wanted to be
in charge but nobody was really minding the store. The dealers seemed to be more concerned with
when they were going to get a break, and did not pay close enough attention to
the game. Our table had two problems
that would not have happened if the dealer was paying attention to the game
instead of looking to see who was going to relieve them. The beverage service was weak at best. I waited for 20 minutes to try and order a
beer. I finally gave up and got a
coke. The facility is very impressive,
but they could work on good old fashioned customer service.
Pechanga is a great place to go if
you do not want to drive to Vegas.this is my home away from home.
I'm really surprised that some
people find this wonderful Casino, not very good. At the contrary.. I really enjoy it and done
not bad at all. I'm a frequent guest and
I do enjoy it very much. Their Slot
machines are great, including the nonsmoking area. This casino is very accessable closed to the
freeway. Now, talking about the buffet...
they need to work a little more on the sevice.
Good thing for the huge Mall just about 2 exits. Several restaurants to
enjoy. I ussally come out even, but I
must say... it pays off to have fun at Pechanga !
Pechanga's only nice thing was the
free valet parking. The guys were very nice in and out.
Inside they don't want you to play
21, especially if you are only betting $5 or $10 dollars. Plenty of $25 tables,
though. Not one dealer smiled or said "good luck".
Their tables are spread out over a
large casino, and I asked if there were open tables for my price range. The pit
boss didn't know and sent me arounfd the whole casino.
The non-smoking are was dead
except for a $25 table open. No one cares, no customer service or drinks.
Pechanga is a very nice casino.
LOTS of machines but not enough change people. The restaurants are wonderful.
Close to freeway. The construction now is a pain but when it is finish it can
certainly be compared to a Vegas casino.
The Pechange club required you to
fill out a a form as well as drivers license.
Pechanga Casino is large! It is
easy to get to from I15. There are signs along the way. Good points – I won $13
(started with $60, left with $73.05); Very nice rest rooms, It is nicely laid
out. All most all were new machines. Staff was friendly. Problems:The
construction is still going on. The traffic sites were set for the old
configuration.Getting from your car to the casino is a hike. The coffee was not
good.
Very nice Casino facility. If you
are a non smoker forget it after
The minimum on all the card tables
was $15. A little steep for us working folks. The card machines and slots were
OK in the morning but seemed to be un-winnable after around
All machine payoffs are on slips
of paper around ATM size. However, many of the machines will not read them so
you have to go to a money changer machine or the cage to get you money. All
machines take paper money. The idea is to be able to go to any other machine
with the slips. The floor staff seemed much more interested in chatting with
each other than assisting any patron. There was no assistance if you didn't
understand a machine. The buffet however was excellent and reasonable in cost.
We arrived at 1030 AM on Friday and had no problem parking in the parking
structure. We left at 1030 PM on a Friday and could not see any open parking
spaces anywhere. They kept coming around and asking if you wanted cocktails. So
I asked for a beer then found out that they charge you for all drinks (I was
told that they can't give free alcohol in
The place is very nice and
impressive but the volume of smoking in there will destroy it in a couple of
years.
Why can't we find a band of non
smoking Indians to open a casino? I would definately be a patron as would many
others in
