River Rock Casino Resort
PROs: Rooms are a great size and connected to the train station CONs: Coldest pool I have been in and Im Canadian. Extremely cold. Room carpets are due to be changed out. Resort is getting dated so they should remove the resort fees.

Room was smaller than expected, Extra parking fee was not mentioned at time of booking and was very high, property details said full breakfast available but was not mentioned at time of booking that this was an extra charge as well. Pool was freezing and looked merky/no clean. Jets were not working ...
