I enjoyed my stay, as the resort offers clean and spacious rooms along with a variety of on-site amenities like pools and restaurants. The staff was friendly and accommodating, which added to the overall comfort of my experience. However, the dining situation was a bit chaotic during my stay due to understaffing, leading to long wait times, and the pervasive smell of smoke in the casino was off-putting.

I had a pleasant stay at the Talking Stick Resort, where the large, clean rooms and comfortable amenities made my visit enjoyable. The pool area was a highlight, boasting multiple entrances and ample lounge chairs, which added to the relaxation factor. However, I felt a bit put off by the early morning security check at the pool, which left me feeling unwelcome. Overall, the convenience of having a shuttle service to local attractions was also a nice touch, though the casino atmosphere might not be for everyone.

Talking Stick Resort offers a unique experience with its combination of a casino and hotel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, while the food options across the various dining venues are quite good. However, be prepared for the smoky environment in the casino area, and housekeeping could be a bit more timely with room cleaning. Overall, it's a lively place with plenty of amenities for an entertaining stay.
