"We were two couples traveling together and stayed one night at the Shoshone Rose Casino & Hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful—no complaints there! It was also great that the hotel is dog-friendly, as our friends were traveling with their two little pups, and that made the stay much easier for our group.
Our grand plan for the evening was to multitask like pros: toss in some laundry, then try our luck on the slots. Turns out, that plan hinged on the hotel having more than one washer and one dryer. With both occupied, we pivoted and ended up at a laundromat down the road. It got the job done, but it wasn’t quite the glamorous “laundry + casino night” vibe we had envisioned.
The real heartbreak, though, was the hot tub situation. We were very excited to soak after a long day… only to discover upon arrival that it was closed. Not a whisper of this on the website or Hotels.com—just a surprise announcement at check-in. It felt a bit like ordering a cheeseburger and being told when it arrives that they’re out of cheese… and also the burger. Such a bummer.
All that said, the stay was still good overall, and we would stay again if we’re in the area. We’d just come mentally prepared: laundry is competitive, and the hot tub may be more of a legend than an actual amenity."
