Just a note, you can hear the highway noise somewhat even up seven floors and although it was not disturbing to us, it might bother some people. Our room was on the seventh (7th) floor looking towards the East/Northeast with a great view of the mountains in the distance and direct view of Interstate 5. The hotel staff are very accommodating and eager to help. First, this is a brand new building and everything is sparkling clean and new. All I had to do is change the offer code to 'MOMENTUM' and it cleared all the room charges. I actually made the room reservation before I realized this special room offer was available and had to amend my reservation which was no problem. The offer code is 'BAR' but if you are a Momentum card holder and have reached 'Ascend' status this room may be free of charge. When I initially made the reservation for a room, there is a offer code that is displayed on the hotel reservation website that will help reduce the room cost. This hotel room stay was courtesy of the Ilani Casino and their frequent player program called Momentum. It’s something to do on a weekend but it feels like a very poor ripoff of Cochon 555. You are given a wine glass at the start and a wrist band tied to a credit card, you can purchase the very limited variety of food with the wrist band, you are given 10$ to start, anything over that gets charged to the card, two meatballs(about the size of golf balls) cost 8$. There were a lot of wine, cider and hard liquors to try, you get a punch card that limits how many things you try(both a good and bad thing), keeps people from over-imbibing but adults should know their limits and by giving punch cards it feels like they are cheaping out. Andrew Zimmern was the only one i knew by name, it was bites of cold food served to the audience(we tried steak with chimichurri and a fried bite with shrimp and sweet potatoes), supposed to be served hot. We came for the food and wine fest, we paid 50$ each for the tickets, there was a few bites of food available for free if you got into the audience for the chefs. The casino is really nice, decent restaurants.
