As a member of their "Elite Club", I have been coming to the Sun since it first opened. It used to be a fun place to come and drop a few dollars in the slots and have a good time. However, over the last several months I walk in with my 100 dollars and ten minutes later I am walking out broke.

You can't even get a decent amount of play out of the machines. My last trip I played a Playboy penny slot machine, mid range bet (.75 cents) and hit the bonus. While in bonus mode I won a total of 50 free games, the maximum allowed by the machine. I counted 35 straight spins without a single winning line. Not one!!! When the bonus was finished I had won a total of $40.00. This wouldnt be so bad if I wasnt already into the machine for $60.00. I decided to continue to play the machine and after playing back $20.00 more without a single winning line or bonus I left. I have found this to be the norm when playing there anymore. You have little chance of hitting bonus rounds on the machines and when you do hit them, they pay out horribly. Outside of the Atmosphere of the casino, there is little other reason to keep going there.

This place is the worst ever. You will have better luck playing dice in one of the local trailer parks. The place is loaded with all old people with walkers, wheelchairs and air tanks. Dont't forget to mention the old ass people smoking with air tanks. It's small and the Ruth's Chris Steakhouse is terribly overrated and priced.

The managers are cheap like used car salesmen and the waitress/waiters are useless. The place is packed with staff running around like chickens with their heads cut off. The steaks are drowned in butter and the sides suck. The mashed potatos are like eating milky potatos with garlic. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE TIME STOPPING HERE!!

The place is beautiful; the gaming floor is nicely designed. It is a tremendous improvement over the original two story venue. There is a circular walkway around the casino floor which houses various retail stores and the restaurants. The buffet I felt was fabulous for the price.

I was disappointed in the very bad payback percentages of the video poker machines. No 9/6 nor 9/5 Jacks/Better; very bad Deuces/Wild; terrible payoff on Pick'em Poker. i don't know about the high limit area. I only scanned the 25 cent machines in which one can also play 50 cents or $1.00.

The drink situation I found terrible. The only thing free is the coffee and soda. You must pay for your gambling drinks. The cocktail waitresses hound you for a drink; constantly asking if you wish one. If I didn't have to pay for one perhaps they could earn a gratuity.

The gaming atmosphere was pleasant but the video poker machines are terrible. I found a 5 cent triple play Deuces/Wild which I had no choice but to play. If only they would improve the poker payoffs, I might return otherwise it's ciao.

When the casino first opened the winnings were much better. My pay out percentage is down to about 35% compared to about 65% back about two years ago..and the comps!!! Can they spare the few dollars that they give you after dropping hundreds in the machines?

 The food court and the buffet is really going downhill, I even spoke personally with the food manager who 6 months ago said he was going to improve on it. The dessert place and Ice Cream Place are a rip off ...you're not getting your monies worth.

Last, but not least, they've increased the floor smoking area to 50%. When the floor is about 70% full the smoke is so bad that your eyes start to burn and worst is that your breathing secondhand smoke, if you're concerned about your health stay away. Sure they have a non-smoking area but the smoke drifts all over the entire floor area.

Overall, it's a beautiful facility, the help tries hard, but this casino management needs to get the operations back on track to where it was when it first opened its new addition in 2008. Until it does, I'll start going back to Atlantic City where the machines pay much better and they comp you very generously plus free meals, shows and free hotel rooms..A/C is worth the trip.

I never thought that the play at Mohegan Sun could get any worse, but it has. In the last 6 weeks I have seen the mohegan sun decline in not only their slot play, but in every way imaginable. This casino is in serious trouble if they continue to operate the way they are. Here are some of the main problems I have found with this casino:

1. Slot play. I thought it was bad before, but now it has become just plain insulting to the player. You are lucky if you are able to get a 30% payout on any machine that you play, I know, I was keeping track. On a Playboy machine I was playing I put 40 dollars into it and won exactly 4 dollars back, and that was with a bonus spin. Bonus spins are rare on any machine you play and when you do hit a bonus the payout is horrible. I played a Red Hot Jackpot machine and hit the bonus rounds twice in 40 dollors worth of play. Both bonus rounds paid an average of seven dollars, which it immediately took back without a single winning line in between. If I could have rated the slot play any lower, it would have been in the negative numbers.

2. Atmosphere: There is a lack of friendliness and personality, the employees wander around like zombies on the floor looking like they would rather be somewhere else. And I am sure they have heard alot of complaining from the patrons, so I am sure they would rather be somewhere else, refer to line 1 as to why people are complaining. I will say however that the employees in the Valet department are very friendly and do try to make people feel welcome when they arrive.

3. Machine upkeep: Wow! What is wrong with the people running this place??? Half the card readers dont work most of the time, so you will lose ALOT of comps if you are not watching the readers carefully. I couldnt believe how many of their machines have broken buttons, cracked glass, and burned out lights. One machine I know of in particular has had a broken glass on it for at least the last 4 months and STILL hasnt been repaired. Here's a tip for the management: FIX YOUR BROKEN EQUIPMENT!

4. Food: Greaseburgers from hell, Hotdogs that are better suited to a dog's rubber chew toy, or an overpriced steakhouse no one can afford to go to. The Buffet is not bad, just a little on the bland side. The ice cream place, is good if you can get someone to come out from their back room to actually serve you.

As you may have noticed, I graded some of the categories (1). That is because I could not score it a zero. Most especially the blackjack machines. I would respect a person who placed a gun in my ribs and robbed me of my money more than these machines.

These machines are...simply stated "fixed." You are playing a computer. If you draw a 20, dealer will mysteriously draw 21. Especially if a large bet has been placed. A word to the wise. Stay away from all PA casinos until they allow live card games. That way the casino cheat advantage will vanish.

If you are a video poker player, this casino is not for you. They have very few video poker machines and the denominations start at $.25. They need more VP machines.

The casino is beautiful and the numerous restruants are okay. It's easy to lose your money very quickly, it seems the payouts are low compared to other casinos.

Before the expansion i had very little luck. Now, withe the expansion my luck is better.

My money will last a little longer. This place in the last 5 months is far better than Mt. Airy. Take my word for it, go here instead of there.

New expansion opened on July 17, 2008. We've been visiting often since original opening in 2006, and when this new casino opened you could leave with some money for the first 3 weeks. Now they've tightened back up and again, you get no play time on your money.

My boyfriend occasionally hits for a few hundred on dollar machines, but not often enough to even out the times when he does NOT. I gave up on quarter machines, they're impossible to hit. You can play pennies for a bit longer, but sometimes you think they 'shut off' all the bonus rounds.

Otherwise the place is really nicely decorated, good food court area, and a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse but you shouldn't go in there unless you have $175 for dinner for two.

It's sad that we have 2 casinos here now within a 45 minute drive of each other (Mt. Airy is close) yet we have to fly out to Vegas next month to have fun. Jeesh.
