Went to the casino last weekend with a buddy to play poker! the poker room is the nicest part of the casino...the slots were the tightest I HAVE EVER seen...no one winning, the table games were busy, but no one winning there either.

The hotel is not finished yet...so it is not a resort, nor do they comp rooms...we stayed nearby...at $129 a night...no comps, we dropped a few thousand there...and the food buffet was too high priced $22.95, for what? We went to Cracker Barrel  for better food.

This casino is one of the worst pay-out casinos in America...save your time and money and go elsewhere for gaming fun!

Since the start of all the big giveaways and the new hotel, the slots payback is very, very terrible.

My wife and I went on a weekend during the early afternoon with around a grand and had terrible luck. We understand it is a gamble and some say "a one armed  bandit" but since the new hotel addition and all the glamour that is what you're paying for.

It seems now they can not afford to pay people anything. It seems they do not understand even if they let you win a little most will give it back. After this trip we made a promise not to return I suggest you go to either Pa. or Delaware casinos and stay clear of the ' high glamour ' at Charles Town (takes your money) slots.......

Unfortunately I have been a regular at Charlestown for the past 3 years. The first year I did alright, but with all the giveaways with the cars I have seen a decline in the payouts with the slots.

When you go you want to stay more than a couple of hours. You would think that 25 cent machines would give a little back. The Spam machine is fun, but just silly because you're not going to win and the nickel machines are the biggest scams ever.  If I do see a wiinner it's the 5 dollar machines.

Food is a little better than average - could be better. My biggest complaint is the smoke!!!! It never used to bother me, but for some reason at this casino it is horrendous! And I have to say that some of the patrons there are unbelievably rude.

Staff is nice, bartenders are real good and friendly. I am glad I am a black card holder though - I almost feel guilty about cutting in the front of the line-- but then I don't when a machine kicks my butt. They should hire more people.

Four of us, ages late 70's and an 88 yr. old, traveled by bus from Columbus, Oh to Wheeling with the idea of a fun time away from home. We have been there many times before. We were greeted by the Wheeling Casino greeter on the bus advising us that we would receive a $5.00 food coupon, (Buffet $5.95 for Monday) and that $20.00 (usually $15.00 given in cash) would be credited to our Player's card and we would need a PIN #, which we gave @ the Player's Card window. We were given an instruction card to use at the slot machines. No info given as to where we put in the PIN #, however I finally found it and then could not get it to work, so an employee came to help and then $20.00 was entered to be used in place of my cash.

Found out that you could not cash out and move to another machine if you were not having any luck. Any winnings could be cashed out but not the money that Wheeling gave you. All of the people in my party had to be helped in entering the PIN # and the amount of money to use in the machine. One lady forgot to use $10.00 and so that was lost as it cannot be carried to another day just like the coupons that come in the brochures. The buffet line was so long that we were over an hour and half getting into the buffet.

The food in the buffet is not what it used to be. The best buffet I have ever had has been @ the Argosy (now the Hollywood). Food good and lots of choices. The wait in the Player's card line was over a half hour. All of these changes took all of the enjoyment out of our day "away". Will we go back, that is debatable. Slots do not pay well, a few credits help to keep you playing, very few and far between. Ohio government officials wake up and get some casinos in OHIO. You need our money and we will find some place to gamble.

Not a fun place to game. Fear and intimidation is the management technique toward both employees and patrons. Rank and file employees are friendly and courteous but are obviously uncomfortable.

A case I witnessed was a patron who was accused of being paid $1,500 on a "no bet" which was in fact a good bet. They were told that they had to pay it back or leave. They paid it and were told to leave anyway. OBSCENE.

Greed is the driving force behind this casino. They use any idea they may concoct to underpay their employees and reduce both benefits and payroll. I would NEVER PLAY here. Eat maybe, but not play.

My husband and I have been coming to CT for about 5 years. We were bringing home some money. Now that the new garage has been built, the new hotel has been built, no payoffs coming our way. My husband won $10,000 in October, 2005, nothing worth bragging about since.

The "black card" is very unfair to those of us that can't afford to come every week and spend money. I spend MONEY at CT, too, why can't I get the same service, without someone breaking in line? They, also, have a certain place to park. My husband is handicapped, there might be an open spot where the black card holders park, I can't park there so I can get his wheelchair off the ramp. I have to keep looking for a handicapped spot big enough to get the wheelchair off the ramp. Also, does security check these handicapped spots?

There are a lot of people parking in these spots that don't have handicapped license plates showing or the placard. I have seen people park in these spots and run into the casiino.

I have been to Delaware Park Slots, this is a very nice casino and the payoff is fair. Will be a while before we go back to CT . It's a 3 hour drive from my home to CT.
