Overall Video Poker
Boulder Station might be the "budget" property of the Station Casinos, but they certainly have the largest selection of video poker I have ever seen! Rows and rows of VP machines to match any budget and any level of volatility that you are looking for. They also have a huge selection of various paytables, including ones that are over 100% (which you won't get loyalty points for).
Parking is ample and not too far away from the casino. People are generally friendly, and if you are kind of a wallflower (like I am) you can easily find a VP machine in a corner to be by yourself, and be comfortable. Service was always great here, and I was served drinks on a fairly regular basis. Sure, the casino is smoky and obviously has years of smoke baked into it (so don't wear anything that requires dry cleaning), but is actually a fund atmosphere in that "old school Vegas" type of way.
If you are into Bingo, the bingo hall is also fun and the employees are super friendly! I played once and realized it wasn't my game, but I had a great time and everyone was patient with me, and explained what to do.
The rooms leave a lot to be desired, but they are clean. Think a very clean Motel 6 type of room, with a refrigerator :) Also, skip the pool, which is more like a "cement pond". It's basically a pool in the middle of a parking lot surrounded by four walls.
I love their food court here. They have several fast-food options from known brands (including Starbucks), as well as Mexican food, and a Michoacana-style Mexican dessert station with all the ice cream and goodies.
The bottom line is that most every casino has their fancy high-limit rooms and wants to be bigger/fancier than they are. But Boulder Station knows what it's working with, and caters toward that crowd. As a low-budget gambler, I appreciate that. VP players have options here, so it's a great choice for us!
