We asked if they had a flashlight so we could at least maneuver around of room without getting injured tripping over furniture. We were told by the front desk and a maintenance man that it was not their problem. We understand they were not responsible for what happened due to the storm, but rather the lack of concern for our safety. This seemed rather weird to us as the casino, the elevators, lobby area and the hallways on our floor all had power. We were advised that a storm had moved through the area while we were in the casino and caused a tree to fall on some power lines. Upon entering our room none of the lights would turn on. We were very tired and decide to go to our room and just relax and watch TV before going to bed. We went to the casino and many of the slots didnt work or could not read the card we had to use to get the free $5 to play. Oh and they did give us $5 dollars each in free play in the casino. The only constellation to this whole meal experience was our waiter. The ice cream machine only had chocolate and strawberry flavors. My husband opted for the cherry cobbler and was going to put vanilla ice cream on it. I had held out some hope for the desserts. The vegetables seemed to all have been frozen or canned. I tried the medium cooked steak which apparently has been sitting out on a warming grill for quite some time. The lobster bisque was more of can tomatoe soup ground up pieces of what I would hope was lobster. He tried the vegetable soup looked like it was made from whatever was being thrown out off the buffet and yesterdays roast beef. I am more adventurous of trying things but my husband is not. After paying over $52.00 for the both of us and seeing what was on the buffet line we knew it was a mistake. We had 2 choices, 1) a buffet which was featuring steak that day, or 2) a place which seemed to serve what I like to refer to as 'sports bar' type of food with a daily special of roast beef. We took a shower (the shower head was loose so we had to carefully move it to position it for us) and put on fresh clothes and headed down for dinner. Now understand we have been driving for 16 hours and were exhausted and hungry. Our room was in the area being renovated. Ok we understand that things have to be updated from time to time. We proceeded to our room and noticed a sign by the elevator that said pardon our dust. However when we reach the front desk we had to wait as she was busy with the gift shop area register. Upon arriving the Valet was friendly and brought us a luggage cart. I had called to make sure they had a room available.

Heading home we decided to stay in the Vicksburg area after driving all week from Texas to Virginia and back.
