I had a horrible experience at this hotel. It stunk like cigarettes through the entire building, the customer service was horrible, I found a tick in my sheets, and they treated us like we were kids. After drinking 3 beers (which you are only allowed to purchase every half hour) I was told I was cut off and must leave the casino because I was intoxicated. I will never go back.

My wife and I stayed 3 nights at the end of April 2011 and like a reviewer before were taken aback by the amount of smoke we had to choke thru just to get to our non-smoking room ha. ha. the whole room smelled like a bar but the room was clean .when it was time for bed the bed was so lumpy I could not fall asleep and ended up sleeping on the chair in the room. My wife and I are reformed smokers and I don`t have a problem with with people smoking around me but this was way way too much. We will not be staying there again.

Nice newer hotel. We were pleasantly surprised that this gem of a casino is in Clinton, Iowa. Unlike the last reviewer, I did not notice smoke. My husband smoked in the casino and it did not bother me - it's all part of a drinking, gambling experience though. Anyhow, we are going again soon.

My wife and I stayed one night in the hotel and WISH WE HADN'T. First, let me say that both my wife and I are reformed smokers. The staff at the hotel was very gracious and professional. The room was very nice and well kept.

The Casino was wonderful, small, quiet and friendly. The problem was with the ventilation system in the hotel - it simply didn't work correctly. The smell of cigarette smoke was so bad, it was difficult to breathe at times. Clothes still packed in the suitcase smelled of cigarette smoke after only a couple of hours.

We had a no-smoking room but may as well have had a tent over the room, with all the smokers in the casino exhaling into that tent!! I woke up at 1:00 a.m.; sinus' bleeding, dry raspy throat and would have left except, where are you going to go at 1 a.m.? We were 2.5 hours from home. We toughed it out, ate breakfast (which was very good) and left. Unless you REALLY enjoy smelling like a stale pack of pre-smoked cigarettes, I would recommend finding a hotel room elsewhere, enjoy the casino, then leave!

The Wild Rose replaced the Mississippi Belle in Clinton, however, it is on the south-west side of town, not on the river. It's not a real large casino, but it does have many different slots. The buffet is quite good and there is a buy one, get one free for breakfast and lunch special for seniors on Mondays. Also, on Mondays, for seniors, there is $3.00 off dinner. Unfortunately, it has not been very lucky for me, but I have watched people win. It is nice and clean. They do not have a non-smoking section, but the ventilation is pretty good.
