couple of homeless around the property but no issues. Gas station 1 minute from the Casino with one of the best prices on gas. Less than 10 minutes driving from the casino we found a shopping center with Target and other big stores so location is good.

Check in was long and unpleasant. She complained about Tacoma to the point that I was uncomfortable. Other people were checked in and off to their rooms well before us. We were late for our dinner reservations. She needs training and hug.

Great Events Center, Nice Hotel, Limited Dining
First stay at EQC for a very, very good concert. The events center is big (1800 people) and we saw 2 big name bands that were superb. Acoustics were good, comfort average. The hotel was new, clean, very comfortable. The strange thing is the casino is small, much smaller than Tulalip, and they only have 2 real restaurants (Tulalip has 5), and because of the concert neither accepted any walk-up dining at any time after 5 PM. Whenever there is an event at the events center you must book dining days in advance, maybe weeks, or else you must plan on dining before 5 PM or getting a deli sandwich at their deli or the minimal things they have at the 3rd and only other dining option, which was a cafeteria with not very good sounding food. If you are going to the casino, it is way smaller than you would think. For dining or casino go to Tulalip, it is way, way better.

The hotel, casino and the restaurant in the casino were all very clean with a great atmosphere.. We were greeted upon arrival as stated by the hotel. The hotel room was nice & clean. However, the king bed was in very poor condition in that the mattress had a deep dip in the area that would normally support your back. We booked the room because we were attending a concert near by and then wanted to spend some time at the casino. So, we only slept in the bed for approximately 6 hours, (from midnight to 6am) and awoke with severe back pain from the mattress that has stayed with me throughout the day.
