Casino Del Sol Resort
The pool was amazing, rooms were clean, the casino was so unique and fun, and the staff were so friendly. Jada was always at the front desk and was so helpful and sweet!! We did notice the walls were pretty thin when the people next door got back to their room at 3am. Thankfully we were already awake ...
