In this guide
Who can reserve and check in
The property requires the person who reserves and checks in to be 21 years of age or older. The name on the booking and the credit card used at check-in must match the guest who checks in.
A valid, government-issued photo ID is required at check-in for all guests, and the hotel collects a credit card deposit at arrival (a $200 deposit is due at check-in per the hotel's policy).
- Minimum age to reserve/check in: 21 years
- Photo ID required for underage guests present at check-in
- $200 credit card deposit due at check-in (per hotel policy)

| ID at check-in | Valid government-issued photo ID required |
| Deposit | $200 credit card deposit at check-in |
Children and family stays
Children of all ages can stay at the hotel when accompanied by a parent or guardian, and several booking sites and the hotel's materials indicate children stay free when sharing a room with an adult. The 21+ rule applies to who may reserve and check in, not to whether children are allowed in rooms.
The property markets itself primarily to adults, couples, and groups — that influences areas such as the casino, pool, nightlife and event programming.
- Children may share a room with a parent/guardian
- Hotel positioned as adult-focused; family facilities are limited compared with family resorts
- Any guest under 18 must be accompanied by someone 21 or older in restricted areas (pool, casino)
