Note that if you visit the cafe, you essentially exit the gaming floor, and to return you have to go through screening again. The only downside is that they do not have any food option aside from the little cafe at the entrance, which basically serves hot dogs and hamburgers, nachos, chips and sodas. You cannot walk around with your drink and have your mask off- you must be seated.
Masks are required unless you are actively drinking or smoking, and this is enforced. Sanitizing wipes were everywhere, and I saw staff cleaning games and surfaces regularly. Spacing was clearly indicated at table games, and every other slot machine was turned off so you could be distanced from other players. Given that entertainment is few and far between during COVID, I was very impressed with the steps they have taken to keep patrons safe and still keep their staff working. We walked from the Doubletree, and it was a nice walk-felt safe.
