I am not the target market for this hotel it is clearly a casino hotel as it says it in the name. I was staying here one night before going to see family nearby. The room was fine and felt clean. I stayed here with my young son and the restaurant is in the casino area which you can only enter if you are an adult.

The other reviews on this site are seriously off-base. Checking in was a breeze. I'm not sure why one of the other reviews said they had to navigate a gauntlet of smokers - the smokers are in a cordoned-off area away from the front door.
The staff was great! The room was large and decently appointed. It was about what you would expect for hotel in that price range.
As for complaints about the people - come on. You are in a casino in the middle of nowhere. This is not the Vegas strip, the people will be...interesting.
Over all it was a fun place to stay. Kristina at the bar was a delight and will be missed. Just upset we forgot to hit the gift shop on the way out for a koozie and a hat!
Thank you, Patrick!! We're thrilled to read your review and really appreciate your feedback :) Thank you for the team member shoutout, too! We hope you can visit us again soon!
Well, now we know. This is definitely not a place I'd go to again. We felt very unsafe. We were in town for my son's homecoming at a local school and thought this would be a good close-by option. My husband likes to gamble recreationally and we thought he'd enjoy the experience.
First the basics. I wish there was a better way to check in to the hotel than walking through a sea of smokers and gamblers. I felt like I ate a cigarette after walking through the haze. Check in was average. Once they learned my daughter was underage, we were told there were things we couldn't do. Couldn't eat at the restaurants, or get breakfast as they were both in the casino area. We could bring the food to our room if we wanted to. The room itself was clean, the only reason I gave two stars. The towels were tiny, made for children. I know, small detail.
Now onto the reasons I say it's unsafe. Both times we went to our room on the elevator we had uncomfortable encounters.
The first time up, a woman rode up with us. When we got off, the woman was following us. At first I thought she was going to her room. But then I stopped and pretended I was going into a room other than ours because she was walking very close to us in an unusual way. When I stopped I turned to look right at her. She then acted as if she was lost. "I can't read these (bleeping) signs. Then kept muttering and swearing, making her way back to the elevators. Once she left and was out of our line of sight, we went to our room.
The second encounter was much more concerning. My daughter and I got on the elevator and a man beelined it to get on with us. We had already pressed the floor that we were going on. He didn't push a button so I initially gave him the benefit of the doubt that he was on our floor. The entire ride up he was staring at my daughter. It was very odd. Upon reaching our floor, he held out his arm to let us off. I told him to go first and he wouldn't move. I had my daughter go ahead of me and followed her out. He then didn't get off, instead stayed on the elevator. The entire interaction is hard to explain, but it made us both feel like he had ulterior motives.
When we were leaving we noticed be aware of "human trafficking" signs plastered on the doors.
Needless to say we will never be going back to this hotel.
We're sorry that you had an uncomfortable experience here! We have forwarded this information to our Hotel Staff and Security Staff. We appreciate the feedback and if you can send your contact information to Info@Oxfordcasino.com, we can forward that along and have someone reach out! Thank you.
Terrible “hotel”. There is no hotel service at all. If you want breakfast or even cofffee you have go inside the casino (show your ID) walk thru gambling seniors and get coffee with fake creamer. Bath towels are the size of a hand towel. No help with luggage or parking. Always entering thru a bunch of folks smoking. Awful all round.
We're sorry your experience wasn't up to your expectations, sooxtravel. We appreciate you giving us a try. We do offer coffee machines in each room for your convenience! We will be sure to share your feedback with the hotel as well as with our Security department so they can address it if any smokers are doing so outside of designated areas.
We were going to freedom Maine . So we decided to stop at the casino. Very nice place. In the middle of nowhere. We stayed for about two hours. Had something to eat. The food was good. We didn’t have any luck gambling but we had fun . If I’m in the area again I will stop.
Francine, we are remiss that we didn't see this review sooner! We're happy you had a good time. Thank you so much for stopping in and giving us a try! We hope you can join us again soon :)
