We arrived early for the wedding and I needed to check on something for a customer on a Friday. I'm an IT guy with a lot of customers and occasionally need to remote into their computers to fix something. My daughter and I were in town for my niece's wedding and didn't want to deal with the crowds on the strip, so we decided to stay at the Aliante. Save yourself any trouble and play Santa Fe Station in the North Las Vegas/northwest Las Vegas area.If you are the type of person who has a flip phone and no need for fast internet and don't mind sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress, then this is the place for you. Now, my poor, elderly mother was disappointment on Christmas and cheated out of winnings issued to her by this casino. I don't know about you, but when a casino gives you three winning tickets issued from their system, they had better honor them and absorb the mistake that their system made. The manager Josh, offered no apology, just a statement that she 'was already paid $500 that she was 'NOT ENTITLED TOO' and walked away with the tickets in hand. The cashiers that were working with my mother even commented that the casino, the place of their employment SHOULD honor her winnings as it was thoer problem and she was issued the tickets fair and square. We tried to reason with him and explain that she was issued those tickets by the casino, however he stated that 'he has the final say' and the tickets would not be honored. The cashier called the manager of the Rewards Center (Josh) to get authorization to pay the money out, and the manager promptly took the winning tickets from my mother and told her that he would not honor her winning tickets due to a glitch in their system. She proceeded back to the cashier to collect her winnings, and my mother was so elated that she had won this money that she broke out in tears at the cashier counter. Then she read the other two tickets for $2,500 and $1,000 and noticed that on the bottom of the tickets, she was indeed the lucky winner of both. My mother took the ticket for $500 to the cashier and cashed it in with no problems. The instructions on the tickets that printed out from the kiosk stated to 'see cashier to redeem' and 'the ticket expires on December 30th, 2013'. My elderly mother swiped her players card and received three tickets from the kiosk one for $500 cash, one for $2,500 tab pull and one for $1,000 tab pull. On Christmas day, my family and I went to the casino to swipe our players club card since the casino had a holiday promotion. I live in Aliante and frequent this establishment often. DO NOT PLAY AT THIS CASINO, THEY DO NOT HONOR WINNINGS!!!!
