In short, DO NOT go to this casino to gamble. Shame on them for being so cheap and stingy. You have to pay with either cash or a credit card, and the food is barely edible. Cashout tickets and vouchers expire after only 30 days (most casinos give you 180 days to cash out your tickets), but Seminole Hard Rock only gives you 30 days to cash them out, there are no self serve soda stations anywhere, your comp points expire and/or get reduced almost immediately if you don't use them right away, the smoking is way out of control, the food court in the main part of the casino no longer accepts comp points to buy food. No drinks with alcohol that waitresses serve you while you play are free ever.
You have to pay for ALL alcoholic drinks. Slot machines are so tight, it is impossible to win any money at all.
If you like to play Blackjack like I do (Platinum/Diamond member at Harrah’s/Ceasar’s) this is not a good place. The band had to reschedule at last minute but no biggie and came anyway.
Not only has this casino been voted the worst paying casino outside of Las Vegas, this place is so freakin' cheap. Flew down to the Hard Rock Tampa Hotel and Casino to see a concert.
