I am going to be in Tunica around the middle of January and had a question for people who have been there before. I have the option of staying at the Roadhouse or the Horseshoe for the same price. The room at the Roadhouse is about 25% bigger since it is a suite. Thoughts?

Havent stayed at Roadhouse but HS rooms are very nice if not in the motel part. They have a few crap rooms. When it was the Sheridan they did have some hot tub suites though, but have remodeled since then.

If you want a whirlpool tub in your room, Roadhouse. If not, Horseshoe. I've never stayed at HS though because my g/f likes the tub, but I'd assume the HS room is a bit nicer than Roadhouse, and definitely closer to the main action.

It amazes me that people use tubs in a hotel. I even wear water shoes in the showers.

Tubs are not my thing, can't imagine they are cleaned properly. Just found a room at The Fitz for just over half the price of HS and Roadhouse, probably stay there.

Thanks GWAE!
Now I have to add the showers and tubs to my list of concerns, things I really had ignored.
I had the toilet seat worries, the bedspread/comforter worries, the door handle worries, etc.
Soon I'll be reduced to hiding in my basement...... ;-)

And yes, I already always carry my own pillow.....

Get a ziplock baggie. Get Clorox wipes, those that come in a roll inside a canister. Put 1/2 dozen wipes in a baggie, seal well, put it inside your baggage or car.

Check in to hotel room. Take baggie to bathroom. Wipe door handle, toilet seat and handle, sink basin and handles, tub/shower enclosure and handles. 5 minutes work. Relax the rest of your stay; you've already met all the germs you'll encounter from there on out.

Don't forget the remote control. They say it is the dirtiest thing in a room.

That's probably even more true of the hotels with, "In-Room Movies."
