I won't be back for a while.
I will agree that most things are overpriced, but if they intend to constantly lure peole to the area, then they had better start giving the public more incentives ie.. cheaper hotel rooms. I know another thing that has hurt the casino is that you can no longer smoke and you can in the Seneca casino in NF New York. Now I know the numbers are down, but living here I would never suggest that it is dead here, especially on a weekend. I have noticed that it seems to be alot busier in August than it was in July, but that's only my perspective. I think it is safe to say that because of the Falls themselves, this city will never "not" have people come too visit, it just might not be the same after the passport law comes into affect.
