The categories every entry is read through: arrival, rooms, dining, public space, surroundings
Every property in this guide is described through the same five categories: arrival, rooms, dining, public space and surroundings. The order is fixed on purpose. It mirrors how a guest actually meets a building — from the approach road to the view beyond the grounds.
Arrival covers the approach, the entrance and the first public room. Rooms cover the accommodation type and how lodging sits relative to gaming and resort floors. Dining notes that meals exist as part of the property without naming outlets or menus. Public space covers lobbies, gaming floors and gathering areas as one continuous campus. Surroundings place the site in its city, shoreline or countryside.
Using the same frame for every entry keeps comparison honest. A five-star waterfront resort and a three-star prairie hotel are not ranked against each other. They are described with the same vocabulary so the reader can judge fit without marketing noise.
