“If you wanted to have cocktails or hors d’oeuvre, we could have a bartender come up and take care of full bar service,” Askew said. For a fee, the casino will send a bartender to work the in-room bar. There’s a Wii, an XBox and a Playstation 3 with a constantly updated library of games, Askew said. “Since it hasn’t come to fruition yet, we’re waiting on that.” “We had a quote and came real close when we thought the Sonics were coming back to Seattle of having a specialty one with the ‘Return of the Sonics’ on it,” said Askew of the pool table’s cloth. In another part of the suite is a dartboard and a black-felt pool table, which is waxed, balanced and re-clothed every year. In one corner, an arcade-style Golden Tee game is set up. The 1,500-square-foot suite costs $2,500 a night, which includes a $500 food and beverage credit. “We obviously support the home team,” Askew said. The Players Suite where Oswalt stayed is built as a kind of mancave with American Leather couches, games and artwork of sports teams including autographed jerseys from teams like the Mariners to the Silvertips. “Therefore we have the five different suites.” “Rather than try to have one room that is the be all and end all to everyone, we came up with the idea to accommodate the needs and desires of the specific individual,” Askew said.

I would live in them forever if they would let me.”Įach of the rooms are themed differently, designed and built to satisfy varying tastes, Askew said. “They’re beautiful,” said Tika Armendariz, who works at the concierge desk at the hotel. So these suites are tops in the county and among the best in the state. The suites are the best of the best of the 372-room resort, a property rated four diamonds by AAA and four stars from Forbes.Īnd two years ago, the Washington Lodging Association voted the Tulalip Resort Casino outstanding property of the year for the state, the first time that honor was given to a tribal property.

The entertainer was put up in the Players Suite, one of five specialty suites on the resort’s 12th floor.

What Oswalt didn’t embellish, or at least not much, was the luxuriousness of his suite. “Comedians, it all becomes a joke to them,” Askew said Tulalip Resort Casino general manager Samuel Askew said Oswalt “took some poetic license with his pay.” “I entered a hotel room that - and I’m not exaggerating - was bigger than any house or apartment that I’ve ever lived in my life,” Oswalt said in the show.
