MONROE, LA, March 31, 2008. InterMountain Management, LLC announced today the opening of the 100-room Courtyard by Marriott in Carson City, Nevada. Located at 3870 South Carson Street, the Courtyard Carson City will operate as a Marriott franchise, owned by Carson Gaming Hotels, L.L.C. a subsidiary of Carson Gaming, L.L.C. The hotel will be managed by InterMountain Management, LLC of Monroe, Louisiana. The Courtyard by Marriott is the first Marriott hotel in the Carson City area.

"We really have to thank the community of Carson City for their support of this hotel," said Cathy Piechowski, general manager of the hotel. "The staff is ready to provide outstanding hospitality, and we are very excited to serve our guests."

"Opening the Carson City Courtyard by Marriott is the final exciting piece of our $45 million master-planned expansion of Casino Fandango," said Garry Goett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Carson Gaming, L.L.C. "Bringing in one of the world's most recognizable hotel brands creates a major asset not only for our casino but for Carson City as well. We now can offer our guests top quality hotel accommodations which makes Casino Fandango an attractive tourist and meetings destination." The new Courtyard by Marriott is a key component of Casino Fandango's entertainment campus expansion which includes the new Ti Amo Italian Grille (September 2007), an 18,000 sq. ft. casino expansion (December 2007) and a 41,000 sq. ft. Galaxy 10 Movie Theater (August 2007).

"We envisioned all along that we would create a destination that Carson City will be proud of - a place where our casino guests, business travelers, legislators, snowbirds, and tourists will find only the best accommodations and services," Goett added.

Located in the heart of the Carson Valley, adjacent to Fandango Casino, six miles from the Carson City Airport and 30 miles from the Reno/Tahoe International Airport, the Courtyard Carson City offers guests convenient access to the Nevada State Capitol, the Kit Carson Trail, the Nevada State Railroad Museum, and a variety of restaurants and other attractions.

"At Courtyard, we research and test our designs to provide for comfort and functionality," said Tim Sheldon, senior vice president, brand management, Marriott International. "We've become America's leading select-service hotel brand by listening to our customers and giving them what they want at a rate below traditional full-service hotels."

Meeting the evolving needs of the traveler, Courtyard has redesigned its public space. The new concept includes, a business library featuring individual workstations with high-speed data ports with ergonomic chairs, free high speed Internet access; a pantry-style, 24-hour "grab and go" food and beverage area called "The Market," and a lounge area where guests can work, meet and dine in a relaxing setting.
