The Winnebago Tribe has opened a non-smoking room at its casino in Iowa.

According to news reports, the WinnaVegas Casino is the first gaming facility in the state with a non-smoking room. Marketing director Travis Morgan said the room's already been a hit after just one week.

"It’s just an option that you have now at WinnaVegas that we hope is going to bring a core group of people to us because we’re the only ones that have something like this," Morgan told Radio Iowa.

The casino is located on the Iowa portion of the tribe's reservation.
