| - Although the Harrah's is considered an older hotel with no special glitz and glam compared to others on the strip, the location and price is what should most be considered when compared to others, and it's something that can't be beat.
My boyfriend and I booked a room last minute for EDC 2012 (woohoo EDC!!!), and when we got there, I was surprised at how efficient and friendly the workers were at check-in despite the crazy hell of a weekend Vegas had (EDC '12, Manny Pacqiao fight, on top of the regular tourists!). They were quick and friendly, so major props for that even though the line was CRAZY.
After we got our room keys from a very nice lady, we went to our room which ended up being in the Carnival Tower. When we got there, although the room was a bit on the smaller side (or are all Vegas rooms like this?), it was very clean and odor-free (it WAS a non-smoking room!). Awesome.
Every day that we were there, we always came back to a neat and tidy room.. the maintenance was on-point :)
And other than that, I have nothing much else to say. I didn't get to try any of the food joints so I can't comment on that. Gotta say though, I'd highly recommend the Harrah's if you're on a tight budget or don't feel like forking out crazy for a room that you'll just return to for a couple hours in Vegas (Btw, WHO SLEEPS in Vegas?!). Overall, very impressed and pleased with the hotel, from service to rooms, to everything in between! I WOULD stay here again, but I probably won't, just because I want to test out diff hotels ;)
p.s.The pool IS the only thumbsdown.. it's pretty small and not that great. Plus needs way more lounge chairs.. or, you can reserve a cushioned chair for $100-200? I forgot. But hah! Yah right! Better off taking that money to gamble or hit the strip clubs!
p.p.s. You can definitely search for coupons/deals online for this hotel. I did a quick search and it saved us $125!!!
