| - The hotel room was clean (stayed in a 1-king-bed non-smoking). However, the room still faintly smelled of cigarette smoke, but in a hotel where smokers are allowed, what can you do. For my first room, I was told I would have a view of the pool - it did not (I was on the 5th floor). The front desk graciously allowed me to switch to a pool view on the 19th floor the next day (if you want a room with a good view, arrive between 12PM and 1PM and ask for a room with a view of the volcano right away!). Also, the hotel had recently switched to a satellite television network called "Tangerine" but the service was awful. The satellite connection kept getting interrupted and I could not watch television in my first room. Other maintenance issues involved a cracked light switch for the left light over the bed in my first room (however, the light still turned on). In the 2nd room I stayed in, water started dripping around the overhead light over the bathroom tub in the middle of the night... as if the bathroom above me was flooded. The dripping stopped after a 10 minutes. However, the rooms, overall, were clean and comfortable.
The casino floor: I did not like that cigarette smoking was allowed on the casino floor. Its not nice to look at, at all. You can smell the smoke but, thankfully, you cannot see any smoke clouds. The hotel ventilation system is set up to keep smoke clouds out of the air.
In the end, I did enjoy my stay!
