| - For all you Worldmark timeshare owners, this one's for you (well, as well as this one: http://www.yelp.com/biz/worldmark-las-vegas#hrid:Dls2X0IvRb-rQebnK8yK_Q)...
This facility near the corner of Spencer and Flamingo is small, more unto an apartment complex than a full fledged resort. No bells, no whistles.
Amenities for the complex include a pool/spa, a laughable workout room, a pitiable rec room, and a vending machine. But there is an Albertson's down the street (Flamingo) to pick up groceries, and the kitchen in the room is fairly equipped; fridge, stove, microwave, pots, pans, plates, glassware, etc.
They do provide a shuttle service that makes two stops; MGM and Harrah's every hour on the half-hour mark until 1:00 AM.
Of the two shuttle driver's I chatted it up with, both were cool guys. Sonny in particular was awesome. He's an older guy, born and raised in Hawaii, so his demeanor and conversation was so laid back and fun; very "talk story".
The room we stayed in was a two bedroom apartment, with 2 bathrooms, kitchen, smallish patio, living room, and a washer/dryer combo. Not lavishly furnished by any measure, but functional enough to sleep and sustain about 6-ish people comfortably... All in all, there was the King (master), Queen (Murphy in the living room), and the two twins (guest room), plus the couch and plenty of floor.
You'll also find two televisions, a stereo, dvd/vhs player, and a fireplace, if such things pique your interests...
So, if you plan on being in Vegas more than 3-4 days and expect to need the comforts of a home (like cooking, laundry, space), the Worldmark Spencer is a viable option...
From just almost anywhere on the strip, it was about a $13 cab fare to get back...

... OH, but the walls/floors were a little thin. I could hear some folks in another unit upstairs, um, doing something.
