| - The Pros:
The rooms were extremely nice: spacious with great, open floor plans (including a kitchen); bathrooms with a waterfall shower, which I had no idea what I was missing out on until now. I honestly don't know how I've lived without one haha. They also have a jacuzzi tub with very powerful jets that shot out all over the bathroom causing my parents to temporarily become house keepers as they cleaned up all the water. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the room had three televisions: one was located in the "bedroom" area, one in the "living room" area and one in the bathroom (note that those areas are in quotes because the way the room was laid out the bedroom and living room were adjacent but it was an open floor plan so there's no physical barriers or dividers between the two rooms). The living room has a really nice l-shaped sofa and an extra chair with a coffee table and side table.
The staff was incredibly friendly as well as the other guests in the hotel. They made every attempt to accommodate our requests and were helpful in suggesting places around the area to checkout.
The location is convenient although you're not in the center of the action. I was okay with this though, because the strip is literally less than a 5 minute drive and being secluded away from all the lights, blaring horns, screaming people and other activity was great for getting a good night's rest unless you want flashbacks to your college housing days.
The Cons:
The carpeting in the living area was awkward. It's a weird dark brown color that's awkwardly placed and "dips down" into the floor and in my case, the carpet was not cleaned before my check-in (which on dark brown it showed everything).
The cable and Wi-Fi here are terrible. I work in technology so I was having withdrawals due to the fact that I could not get AT&T coverage here at all. My phone and tablet would bounce between 1 bar of LTE, 2-3 bars of 4G or "No Service" / "Searching." This means I had to heavily rely on the WiFi at the hotel which was free with an asterisk (it is Vegas after all). You get 1MB for 1 device and 5MB is $6.99. The television cable did not work 3/4 of the time. You'd be watching something and it would start to cut in and out to the point where it was not watchable at all because it would cut out for long periods at a time.
The people who came up with the room service charges should go to jail for extortion. At first glance, the prices on the room service menu don't look all that bad - yes, there's a markup, but yes you're in Vegas. Then you read the small print and it states that all orders carry a $5 delivery fee AND 19% gratuity. So for instance, a $6 cup of tea (yes it really was $6 and hell no I didn't order one) would end up actually being $13.09. That would even make Starbucks blush with embarrassment.
