Average Hotel on the strip: The Monte Carlo is a beautiful hotel, however inside it is just another hotel on the strip. The rooms are clean. The first room I had the bathroom light and alarm clock did not work. When I asked to change my room for the second night at 9 am the next morning they said I would have to come back between 3-5 pm to get a room. So I was without a hotel room for over 6 hours. The check in lines can be long. The vallet wasn't to slow picking up your car, but the drop off lines are. The food at the pub and the cafe were pretty good, however the food at the buffett left us all a little sick to the stomach. The one thing I really did like about the hotel were the wave pool and lazy river. If you are looking for an average hotel on the strip, this is it. $$ - $$$
