This should be cheaper. For how long the ride lasts, and especially if you are local.
As others have stated, you wont get a good view of anything until you are at the highest point of the ride. Even then, the view is only okay because of the location of the wheel.
There were hard crappy plastic bench like seats to sit on. They got the job done, but something better or different would have been preferred.
On the plus side, the pod was climate controlled with nice A/C. There was decent music playing in the background. There were facts and other engaging info being displayed on the television monitors in the pod. The best view to be had was a the top of the ride and it was decent.
I will come back to enjoy it at night, but after that, I dont see any need to return. This seems to be another gimmicky attraction, especially if you are a local. Something to enjoy a couple of times and pass by there after as another landmark on the Strip.
