Stayed here with my younger sister and parents earlier this week and was not overly impressed, especially compared to other Embassy stays in my past
Here are some highlights (and lowlights) from my 3 day stay here:
-- Fold out bed was more uncomfortable than most (as older brother, I was the one relegated to the fold out bed)
-- No fan or vent in the bathroom + 4 occupants = steamy, stinky mess
-- Omelets made to order were amazing; the fresh fruit at brunch was discolored and gross looking.
-- Happy hour was a godsend (free beer, nachos, popcorn), only there was nowhere near enough seating -- so be sure to get there right at 5:30 -- Not close enough to the Strip or Monorail for it to be convenient.
-- The sarcastically named town of "Paradise" has some fairly sketchy looking characters and very little to do
-- The lobby has a kinda cool fountain that reminded me of a poor man's Bellagio water show
-- Furniture, wallpaper, and bathroom all looked a bit outdated -- could use a major facelift
While we didn't spend a ton of time in the hotel, I'll have my mom splurge a few extra bucks to stay on the Strip.
