| - Since my first trip in July 2008, I've been to Vegas 11 different times now. TI will always be one of my favorites, mainly because this is the first hotel I stayed at while in Vegas.
CHECK-IN/FRONT DESK - 4 Stars
Overall the front desk staff is very friendly and the check-in process is quite quick. They have one large queue line that zig zags throughout the check-in/lobby area, which I like better than the individual lines for each front desk clerk that some hotels have. For some reason it makes things go quicker, and you won't see someone further back in the line next to you check-in before you.
HOTEL ROOM - 4 Stars
The rooms I've stayed in before seemed very clean, modern, warm and welcoming. The standard rooms also come with a decent sized LCD (plasma?) TV, safe, ironing board, desk, and a nice sitting chair by the window.
CASINO - 3 Stars
I do like to gamble at TI now and then, but for some reason the theme/decor of the casino itself does not call out to me. I preferably would like to play next door at The Mirage or down the street at Harrah's or Bally's. The casino staff is nice and friendly though, and always willing to help you brush up on your skills at the game, or learn the game if you're a new player.
DINING - 4 Stars
TI offers a wide assortment of dining. While some of them are not my favorite,I absolutely love the Coffee Shop and the Buffet. While the Coffee Shop may seem pricey, I guarantee you will not leave their hungry. They give you decent servings, especially the fried chicken meal and the spaghetti w/ meatballs meal. The Buffet at TI is also really good. Prices are par for it's neighbors (Mirage, Venetian, Caesars, etc), but personally I think the food quality and service are just a tad bit better than the rest.
BARS - 3 Stars
This is the area where TI needs to step it up a notch. Granted they have Gilley's, but there are also plenty of other chain country bars on the strip (such as Toby Kieth's at Harrah's). And while Senior Frogs has a great view of Sirens Cove and the Strip, I think something custom to TI would make the experience a whole lot better. Oddly, out of all the bar selections at TI, my favorite is Breeze Bar, smack dab in the middle of the casino. I would rate this one 5 stars on it's own. Great atmosphere, decent drink prices, friendly staff, and did I mention it's right in the middle of the casino? Perfect spot to people watch and have a few drinks.
SPORTS BOOK - 4 Stars
While not my favorite sports book in Vegas, TI has a pretty nice one. As always, the staff is very friendly, and willing to help you understand anything and everything about sports betting if you have questions (they just won't make recommendations on who to wager for/against). This SB is also pretty clean and the cocktail waitresses seem to come around more often than at other SB's in Vegas.
STAFF - 5 Stars
Overall, the staff in general (front desk, casino, restaurant/bars, housekeeping) are great and deserve 5 stars.
