| - We went to Vegas in July and we stayed at the Monte Carlo. I thought since we're staying during the weekdays and not going to be in Vegas for the weekend, that it's not going to be busy. My friends always tell me that July is the hottest month to go to Vegas and many people won't be there, but when we check in. The lady at the counter said they were all booked up so if we wanted to upgrade to a better room, we couldn't. Plus, the lady charged us for a resort fee. And the resort fee is basically wired internet, NOT even wireless and water. (-1star)
The room was simple; two queen beds, a desk and TV. No mini refrigerator or microwave. At least we had a view of the pool. The room was clean though, with fresh linen and bedding. Coming up to the room I noticed the air quality of the hotel (elevator, the hallway) and casino was NOT good, it was really warm, it seems like the A/C wasn't on or working properly. We left our room at 60C during our stay.
The pools were great. They have a couple different types of pools: Wave pool, lazy pool & the regular pool. The only thing was that the pool area closed at 7pm. I wanted to go to the pool at night when it's still hot outside, but couldn't. (-1 star)
Monte Carlo has a monorail that goes to Bellagio, plus a walkway that connected to Aria. The monorail was nice b/c we didn't have to walk all the way up the strip. Overall, our stay was good for the price we have paid.
