GVR is a nice place to stay. I will stay there again. I would warn again upgrading your room to a suite though. It's definitely not worth the cost. We were offered an upgrade with a balcony. We were told we would have views of The Strip and views of the pool. We decided to upgrade. The room was nice, but it was not all that much better than their regular room. The balcony was very nice. The balcony had a 4-person table and chairs set, and two very comfy lounge chairs. This was nice. However, there was absolutely no view of The Strip or the pool. The balcony suites are on the first floor!!!!! How could the check-in girl not know this? I don't know. We were definitely disappointed that there was no view.
