 | 	- I had to work at a trade show at the Las Vegas convention center. I don't know how the booth space was allocated, but I'd say we got pretty good space, although I don't think our booth people bought wi-fi, so they had to use my 4G.
The staff there was very passive, not like the overly aggressive staff at the Los Angeles Convention Center, so that's a good thing. There were also way more accessible restrooms that we could go to, some of them with ample space, but the main one in the lobby was always overcrowded so we went to one upstairs when it was. There were also some water fountains so we didn't get dehydrated. The same could not be said inside the convention hall since almost all the popular booths had bottled water and there were no visible water fountains.
The food at the food court is really expensive (seemed kind of high even for convention center food) and one of the days there was a massive delay while I waited for the one item I could eat without allergic reactions to come out. No substitutions, according to their sign. The way it worked was that one waited for the item to come out, picked it up, and walked over to the cashier to pay. Due to the amount of time waiting for the specific dish we just ate some of it while we waited.
There was insufficient parking space in the closer parking lots. While it would not be a problem if they had a shuttle of some kind from the parking lot to the convention center, my boss had a leg injury of some kind and he had to hobble over to the main convention hall with no assistance (he walks about 1/3 of the speed of the rest of us), so for some show days he asked us to drop him off in front of the convention hall. It was also a bit of a problem when I had to carry equipment from the parking lot over, and it was very hot, too. Parking was $10 per day.
Aside from the food court problems I encountered I think it is a pretty good convention center.
There is a Pokémon GO gym outside too.
