| - We stayed at the Rio for a bachelorette party in August, and had a decent experience staying there. First, the not-so-great things about Rio: there's constant room renovations, and we were in the wing that needed some serious updates; this hotel is definitely showing its age. We waited an unnecessary amount for an ironing board. And because like most hotels in Las Vegas, Rio is a themed hotel, there were also some pretty Cheesy with a capital C things going around the hotel, like that random show they have where they threw beads. OK, actually that was pretty awesome.
Otherwise, Rio's an overall good choice for our party. You get what you pay for in the hotel rooms, in that it's a basic four-star accommodations. It's got a great rooftop club with amazing views of the Strip. The Chippendales perform here, and now that I've seen Jaymes and James compete on the Amazing Race, I kinda don't giggle in incredulity anymore. The pool area is huge and renting out a cabana is a great deal for a big group. It was definitely the perfect veg out experience, so very Vegas.
