| - I really don't know how I feel about SLS Hotel and Casino. Part of me loves them because they provided such great hospitality for my boyfriend and I. But then again...like what some reviews have noted, SLS is having some identity issues here. Long gone are hotels themed after Italy, Paris, Greek, or even Egyptian. But SLS....it's lost and confused.
They try to be modern and "in' like the Aria and Cosmopolitan....but they didn't quite succeed.
**FRONT DESK: Front desk lobby was nothing to boast about. Actually...it was so low-key dark and hidden, I wouldn't be surprised if most people walk right past it. It's like they're embarrassed with their hotel. The front desk is almost the FIRST area tourists arrive to. Make the front desk area lively, make it grand and fancy!!
**CASINO: slow and dark. I don't get why some casinos make their casino so dark. Do you want your guest to get sluggish and sleepy!? Slot machines were tight as hell but blackjack tables were pretty good with a $10 minimum.
**ROOMS: there are many different types of rooms. I went online to look at the room types and were kinda overwhelmed. There's the STORY TOWER which looked like something you will see in a NY boutique hotel. The rooms looked super small!!!!! The WORLD TOWER is a bit bigger and I would say that's your less than average hotel room. Best tower, to me, to stay at is the LUX TOWER. Everything was modern. The layout was cleverly done. Dual sinks, dual-headed shower stall with one that's overhead. (hope thats making sense). Towels were fully stocked and clean. They provided robes and slippers. Beds were super comfy.
****NOTE****: some of you will love it, some will hate it, but there's a ton of mirrors around the room. Even one above the bed!!!!!!! Wow ;) I personally enjoyed it.
Restaurants and nightlife seems to be the only positive factors about this hotel that's keeping it alive.
