I've never stayed off the strip in my 10+ years of Vegas vacationing. However when something is free I find it really hard to pass up. Such an opportunity arose when I was offered a free stay here at Red Rock Casino through my brothers credit card promotion.
The hotel is really clean. That's the first thing I noticed. Nothing was out of place. The room was nice as well. It's not the Venetian but it's not Planet Hollywood either if you get my drift. The pool here is pretty nice. Half naked girls and families all cohabiting in peace.
The best feature of this place, for me anyway, is the location in proximity to Red Rock Canyon. Get in an early hike before everyone else wakes up!
