I recently stayed at the Bally's on the strip for one night. I got there about 10pm, and the front desk employee who checked me in had a friendly attitude.
The room was nice, clean, and comfortable. I spent part of the next morning at the pool before it got too hot for me and my hangover. There is a nice pool, which is quite large, and cocktail waitresses that are walking around taking drink orders. I won $500 playing on one of the machines, which made up for my $150 loss the night before at a different casino. I would stay there again if the price is still affordable.
