| - Arrived here late one Thursday night. Walked through a nice, big clean casino. Plenty of the penny slots with the mini games for those who don't like to lose their shirt gambling, but would like a steady flow of free alcohol. The Sportsbook is nice, plenty of screens, though I do wish the seating was more comfortable.
Got to the room. Nothing impressive, but still clean. Beds feel like typical motel beds. I guess i'm used to the awesome Heavenly beds from the Westin chain of hotels. Nice bathroom with the water closet.
The next morning we get to the pool. Gotta say this has to be the best pool area in Vegas. The wave pool is a nice change of pace from other bland Vegas pools. It's up to 7 feet deep, and the water doesn't look like its home to Swamp Thing. Every 2-3 minutes there is a good size wave. Not quite as many waves as I would prefer, and I would like to see bigger waves, but cool nonetheless.
Next to the wave pool is a lazy river. The Lazy river is in a shadier area, which is nice on those 100+ days where you need to get out of the sun. My advice is to grab a inner tube and a beer, ignore the 'No drinks in pool' rules (the lifeguards don't seem to care), and go for a cool, leisurely float around the river.
If you're looking for a hotel with a great spot to relax, why not stop by here?
