Alright, I really loved the Monte Carlo until I stayed there this weekend. We stayed in the "Diamond Suite", room 170001. It's spacious but severely out dated. The first shower we went to take the shower drain clogged right away, the jetted spa tub was rusty and had particles floating in it. I called to have maintenance come up and unclog the shower. I had to do this 4 times within a 2 day period. The room location faces the back side where the freeways are, very noisy. You can hear people showering next door, flushing the toilet and coughing. The next night we decided to go eat at their buffet, um...YUCK! Stand clear even if you get a free buffet with your room purchase. The food was awful, cold and unappetizing. I wish someone would have warned us before we paid $54.00 for two people. The casino is very smokey and I felt like I was suffocating walking through. I won't be staying at this hotel again.
