| - This place is a gem for the price you pay.
-Yes, it's older
-Yes, The parking and valet can be a PIA
-Yes, the tv in the room is not user friendly
But I still enjoy this place every time.
The location is close to everything I enjoy most about Vegas. We did a cabana at the pool. This pool is vibrant, and more my speed as opposed to some of the other pool parties available in Vegas. The servers are all friendly. The music is good. One thing that does SUCK is the restrooms. There's even a line for mens (unheard of). I understand its by the pool, but I hated going to the restroom because you always feel like you're standing in a lake. The pool party itself was pretty good. I had a blast. Despite the many options available in Vegas, I always end up just going to the Flamingo.
The room (Go Room). Check the website for a hotel description. My thoughts: Fairly clean. A deep cleaning of the carpets in the room (and hallways for that matter) wouldn't hurt. The TV programming sucks. Obviously I didn't come to Vegas to watch TV, but even while in the room (in between outings) the channel lineup makes no sense. Also, I don't think they've ever had cords to plug in your Iphone for music. Knowing this, I brought my own speaker. The fridge (not available in the fab rooms) is clutch if you plan on bringing your own libations, and/or taking back leftovers for future consumption.
I would and will return. Do yourself a favor. Don't go in expecting the Four Seasons or motel 6. Accept the experience for what it is, and you'll enjoy it that much more.
