| - I spent eight nights in the Las Vegas Hotel for business. Because of how the reservations worked out, I was in one room in the North Tower for four nights and one room in the Central Tower for four nights. Those were totally different worlds.
IN GENERAL:
The front desk area was nice, but there was almost always a wait for check-in, key pick-up, etc. The front desk staff varied from nice to end-of-my-shift-grumpy. They have a "Go Green" program, which I thought was kinda cool. If you don't want your room cleaned, press the "Go Green" button on your phone and they'll slide a $10 hotel voucher under your door in the morning. Score! You can also check out from your room phone, which saved us some time.
Worst Paper Products Ever. I know hotels aren't going to buy lovely Cottonelle and Puffs Plus for their rooms, but I'm not sure which was worse: the medium-grade sand paper tissues or the toilet paper that disintegrated on contact. I never smelled cigarette smoke in the rooms, but every one of us got stuffed up noses the minute we walked in our rooms all week. Something about the ventilation in the hotel is not right. Also, there was a daily fee for WiFi access. Boo hiss.
NORTH TOWER:
I apparently got an upgraded room, which came with an extra sitting area. There was a fridge, a nice tv, a couch, a couple of chairs, and a coffee table. A colleague got a non-upgraded room across the hall, which was identical without the extra sitting area. The room was super clean. Everything looked pretty new, the carpet was in great condition, and the tile in the entryway and bathroom was gleaming. Bathroom had a full-sized hair dryer and a garden tub. Bed was super comfy, as part of the upgrade is an upgraded pillow-top mattress. Other than the ventilation playing havoc with my sinuses, this was a great room.
CENTRAL TOWER:
Obviously built before the North Tower, this wing has seen better days long ago. The bedding seemed clean and the bed was comfy enough, but the room had a general "ick" feel to it. The carpet was very worn and stained. There were a couple of used tissues on the floor behind the bathroom trash can. The shower head was broken and flopped down, so I had to crouch and duck under it to wash. No fridge. It just felt old, outdated, and worn out. It was like being in a totally different hotel.
I'd stay in the North Tower again if it were a good deal. I wouldn't go back to the Central Tower.
