| - Overall: Harrah's delivers exactly what you expect - a cheap price, a good location and a clean room. Remember Total Rewards members can check in early.
From check-in (remember, Total Rewards members are able to check in early, others may have to pay a fee) to check-out, everything at Harrah's was as expected in our Carnival Tower room. The staff were all friendly and efficient. The rooms and facilities were clean, but dated. The WiFi worked fine. The room worked fine in terms of air conditioning, water pressure, etc. The noise between rooms was non-existant.
Harrah's is not a 5 star resort. It does not have a giant pool party scene. It does not have the strip's greatest restaurants. It does not have wild and crazy clubs. The catch is, Harrah's does not claim to have any of this and should not be judged poorly because of it. Instead, when you judge Harrah's for what it claims to have, Harrah's is in a good location, has cheaper amenities (food, table limits, etc) and has cheap rooms. You are coming here to save money on your hotel, and have to understand that it will not give you the same experience as the Aria or Wynn.
I would stay at Harrah's again if I were looking for budget accommodations in this part of the strip. It is exactly as advertised, and for the price can be much cheaper than the surrounding hotels (with the exception of the Quad).
One tip: If looking for a quick bite to eat there are many options in the Linq area. You can quickly get here by walking through Harrah's to the Quad. We tried the pizza-by-the-slice place, the "haute doggery" and Sprinkles (cupcake ATM). Both were very good considering the time of day that we went. The food court at Harrah's was under construction when we were there, so this was the best option for quick dining.
