I stayed here with 3 of my girlfriends back in November. The location is great because it's truly at the center of the strip plus it's close to some of the other great hotels (Caesar's, The Cosmopolitan, Planet Hollywood, etc). Our room was amazing. It was spacious and the bathroom was spectacular! However, the casino was very smoky. I understand though... but the smoking is such a turn off for any nice hotel!
It was kind of annoying as we would go to the guest elevators, there would be an attendant checking for our room keys. At the time I didn't really understand why. Security reasons?
