| - I may be a little unfair about the 3-star but let me explain. The rooms are gorgeous and big and new. We were on the 36th floor with a fantastic view. The lobby is beautiful and there is a shuttle to the Wynn and Caesar's Palace every 15 minutes, which is helpful because the hotel itself is tucked away behind Fashion Square Mall. It was a $15 cab ride to the Bellagio, which was a shame because that's where we spent the majority of our time. Another negative is that there is a train thing that goes through the hotel somewhere .... not very descriptive but I could hear a train whistle all night - LOUDLY. If you're going with kids, this is a good option because there is no casino at the hotel ..... good in some ways, bad in the other. It would be great if we had closer options to a casino but if you're with a group and some want to go home and some want to continue gambling, you're out alone or you're stuck going back with your group. There is also a $20/day resort fee, which is extremely unncessary considering there is no casino and, except for the pool, nothing free that would warrant that required fee. The 3-star from me comes from being far from the good parts of the strip, no casino, the loud train whistle and the required resort fee. If you're not looking to be within walking distance to the busy parts of the Strip or you're not looking to gamble, you may feel this is the place for you.
