| - Stayed here over the May long weekend (in Canada) and had an amazing time! Was able to book a package through Southwest that gave us free tickets to Cirque shows as a bonus. We received an upgraded Park Ave room and it was huge and lovely. The beds are very comfortable and we loved the funny packaging on the toiletries provided. Our bathtub drain was ridiculously slow, but otherwise everything was great.
I would recommend checking out the room-service menu. We browsed through it the first night we were in and found that their specials (and meals in general) are very reasonably priced. We got a huge slab of prime rib, that came with veggies, potatoes, buns, and a side salad, an entree salad, and a plate of nachos all for $50. There was more than enough food to feed the four people we had staying in the room, plus leftovers. And the menu is fairly similar to the 'America' restaurant down in the casino.
There is a wide variety of gaming options in the casino, plus food and bars to keep you entertained. Note that the Zumanity box office is the only one that sells day-of tickets in the afternoon and can usually give you a better price than the other ticket retailers. Watch for the Rok reps walking around the bar as they'll give you wristbands to get in free and there is free champagne for ladies from 11-midnight. There is always a giant line for Coyote Ugly but if you're a lady and are with all girls, head up to the front of the line as they'll let you right in. Guys, befriend girls as this will be your ticket to avoid the lineup.
I would definitely stay here again as the walk to the center of the strip isn't too long and the hotel has everything you could need. We had a fabulous time and really enjoyed all of the subtle signs mocking NY/NJ.
