| - Mix emotions about this place, to make this an OK review. But, I'll give credit where credit is due.
Located off Las Vegas Blvd and Silverado, stands a Casino/Hotel far south of the Las Vegas Strip. Outside and inside looks really nice and very well kept clean and detailed.
It was a Wednesday afternoon, when we checked in. It was kind of slow, and check in was a cinch. The people in the front desk were nice, on checking us in. Not much of a small talk, but they were quick and courteous.
It was quite a walk to our room, since the elevators were on the opposite end of the front desk. I would say it's like walking two football fields, before we reached the elevators. But we got to our room okay, and the room was decent. It was a good size room with a king size bed, a couch, coffee table, dresser and a desk for the laptop. The bathroom was really nice also. Unfortunately, I wasn't fond of the view that we got, but I guess that's what we get when we reserve the cheapest room. Mainly it wasn't much of a view, it was more of the side wall of the convention halls and the storage area. But of course, we didn't plan to be looking out the window anyhow.
Our stay was for the food truck fest they were having across the street. But since this is Southpoint we're talking about. The casino area isn't all that satisfying. The waitresses on one hand, were quick with orders. Despite how busy it is, they tend to get your drinks at a reasonable amount of time. The Dealers on the hand, was a bit disappointing. I know they have nothing to do with the game, since they're only dealers. But I would like to have a game where you feel invited to play and not feel intimidated by the dealers who can't say anything to you and not welcome you to the table. The thing I hate most about some dealers, is that, they won't talk till you start tipping. I do work as a casino dealer myself, and I entertain my guess cause this is Vegas, the city of entertainment. Going to another casino to gamble, and not being welcomed or even a "good luck" till after tipping them, is a bit unsatisfying. After the fact of tipping them and losing my money, and still not get a "thank you for playing" is kind of unprofessional from my point of view.
We did stop by the Steak N Shake, which I did write a review about. It was nice and the food was decent. I did like their unique milkshake combo, which is a must try when you visit. We also stop by Coronado Cafe, which was a good place to get breakfast.
Overall, the place is very nice. The rooms were very decent and decorated very well. But if you want a view, you might get a room that's higher than the 7th floor and not facing the garage or the convention center. Restaurants are very well kept and decent. I didn't go to the Garden Buffet this time around, probably cause the first time around, it wasn't that great. But I did like Steak N Shake and Coronado Cafe. If you are planning to gamble, hope you have better luck and nicer dealers than I have. Otherwise try gambling in a place that is more entertaining and worth your while.
