| - As a local and a gambler, I take advantage of my free suite nights at Silverton every month. I usually get a suite, and when it is not available a regular room. In the past, the beds were very comfortable, but it has been years since they remodeled the rooms and the beds are getting very tired. They used to be pillow-top firm and now they are just so mushy, anyone with a bad back beware. Decor is Hunting Lodge themed, and in the suites there is a large spa tub and multi-head shower. Also a flat screen TV, but the TV in the bed area is very much old school and small. They give you bath & body works personal care items which is a nice touch. Rooms are sometimes a little dusty and housekeeping seems to miss the finer areas of cleaning, like on tops of wardrobes, etc. The one thing I really dislike, both in the rooms and suites, is that their air conditioning system is not central. Regular rooms have wall units which are extremely noisy and interrupt my sleep. Some of the suites have a more central type unit, other suites do no. My biggest complaint is that this week I had a suite on the first floor right outside the pool. Both mornings, at 10am the music went on at the pool and that was the end of my sleep. The music was very loud and could awaken most people. I had called the hotel to report this and stated that considering these suites are their most expensive accommodations and that when they are comped they are comped to their good customers, I thought it was very inconsiderate on the hotel's part to disturb guests at such an earlier hour. Lets face it, we are in Vegas, late nights, lots of drinking, I do not want an unsolicited wake up call at 10am. The good comment here is that for people on a budget and do not like having to hike miles to their room once they are in for the night, access to rooms is easy, either from the parking garage, outside parking or valet. Unlike some strip properties when you come back for the night, it could take you up to half an hour to get to your room.
