| - Went here in late June and had to say that location wise, this place was great. Prime spot on the strip and most things were in walking distance. Unfortunately, it was 100° plus every day while we were there, so we kept mostly to the indoors.
We stayed in the spa room on the 29th floor which was pretty nice. The spa was a wide enough to have two people lay side by side with plenty of room still, and the view from there overlooked the strip for the best view I've ever had there. Shower had a space between the glass door and glass wall so water was always squeezing between the two and wet the floor, so we had to have a couple towels there all the time. It had a steamer control but it's a wise idea to keep your feet far away from the tube that pours that out, as it's HOT! Room safe faces you as you sit on the toilet and wasn't big enough for a laptop so that did us no good. TV was an older tube with the volume blown, but who really comes to Las Vegas to watch TV?
Bed had no comforter on it, but with controls for maintaining the room temperature, I guess it wasn't really needed. We did get chocolate left on the pillow on the day we called for new linen from housekeeping which was cool. And we got the wired internet (that's right, wired!) and two small bottles of water for the price of the resort fee which blows. A copy of the USA today was available in the center of the hotel floor, but we kept waking up late and found the copies were always gone.
The casino itself was somewhat on the quiet side, but like every other casino I've seen there lately, they had booty girls doing their dancing from 3pm until ?pm/am. I have to say also that this was one of the best smelling casinos except for the front of the Lance Burton Theatre, where it always seemed to have a strong fart smell.
Slots were very tight and unforgiving and the waitresses seemed few and far between - you could get super thirsty waiting for any to pass by.
This I guess replaces a review I had here before but has mysteriously vanished.
