| - We were here for a week doing the Vegas thing and watching rugby. Some very good things about this property, some not so great.
The good: very friendly and helpfull staff. Need towels, no problem. Some restaurant ideas? No problem. Excellent.
The grounds are exceedingly well-kept. There are large BBQ areas and we saw staff polishing up the BBQs every single day. Looks like a great spot to cook up some steaks.
Pool area was very nice, with a good tropical vibe. Too bad it was in the 50's most of the time we were there, so not a lot of pool time. Hot tubs were very nice.
The rooms were clean, but maybe a little dated. There are renovations underway in other wings, and I'm guessing we were in one that had not gotten updated. The bathroom was killer. Big soaking tub and a steam shower that should be mandatory in all hotels. Good kitchen, well-equipped for cooking, if you're into that in Vegas.
The not so good: The bed in our room was wretched. Truly wretched. Had the spring-type mattress, so if one person rolls over, the other knows about it. The blankets were undersized and thin. Seriously, we each tried sleeping on the sofa bed one night and it was actually better than the bed, and that's scary. And as mentioned in another review, there's no actual restaurant on property. Denny's can't really count and Tahiti Joe's, while well-staffed should have the cook slapped.
So why four stars? Because once the rest of the rooms are renovated and that god-awful bed burned, the place will rock. We'd stay here again, no doubt.
