I was excited that the SLS opened in Vegas. First, it's a hotel I want to stay at in Beverly Hills and second the first time I came to Vegas as an adult I stayed at the Sahara.
Upon arriving at the SLS I was thinking did I make the wrong decision? There was only one taxi dropping people off. I don't think I've ever seen that. The hotel has a small casino, they didn't even have my favorite game of pai gow but I think it's supposed to be more of a boutique hotel. The rooms are on the smaller side, smaller than pretty much any hotel room I've been in in Vegas. Upon walking into the bathroom, I noticed the glasses were completely dirty as in they were used, there were dirt stains on there. That made me very skeptical. The rest of the room was fine but on the second night, they left me lotion in place of shampoo. Before I went to the room, my key card stopped working and it took me 20 minutes to get a new key card. These issues are what why I'm giving it three stars.
I think the rooms here will get dated quickly and the reason why is they use tiles for the bathroom. If tiles aren't washed, dirt will build up (i.e. Planet Hollywood) and it'll be black and just gross.
Anyway for $80 it was fine but I don't think I'll be looking forward to staying here again.
