| - If you don't mind being near the strip, this hotel is worth the stay...
My Yelp buddy Diane V. wrote a review a few months ago while my friends and I were planning a short trip to Vegas (http://www.yelp.com/biz/south-point-hotel-and-casino-las-vegas#hrid:kbZyItZCWEqVpcoqJRaJcQ). Her review got me interested about this place so my friends and I decided to stay here for the weekend. I rarely stay on the strip and usually get a room at the Palace Station (http://www.yelp.com/biz/palace-station-hotel-and-casino-las-vegas#hrid:DgcWjVRf5WG4wUolwBGmEA) which is a lot closer to the strip but doesn't have all that South Point has to offer...
Since it is a bit south of the strip, it's not as pricey plus, they have a movie theatre, an arcade, a 24hr bowling alley, all-you-can-eat buffet, a 24hr restaurant, a burger joint, coffee and ice cream place, a pool, excercise gym... I might be missing some of what they offer but definitely enough for a weekend getaway...
If you're the type who just likes to gamble, this might be the perfect place for you... they also offer a free shuttle to and from the strip... I'm not sure where they drop you off at but at least it's there...
They provide internet access in the rooms but it's not free... for both wired and wireless.. If I remember correctly, it's about $12 per 24hrs... although, if you don't need constant internet access, they do offer free WiFi access in the lobby...
We stayed in a room with 2 queen beds which was actually pretty huge!!!! I mean, there was enough room for about 10 people if six of them didn't mind sleeping on the floor! ;) (You could actually have a total of 12-14 people if you took up all the walkspace...)
This will definitely be one of my go-to hotels next time I'm up in the area...
