| - For you Hawaii folks, the Orleans is one of the hotels you can choose when booking a vacation package through Vacations Hawaii. It costs a little more than the California or Fremont, but I think it's worth it since it's pretty close to the Strip. Just a quick cab ride into town--about $10-15 depending on traffic and who takes you.
I actually had pretty low standards for this place, but was quite pleased with the room. Two big beds and a small sitting area. Pretty clean too. There's even small desk where you can plug in your laptop and get internet ($12.99 a day), which is where I'm writing my review at the moment.
I don't know how crowded this place normally is, but there's some kind of high school sports thing going on because I see a lot of kids here wandering through the casino, but never lingering at the slot machines or bar.
There's a cafe open 24 hours a day that's decent. The food is "eh", but they seem to be severely under-staffed so service is quite slow. For a little less, if you don't mind fast food, I recommend just walking down to the food court and getting Fuddruckers or whatever you prefer.
Definitely not a hotel to spend all your time in while on vacation, but for just sleeping and a quick meal before heading out to the strip, this could be the place for you.
