A nice but not exceptional Vegas resort. I spent a fair amount of my 2-day stint here so I got to know it decently well on this, my fifth or sixth trip to sin city.
First, the reasons this place is great:
- it has a bunch of clubs.
- it houses the playboy club and heffner suites, which sure I didn't go to but still, cool points.
- it has a mcdonalds open, i think, 24 hours. it's got a decent restaurant.
reasons it's not so sweet:
- it has a mcdonalds. cheesy. the other food options suck, i mean except for the fancy restaurants.
- off-strip, enough so that we didn't end up leaving just to wander. we had a decently regimented trip since there was a lot on our schedule but for our down-time, it's just not close enough to wander around other casinos.
- mediocre gambling. the poker room is tiny and the play at the tables was boring. gambling floor seemed small.
- they took our reservation for a room with two beds but somehow didn't have a room with two beds when we got there. they gave us a room with a queen and promised to send up two cots immediately. when i stumbled in at 5am there were no cots.
I didn't exactly make the place sound awesome; it's entirely decent and the rates were reasonable. But keep your other options in mind.
