| - Eh...debated on a 2 or a 3. It wasn't bad as compared to Planet Hollywood, but it wasn't great either.
Check in wasn't bad, easy, got to room, non eventful, nice not to get accosted by someone selling a time share posing as a door man like Planet Hollywood. After we dropped our luggage in the room, we went to check out the pool.
So, a pool, you swim in it, you play, you splash, splash, laugh, it's water, but not here, no, young man, you are not at the pool to swim, you are there, to bare your man chest and watch the women watching you, or the women that want you to watch, as they do their mating dance, one expects them to goose step and crow some song to get noticed, like a bird or something.
It was there we looked at each other and said "we're too old for this pool" almost mutually. Well not too old, but if you're past your mid 20's you're too old for this crowd.
Then there's the music that pumps all over the Casino, loud whiny green day like music that just gets on your nerves, the guys can't sing, the girls sound like they're in pain, it's a massive sound assault and the only way you can escape it is to go to your room, they pipe it in the elevators too.
So this is a part that I've observed in most Vegas hotels so it's not just the Palms. You get jack shit. Want some coffee, shut up! Go to Starbucks, how about a workout in the gym? up yours! you have to go to the spa and pay for it. Free Continental Breakfast? Haha don't be a dumbass, you gotta give money. Laundrymat? oh come on now open up your wallet, no coin laundry here!
I will say the Palms had a lot of pillows and towels (the cheap kind you wouldn't want to steal). TV was one of the old style ones, so you can tell that you, oh $200 a night person, are not worth of a cheap assed $300 26" LCD TV to view, at least that's what they seem to be saying here.
Concierge..I couldn't find one, if there was one, they were taking a lot of breaks, I tried calling front desk once, after 10 rings I gave up. They're good at sending you sales messages on the phone, however.
It was only a passing security gent that told me about the shuttle going to the strip "theys one at 12 and one at 2, etc" .
Slot promos are not really worth the time unless you're really going to gamble there, the slots aren't lose and you will lose more often than win. Solve that issue real fast by going next door to the Gold Coast, or go to the Strip I've found Paris Casino to be a pretty good slot place as well.
We did like the food court area with Nathans (wow, they have them on the west coast, cool). And we saw a movie at the theatre, so not a bad place, just not a great place.
So what else did we do here, oh the Playboy club, cool stuff, this is more of an older crowd vibe, well managed, didn't feel like an outsider and they treat you pretty well.
Not a place for families, you will be sadly disappointed, esp at the pool, clear the area, its a pre fornication party! There's liquid flying and it's not water from the pool.. I'll leave it at that.
Ok so it's a mixed bag, room wasn't bad, views were nice, service eh..not so hot, some clubs weren't bad, I got in and out easily. Just needs a bit more improvement in customer service.
