| - Did you know SLS stands for Savor Life Slowly? That's a perfect way to describe this hotel! It's not the typical hype and fast pace that Vegas brings... I'm sure that's mostly because it is away from all the action. I was surpringly happy with my staycation at the SLS. The property is very small and the details are not nearly as refined as other Vegas hotels, but for the price it was perfect!
There are 3 towers on the property and each has a different decor and theme. I stayed in the Story Tower and it lived up to its name! I don't know how else to put this than to say, the story tower rooms are pretty much a SEX PAD! Not like anything else I've seen in Vegas! They are small, under 400 square feet - but they are modern and ultra cool. At first glance it felt cheap, but at second thought it is brilliant really! Concrete walls and ceiling - blocks out noise between rooms. White plastic furniture: headboard and sofa - but they have lights with dimmer switches which create some awesome mood lighting! The doors to he shower and bathroom are mirrored sliding doors with views of the bed. And the best and craziest feature of all is the giant mirror hung on the ceiling above the bed!! Don't stay here with your mother! (You've officially been warned!)
The property boasts 2 restaurants by José Andrés: Bazaar Meat & Ku Noodle, a burger joint: Unami Burger, a pizza place: 800 Degrees, a cafe: Northside Cafe, a Japanese Restaurant: Katsuya by Starck Cleo, and a coffee shop: The Perk. For a smaller property you cannot find better food! I'll review the restaurants separately, but I enjoyed the food at several places.
The Monkey Bar is a quiet little hang out. It was dead the entire weekend, but the cocktails were nothing short of wonderful. They have a small little patio off the bar which was perfect for enjoying a cigar.
I went to the pool twice. Saturday it was pumping with live DJ and all, it was free cover which was awesome! Sunday however it was dead and relaxing, great if you're hung over, not great if you're looking to party more. There is a second pool that's family friendly but I didn't spend any time there.
I got lost trying to find my car because there are 2 parking garages, but all in all I have few complaints. The Monarail will take you as far as MGM Grand which is convenient since the SLS is clear on the far end of the strip. I will 100% be staying at the SLS again!
