Ok, so to be fair i stayed at this hotel a few years ago when it was still the imperial palace, but I can't imagine much has changed unless the hotel was torn down and rebuilt. Pros: location.... that's it. This hotel is run down, the rooms are very small especially by Las Vegas standards and worst of all reek of cigarette smoke even though the rooms are no longer smoking rooms. We stayed here one night waiting for our reservation at the Venetian to open up and it completely sucked, in fact we called it the imperial sh**hole. Much better hotels are in the same area, check one of those hotels out first and only stay here if you have to!
