If I would have wrote this review right after check in it would get 1 Star. But the staff and amenities changed that.
Check In : We arrived at 9am and went to check in to see if we could possibly get into our rooms early (We had 5). They told us possibly by 11am. Normal check in is 3pm. So we checked our luggage and went to gamble. Came back around Noon and stil no go on the rooms. Okay, no big deal. Came back later and see a long line. So I get in line and see group after group leave with room keys. Get to the front and they tell me our rooms still aren't ready. I asked how is it possible that guests are walking in off the street and getting rooms and rooms we've been waiting for 5 hours still aren't clean. The frond desk clerk gave me attitude and eventually we got our rooms, ON 3 Different Floors.
Casino : The casino is small in comparison to the ones on the strip, but it's great and every dealer, waitress, etc was great. We all had a blast.
Pool : The pool is amazing, it's beautiful. We also loved playing BJ and Craps out in the beautiful weather. The prices on alcohol are a high but actually pretty reasonable as far as Vegas goes. And of course don't miss the slide through the shark tank.
All in all it was a great time, we were here for my 40th bday and it was amazing. If not for the check in mishap I would have gave the Nugget 4 stars without hesitation. But if you are going to stay downtown, this is the place to be.
