Perhaps Im missing something or perhaps Im just getting to that ripe old age in my 20s where getting drunk with a bunch of frat boys and 30 something guys who never left their frat party is just unappealing. I went to LV with a couple of friends and they wanted to stay here. I'd stayed before, but it had been awhile so I agreed to it.
The room was probably the best thing about the hotel. We stayed in a suite and it was admittedly quite nice. I am a hotel snob so if I admit it was nice, it really was. I am hard to please.
Leaving the hotel room was a totally different story. We went down to the pool (no cabana the first day) and good lord was I ever reminded of my first year of college! Simply put, the whole experience really was some never ending frat party. I hate to admit this as it just means that I have yet another review that proves I have officially reached old fart status in my ripe old 20s. The cabanas are great so if you have the means, reserve one. (Note, if you're with a group of your girlfriends and tell them that, they may comp. it!)
Someone mentioned that security is really strict here and I agree with it... however I do think that is due to the fact that this hotel attracts your typical MTV Spring Break type crowd (aka never ending frat party) and thus, it rubs off on to all patrons. Just something to keep in mind.
Good bye Hard Rock. If I ever become unboring and feel the need to party hard like a drunk soroity slut, I'll be back.
(I will come by for Nobu but that is a whole different review!)
