Unpretentious. Reminding you that Vegas is not just extravagance and VIP booths and celebrity owned restaurants, but a place for poorly dressed, unattractive people. And LOTS of them. Everywhere.
1. Staff here has been extremely nice, the cute concierge guys who sell show tickets were very helpful and when walking back to my room looking like a hot hot mess, one of the repair guys actually walked me to my end of the hotel. It turned out he used to live in the Haight. The 94117 follows me everywhere.
2. 24 hour McDonald's in the basement. When you roll in at 7am barefoot after knocking back a gazillion glasses of bourbon with your new BFFs at Ceasar's Palace, you realize that you need a mass quantity of processed food or you're not going to make it.
3. Rooms are nothing special and the bedding is hideously tacky, but the water pressure is awesome and how much time are you spending here anyway?
4. The gambling is low pressure. Lots and lots of slots!
The biggest negative is that there is no wi-fi, but I found a way around that.
