| - DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU CAN HELP IT.
The SLS barely qualifies as being on the Strip- it is super far from all the other hotels, and not walking distance to anywhere. It's actually closer to Downtown Vegas, which is less than a mile away. Also, the rooms there are very small, and if you get two beds, they will be doubles instead of queens.
When we checked in, the front desk person was incredibly rude, and they couldn't even find my reservation through Hotwire. After waiting for 15 minutes, they had to charge my credit card for the night, and refund me the next day after they called Hotwire to sort out the issue. The room was too modern for my tastes- the curtain shade had a crowd of people screened on it, which was really creepy. There also isn't a fan in the bathroom. The one plus for the ladies is that they have two giant floor length mirrors with inset lighting- perfect for getting ready. However, that is where the positives end- the AC in our first room broke so we had to change rooms the next day. After waiting on hold for 10 minutes to speak with someone in their Front Desk department, they told me my credit card wasn't swiped correctly the day before, so I had to go downstairs and give it to them again, which was really annoying. I finally complained to a manager and they said they would comp our resort fee for our troubles- but of course I got charged and now have to dispute them. The other annoying thing is that they don't have separate elevator banks, so if you have a higher floor, you have to wait to drop off 3-5 people on the way up to your room. Their casino and sports book area are small, and their club (LiFe) is mediocre. Needless to say, I will NOT be staying at the SLS again!
