| - Alright, so everyone wants to go to Vegas and stay in the modern, beautiful expensive hotels, i.e., Cosmo, Planet Hollywood, Aria, etc., but don't get too caught up in the excitement of it all because Treasure Island is still pretty nice and about a third of the price.
It has a great location (right in the middle of the strip with restaurants, stores and hotels everywhere), pretty good rooms (genuinely the most heavenly comforter I've ever slept under) and good prices.
We stayed in a room with a strip view, which, as we found out, is both a curse and a blessing. Yes, we saw the amazing night lights and had fun watching the crazies stumbling around with their foot long Fat Tuesdays. But, we also heard the "Sirens of TI", their (oddly seductive for an initially kid friendly hotel) pirate show outside the hotel...every night...multiple times... Had it stuck in our heads the whole trip--not the worst thing but also not the greatest.
The hotel itself is kinda meh--go somewhere else for dinner, but the as far as accommodations it's a solid choice for a Vegas trip that won't break the bank.
