ive stayed at better for the amount i paid. spent the past weekend there, and was disappointed!
pros:
- location! located right in the middle of the strip, it was easy to go to surrounding hotels, although due to the insane summer heat my friends and i taxied it to most of our destinations
- mini fridge in the room was great! kept our vodka ice cold! :P
- burger joint: flamingo's all night diner had a great deal - the burger deal or whatever, but basically a burger and fries for only $2! cant beat that
cons:
- room cleanliness: the carpet in the room looked like the floor of a frat house; stains everywhere - even in the closet! ... i was also unsettled by the beginnings of mildew on the shower curtain
- check in: i wasnt expecting the long line at the check in counter at 1am on a friday. i had to wait an HOUR in line just to check in. i didnt understand it considering it only took me about ten mins when i got to the counter
would i stay here again? probably not. i came on the recommendation from a friend that the renovated rooms were very nice, and im sure they are, but if you get stuck in the older wing of the hotel, dont expect anything! its only slightly better than a motel. so not worth the amount of money i paid ($240 for two nights!)
