This is the old Imperial Palace.
Positives:
-Location. Across from Caesar's and Mirage, near Las Vegas Blvd + Flamingo intersection.
-Price. Cheaper than neighboring properties.
Negatives:
-Book non-smoking room and get smoking room ("first come first served")
-Loud subwoofer outside hotel room
-Balcony sliding door that doesn't close entirely, accentuating the loud subwoofer
-AC/heating unit that sounds like a diesel engine that's aggressively competing with the loud subwoofer for noise supremacy
-Long check-in line. About 40-60 minutes. They know how many guests will be checking in every day - almost all of them have reservations. Yet they don't match the workforce to the workload. Amateurish.
Before, the positives outweighed the negatives. Maybe because I'm getting older and grumpier, the negatives are outweighing the positives by a large margin.
