Ok let me start by saying if you are comparing this hotel to any of the major casino hotels on the strip move on. This place is not for you! We spent a week in Vegas starting with a 3 day stay in a two bedroom suite with friends then moved to the Venetian in a suite which is no comparison. We moved to Circus Circus for only one night do to no availability where we were to save some money! This place is the equivalency to a low budget $40 a night room for $200! The halls carpet are dirty. The elevator smelled like piss! Bed was so worn out we about disappeared when we laid down. The furniture looked like hand me down. I was told it was the worn out furniture from another big name casino hotel! It looked like it! Smoke in the casino was terrible. We come from a no smoking state that we are very used to now and love. Not likely Vegas will change but newer casinos have better ventilation to remove the smoke. The Cosmo had the best we stayed in. If you stay in low budget hotels then you will be ok with this place. Otherwise pay up and enjoy your stay at another location.
