Oh my god. This was the best hotel I"ve ever stayed in. Everything about this stay was PERFECT and I hope to never have to stay anywhere else on the strip again!
The Room: Fantastic. Bed literally enveloped me when I lay down on it and immediately put me to sleep. Linens were clean and I wasn't even allergic to them! The double sinks were nice, but obviously the TV in the bathroom with the luxurious bathtub was amazing-even in their cheapy rooms! I made good use of that fantastic tub more than once on my stay.
Pools: Obviously, the big draw for this place. I went on the Monday morning of Memorial Day weekend and basically turned around and walked out. The place was packed shoulder to shoulder, was way too scenester for my taste, and overall was a total bust. Then I went again the following Wednesday at 9am and it was totally vacant-and so I had a blast! Was able to run around for a couple hours and totally enjoy myself without crashing into a single person, and having ample room to float around.
Location: Yes, this is the very end of the strip-but I enjoyed that! The trams are easy enough to take, cabs are everywhere if you're feelings particularly spoiled, or if you have a rental car you can just pop up the backroads into the self parking lot of any casino you like. All in all I loved the location.
As I said, everything about this place was perfect and I've already started plotting my next trip so I can experience it again!
