I only stayed here for one night after finding a fabulous deal at Travelzoo.com. $93 for a Friday night during 4th of July weekend? I pounced on that deal like Lindsay Lohan pounces on lines of coke that "mysteriously" appear on the table. Yes, it was THAT good!
Upon entering the lobby, I was enveloped with such pleasant scents and a cool and calm environment. If only all Vegas hotels were smoke-free. You felt like you weren't in Vegas anymore. There are no annoying slot machine sounds or douchebags that look like they came from The Jersey Shore. There is actually a major sense of normalcy here. I like.
Our room was one of the studio rooms that make up the majority of the rooms at this hotel. Our view was less that spectacular...unless a view of the Erotic Heritage Museum across the street is your cup of tea. I should have taken up that $50 upgrade for a better room from the person at the front desk. Ah well. Our room was very clean and actually pretty spacious. The TV incorporated in the mirror of the bathroom was a very nice touch. The shower is gigantic! You can easily fit 4 people in that thing. Much like the lobby, you get a relaxed state of mind in your room. I likey.
Yes, there's a mandatory resort fee at about $20. I got a chance to use the pool, but not the fitness center. The pool was pretty standard. There were a lot of kids roaming in and out of the pool, but I wasn't surprised with the type of crowd for this hotel. I must say though that the waitresses at the pool were very appealing to one's eyes. I likey a lot.
The Trump is a very good alternative if you don't want to deal with the hustle and bustle of other busy hotels. I would strongly consider coming back here again.
