. "0"^^ . "3"^^ . "After making several trips to Vegas with friends and family, I decided to give a try by making my two night stay at the NY NY the last weekend of March. I've always had the urge to stay here every time I visited Vegas--from the outside, it looks awesome, and everytime I walk passed it, looks like a really fun place to play/drink/eat.\n\nLocation\n\nNY NY is located a little south of the main four (Ceasars/Ballys/Paris/Bellagio) yet it's not so bad of a location if you're trying to get to the south end as well as the north end. The tram out of the MGM (just a walk over the bridge) is an easy ride for the day. It's also relatively close to the airport, which can be somewhat helpful.\n\nCheck In\n\nChecking into the hotel was very fast. Having the advantage of the \"guest-invited line,\" it did save some time from standing in line. My requests were all honored at that time as well--high floor, away from the rollar coasters, and a view. Not bad. 9/10\n\nRooms\n\nThe distance from the elevators of the 24th floor to the rooms was SOOO far! It definitely didn't help when my friends and I were a bit drunk! :p It's like walking through a maze. Not very pleasant. Once we got to the room though, I was fairly impressed. It's got everything we needed--beds/tv/safety box...but I will complain that the bathroom door lock was broken. Didn't bother to call maintenence b/c only there for a few days though. It was overall--clean and well-kept. In all, who cares how the room looks....only there to pass out and shower right?\n\nCasino Floor\n\nQuite spacious and a good choice of machines. Could be winner's first luck! Not too smokey. Not gigantic which makes it easy to navigate the floor easily.\n\nRestaurants/Bars\n\nDidn't dine out at the restaurants however made a food stop at Nathan's! Sooooo goood!!!\n\nOverall experience\n\nI would return back to the NY NY. The rooms were comped and the location isn't so bad. Next time, I will be requesting for a room closer to the elevators. Other than that, no complaints!"^^ . "2010-04-11T00:00:00"^^ . . . "0"^^ . "0"^^ .
