. "3"^^ . "2010-12-07T00:00:00"^^ . . . "This place used to be the \"IT\" spot but when I went back there recently it felt so different! I never realized how small this hotel and casino was! I guess I'm spoiled with always staying at places like Aria, the Venetian, Encore, etc. Anyways it's still a great hotel to stay in. Not my favorite but still good. 3.5 star rating for me\n\nPros:\n- Stayed at the new tower and new suites which was awesome! You have a separate valet, entrance and front desk than the rest of the hotel.\n- Suites are nice and spacious with a completely separate living room and large L shaped sofa which could comfortably sleep 2-3 people if you wanted to. There was only 3 of us in the room so we didn't need to do that. I had my own bed hehe =)\n- Convenient location of the new tower. Right downstairs in Johnny Smalls which is an EXCELLENT restaurant as well as the entrance to Vanity Nightclub.\n- Tiesto is spinning there once a month for all of 2011!!!! GAHHH! That in itself deserves 10 stars!! \n\nCons:\n- Off the strip\n- Ventilation is horrible! The other hotels do a better job at sucking up most of the smoke. They didn't do so well here. =(\n- Smaller place in general\n- Bathroom lighting SUCKS! How are we supposed to put our makeup on in this horrible lighting. I didn't know when to stop adding more blush lol"^^ . "4"^^ . "3"^^ . "4"^^ .
