"Yes, I know this place is not even close to a 5 star hotel, but really awesome, here's why:\n\nMy girlfriend and I stayed in the ocean view room. but we got the strip view instead, 7th floor, amazing for the price we paid, avg. $35-40/night + their suite w/a Jacuzzi was about $90-120/night, and that was sweet as well.\n\nThe room is clean, Strong shower head and soft bed. I don't know why people are complaining about stained carpets and urine smell, our room smelled like Pina Colada with a Carribean theme. \n\nWe got $100 each for their promotional slot machine deal. \n24 hour room service, but if you dine at Mad Onion from midnight-6AM, they have sweet deals on Breakfast + Wings. \n\nThe dealers are friendly, and the bartenders are super nice.\n\nPlus, the location is awesome, \"off the strip\" but walking distance to Tropicana, Luxor, MGM, & Mandalay Bay.\n\nHere are some things you should know:\n-the parking situation is a kind of annoying, lots and lots of rough speed bumps\n-if you have a lot of luggage, its annoying to transport it from the parking garage to your room. \n-the elevator from the parking garage to the hotel is creepy, but the elevator from the casino to your room is alright.\n\nOverall, for the sweet deal we got, I will most definitely come back!\nThis place is better than Rio, Tropicana, Circus Circus, Flamingo, & Stratosphere."^^ . . .
