. "Seriously. The people giving this terrible reviews are just expecting way too much for what they pay for.\n\nWe just stayed 9 nights (12/10-12/18) at IP. We paid just over $300 for a deluxe room, just over $30 a night. We got a strip view (could see Monte Carlo, Cosmopolitan, Bellagio, Ceasers, Harrah's, Mirage, TI from our 10th floor balcony (very cool).\n\nOur room wasn't much, but it was very clean and housekeeping did a great job all week. They give you plenty of clean towels and washclothes. The shower drained a bit slow at times but for the most part wasn't a problem at all.\n\nOur room was 2 doors down from the elevator (which worked just fine and wasn't slow like a lot of people are complaining about).\n\nThe walking distance to both the strip and the Monorail from our room was virtually non-existent.\n\nThe casino is small and didn't have many slot machines that my wife was interested in, but we weren't planning on staying around the hotel that much anyways.\n\nWe did the buffet only once and it was breakfast. We had a 2 for 1 and it was fine for what we paid ($14.03 for 2 buffets).\n\nMatsuri was awesome!\n\n\n\n\nYou can't beat the central strip location for the price.\n\nPerfect hotel for what we were looking for.\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for luxury, book a hotel with a luxury price, don't be stupid. You aren't going to find luxury here, but you aren't paying for luxury here either.\n\n\nWould stay here again without hesitation!"^^ . . . "1"^^ . "2010-12-21T00:00:00"^^ . "5"^^ . "2"^^ . "0"^^ .
