One of my favorite places to stay in LV.

This is one of my favorite hotels in Vegas. It's older which I like. Much better these days as they reduce the areas where you can smoke. Rooms are large and comfortable. Something very rare in LV is coffee IN THE ROOM! A big deal to me. Also a nice size refrigerator.

The casino was fine. The hotel room had a vroken shower faceplate. You didnt know which way was hot or cold water and it just twisted until it turned off. The AC unit wasnt working and it would shut off if you turned it to high fan. We got up in the middle of the night to open the door and let the outside air flow in. In july, it was really hot.
