Overall the hotel staff and hotel itself is just fine. Playing slot machines or any game there are no servers to bring beverages anymore that part was terrible and i mran terrible. Not 1 drink was offered while playing. And to be honest breakfast for 4 people was 167.00 dollars 4 mixed cocktails was 125.00 this hotel is nice if your going to Vegas but dont expect anything that is properly priced.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (31 reviews)
Great hotel. Clearly freshly refurbished and excellent facilities. Staff were extremely attentive - everyone we bumped into in the lift, for example, even junior team members, asked how we were and whether there was anything that they could do to improve our stay. Shows a great culture! Only downsides are a bar that shuts very early (10pm) and a LOT of mosquitoes in the outdoor pool area - they give bug spray it we had to retreat late afternoon or after rain.
