    Who doesn't love a good circus? On my most recent trip to Vegas, I decided to walk around this hotel on The Strip for a bit on a week day afternoon. My main purpose? I heard that they have daily circus shows for free. As I walked around to enquire about the event, I found out that during the off-season (it was February), they don't always do daily shows. I was out of luck unfortunately. While a bummer, I explored the hotel a bit. It's so-so. Compared to other hotels on The Strip, this one seems pretty outdated and average. The type of old school casinos where a cloud of smoke follows you everywhere you go. There are some cool things though. Circus-themed architecture. A large cut-out of Elvis. Etc. I don't think staying here would be the most pleasant of stays, but I'm sure it's more affordably priced than other options. It's on one end of the strip close to the Stratosphere. Wish I had been able to check out the free show!

    I love this place but if I'm telling the truth it's fun here the promotions are great the stuff great but the pillows and linens need to be thrown in the trash and they need to be updated!! I used to only stay here on my birthday, which is in February but lately I've been coming more because the promotions have been so good. And now the more that I stay, I've been noticing the quality of my bedding and I get these disgusting black spots on my pillows when I wake up or when I get out of the shower and I looked it up on Google and it seems as though this can be mold or mildew it creeps me out and disgusts me to the point where I bring my own pillows and covers or even trash bags to place over the pillows. I'm not sure if everyone is having this problem but almost every room I've stayed and I've noticed the same thing. I hate to leave a bad review because I truly do enjoy coming to this property and the workers there, but this needs to be addressed immediately. The images posted are 3 different stays ... like i said im not 100% sure its mold but im 10000% grossed out

    Mr. Ruffin has now decided to bring back vintage Vegas Prices with $2 hot dogs, shrimp cocktails, Heiniken, popcorn and $5 table games! Customers who are value sensitive will love it here. No matter where you're staying in Vegas, you should make your way here to enjoy the vintage pricing. Thank me later.

    Came to specifically play Bingo. Been meaning to get here the last few months since Bingo went live here. Finally made it. They have the old school paper only and dauber bingo only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sunday. Only cash is accepted for purchase of Bingo cards. The Bingo room is located upstairs just past the Adventure Dome. $30 for the 1st pack which includes 3 drink tickets. Alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages are available. They have hot dogs for purchase. Daubers for sale $2 and up. Overall decent Bingo session. I may come back again at some point.

    Let's win that prize !!!

    That old tune, "the song that remains the same!" You can come here when you're a child and it's the same dance . Same song ! We are reliving the moment where we all met. When I was a little kid again. The demise of the Circus is coming! Remember when come and spend an extra hour of your day to make this not happen as fast . Vegas is changing and with the birth of new hotels this one is going to come to an end. We went old school Vegas. We played at the last slot machine in Vegas that takes coins . Wow and actually won! Celebrate the past to leave it here and move into the future. The midway upstairs is still fun ! The games are in great condition. You can still loose your self for a time and land on your feet being a kid again. Come and see old Vegas that warm feeling before it's gine

    I chose to stay at this hotel because I had great childhood memories of being here with my parents. Now that I have two children of my own, I wanted to make those type of memories with them. Initially, I had booked the cheapest room. Upon checking in, they have kiosks that you check yourself into and it hands you the keys. The kiosk offered a room upgrade for $30 more so I accepted. The place is very lively and super packed. The parking situation is a nightmare. The spots are so small and you're going around in circles forever hoping someone will leave. We parked in the structure almost at the very top and had to take the elevator back down. The elevator was absolutely repulsive. You can tell that it's never been cleaned since 1968 when they opened. It's supposed to be a smoke free hotel but reaks of cigarettes. Once we found our room, we were hit with a tremendously awful smell. I sprayed my boyfriend's cologne everywhere and even that didn't help. There's no fridge, no microwave, no coffee pot, nothing. The toiletries are a prison bar of soap and a conditioner that's drilled to the wall. The place is ghettoooo. Ladies so drunk their breasts are out and guys so sloppy drunk they're dropping their belongings. I will say that AdventureDome being just downstairs from your room is a really nice touch. There's also a Starbucks, Popeyes, and Pick Up Sticks. They are incredibly inflated though and customer service is terrible so I wouldn't suggest it. They also have a splash pad that looks super fun but it's sooo crowded I didn't even bother. I think the worst part of this stay were the hotel elevators during checkout. It's a huge mob of people all waiting for the same elevator and when it finally arrives, it's too crowded to even go into. There was people shoving each other or cutting each other. We legit waited thirty minutes until we decided to just take the one million flight of stairs. Overall I would not suggest it at all. I paid $273.05 for two nights and I guess you get what you pay for so I think next time I'll spend more money and go elsewhere.

    Circus Circus feels really old and outdated, and honestly, it comes across as pretty gross in some areas. The room was run down and dated. We didn't stay. The whole place just lacks the clean, fresh vibe you'd expect from a Vegas hotel. It tries to be fun with its carnival theme, but it ends up feeling cheap and a bit run-down instead. Definitely not the best choice if you're looking for a comfortable or modern stay.

    Circus Circus is one of those classic Vegas spots. I've been coming here since I was a kid, and now we bring our son, so there's definitely nostalgia attached. We always head up to the Midway, play the carnival games, and catch the free shows. The games are affordable at around $2-$2.50 each, which is rare these days, and the weekend shows, trapeze, juggling, and other acts, are fun to watch and don't cost a thing. That said, it's more about the experience than the wow factor. If you're looking for a simple, family-friendly place to let the kids have fun without spending a ton, Circus Circus delivers. Just don't expect anything beyond the basics.

    This was our last resort because we got side tracked to vegas for a few days after our flight was cancencelled until two days later. This was the only hotel available. It's unfortunate because we do not like this hotel and still do not after this stay. For starters, this place is dirty and filthy as seen in some of my pictures. In our original room, it smelled like weed and cigarettes. We asked to move and were presented with a better smelling room. The staff were overall friendly. Most of the hotel smells. It is also located off the strip so it's a pretty long walk to get to the attractions and main hotels. There are also no circus shows playing when we stayed here!! The evelvator was reliable and the water pressure in the bathrooms was nice. Besides that, I don't have many good things to say about this place. Every door we touched, shocked us and it made me feel dirty staying here. I wouldn't recommend unless absolutely required. For kids however, I can see how this would be fun. There is a whole kid area with roller coasters and arcade games. If I was a child, I would enjoy this for a few hours. The outdoor pool would be fun too

    Upon check in, this is what was in the room. How does housekeeping miss this?!!!
    Rudy D.

    I would truly like to understand what they do well here. Arrived an hour earlier than check in and was told it would cost us $30+ if we chose to check in early. We declined. Room had zero frills. Our window had a view of a wall. No fridge, microwave nor coffee maker. I didn't expect much but hoped for better. Only two sets of towels with no hand towels. The shampoo container was sitting on the tub. The crusty double backed tape was still stuck on the shower surround. A simple repair, yet they made a decision not to. Only three hangers in the room. Called next day to get towels. Instead of getting housekeeping, it was forwarded to front desk where I waited a half hour before hanging up. Went to front desk and told them our needs. Handed the phone and she connected me right away to housekeeping. They then delivered towels within the hour. My wife was able to get ahold of housekeeping via phone, as we were getting short of TP. No delivery... again went to front desk and delivery made hours later. Not all was terrible. Water pressure and hot water is great. Because of the convention the rates for this subpar property were over $160 a night. These rooms typically go for $30 a night, though I wouldn't stay here unless I absolutely had to even at $30 a night....

    Even with low expectations, the hotel failed to meet them. The place is so run down, old, and smells. It was a ghost town. The room itself had questionable stains on the furniture, no hangers in the closet, broken wood inside the closet, no fan in the bathroom, and just general sense of a forgotten hotel stuck in the past. The server at the Big Chill 2 frozen margarita bar was nice though. They say you get what you pay for, but even at the price which includes a $50 per day resort fee, it's not worth it.

    We didn't stay here, was in the area so just stopped by to check it out. They do provide free parking, we just went in through the hotel registration/parking entrance since it wasn't very clear where else we could park. The place feels old and not kept up to date, it doesn't feel dirty, but nor was it clean. It's a little bit of a maze to find our way to the Midway, and on the top level there were many arcade games and in the center was the stage for the free circus act. Happens every half hour or so on certain days and maybe lasts 8 minutes. I believe the rest of the time is for you to take your kids to spend at the arcade games. The act itself was fun, obviously can't really stand up to the bigger productions in Vegas, but it's free.

    Circus Circus honestly surprised me in a way I did not expect. Yes, it's old and definitely dated, but it also has a ton of great machines and a fun, slightly chaotic vibe that kind of works. Walking through the arcade and circus areas took me straight back to my childhood, in a way that felt nostalgic instead of sad. I would love to come back and actually catch some of the live circus acts because that part alone feels like classic Vegas. I am not sure I would stay at the hotel given the condition of some of the public areas, but as a stop to gamble a bit, wander around, and experience a different side of the Strip, it's a surprisingly fun visit.

    Ask the Community - Circus Circus

    How is the food for kids?

    There's a good court but not cheap, a pizza restaurant and the buffet wasn't open the last time we visited, I wanna say there's also more food up at the 2nd floor where the shops are and you might find something! McDonald's also available on second… 

    Is it pet friendly?

    Honestly I doubt it. It is very crowded, noisy and I did not see any place if you have a dog to walk it. It is surrounded by sidewalks.

    Is there any dance clubs or lounge? Also is there any beer pong to play on the strip?

    Not at Circus Circus Beer Pong can be played at Planet Hollywood

    Is the buffet open?

    When we were there in April it was open

    Do the rooms have microwaves?

    The room that we had didn't have a microwave.

    Is there free airport shuttle?

    Go somewhere else, don’t stay there!

    Planning a family trip in August want to know if the rooms are clean?

    My husband was recently there and the room looked like it hadn’t been clean in a while. And when he brought it to the supervisor was rude

    Planning on going to Vegas for the first time how's the rooms here?

    Decent and cheap.

    So you need to be vaccinated?

    No, we do not check guest vaccination status. We are following the mask mandate that is still in place.

    Is the roller coaster is still open?

    Yes, both coasters are running.

    Is there valet parking available right now?

    No, only self park.

    Can I use a different to check in both have my name on it I looked it up on there site it said only need id card I was want to sure I can?

    Are you able to buy day passes for the pool?or do u have to be staying at the hotel?

    Hello is the Adventuredome open in the monthnif January??? thank you

    Yes, The Adventuredome is open in January, however we do have some scheduled closures for maintenance. The closures are scheduled on Jan 11-14, Jan 19-21, and Jan 26-28. We hope to see you soon!

    Do the rooms have mini fridges or coolers?

    no they don't

    Parking availability for free?

    Yes, self parking is free.

    Me and my girl friend plan on going to Vegas in August. Would you recommend this hotel? How clean is the rooms/bathrooms and amusement park? And how safe do you feel when you're there? Is the food any good?

    No, isn't all that clean and is run down. It's not very safe look at news reports about fights and shootings that occur there. Food mainly sucks unless you eat at the expensive steakhouse.

    Is the water slides available for children or is that an additional cost?

    They are available and free to kids In the pool area as long as you stay at Circus Circus. They just have to be a certain height.

    Can you receive mail here?

    Going next week with my fam. Wife and I are veterans here but never been with our kids (ages 10 and 5). Wondering what are the pros to staying here and are there any "perks" with staying here? Ex:discounts on rides, food, tour?. I've heard the bad!

    Not sure about perks but the kids will enjoy the arcade and circus shows performed daily .$34 Adults/$20 kids all day ride pass at the AdventureDome it includes 3D/4D movies and laser tag included. Don't waste money on concession stand to expensive.…

    The Strip

    Really can't understand these bad reviews. Its like social media and reviews have an agenda against…read morethis property. Its clearly one of the best properties on the strip. Yes, its further down from the chaotic center, but is that a bad thing? For this traveler thats sick of crowds, its a blessing. You can literally walk to Bagelmania, and that famous Mex al pastor taco place, Fountainebleu is right across, wonderful walking areas with an attached mall (ok the stores are whack as fuck but hopefully will be better), their street food court is so innovative and cool, always find some good things to eat here (the fried chicken was my fave, and somewhere had this hong-kong stlye pan wok'd noodles it was very good too.) Never crowded. Great colors and casino layout. The pool is very nice and easily in my top 5 in Las Vegas. The rooms are very modern and clean. Great bar called the Gatsby. Nice Mex Restaurant right when mall area starts near the back of the casino past the Gatsby bar, and a by-the-slice pizza place thats also very good. Wally's restaurant is somewhere I hope to try one day. LOTS of food options, even a buffet type, and an Eggslut-typa breakfast place, forgot the name. Great looking sportsbook and the western-like sportsbar next to it upon entrance both on the left. Theres also a steakhouse in a very bizarre location upper level and waaay to the left, isolated. Lots of places want to try in the future. If anything, it is a massive place when you venture out into the mall part (the convention and private event areas walk and walk and walk, too much empty room here, thats really the only flaw.) I have my top 5 places to stay in Las Vegas: 1) Durango, (this will never change) 2) Fountainebleu 3) Resorts World (a very close 3rd to FB) 4)Wynn (if you can afford without cramming 8 people in one room) 5) Aria If you want a shit show, stay at MGM, Bellagio, Caesars Paris, Flamingo, Planet Hollywood etc.) If you want simplicity and luxury feel without the massive crowds, come here. Resort has Crockford, Hilton, and Conrad for the rich. A regular room at Hilton did us just fine and it was beautiful, lobby smells great.

    Absolutely the worst place to stay in vegas or even hang around. First of all when we went to check…read morein it took forever and the line wasn't moving. Took at least 30mins to even have the line move. Anyways after check in I asked to add an extra night and stay in the same room. I added the extra night through 3rd party website and they confirmed that it's ok to stay in same room but the system didn't update yet so just come back the following morning to pay the resort fee. Which I went to pay in the morning 7/8am. After paying they gave me new room keys so it works for the extra day as well. But tell me why there was no communication between any of the staff and the cleaning crew had came to our room later shortly after I had paid the resort fee and confirmed my extra night. Cleaning lady was rude too we explained to her how we have an extra night and she goes YOU DID??? Like please go speak with other staff before acting like that. To top off this horrible 1 star place we went downstairs to grab dinner at Juniors as it was really packed and looked like good food. Well, we went to the host stand and checked in for the wait. The host Liz told us 5-10 mins and we went off the side to wait. While waiting my friend wanted to go to the casino to play a hand of blackjack. During this time my ID was upstairs in the hotel since I only planned on eating. I stood by the table waiting for my friend to finish. Dealer was super rude and unprofessional rudely asked ID and I told him I'm not playing I'll go back to the side of Juniors waiting for the food table. Anyhow, the dealer had to say "YOU CAN GO PLAY SLOTS BUT THEY WONT PAY YOU IF YOU DONT HAVE YOUR ID" Okay, we get it big guy, I told you IM NOT PLAYING, can we chill I'm literally just trying to enjoy my meal. Then literally that was 5 seconds we return to Juniors and some reason they switched hosts but we were just standing there waiting. No waitlist no number no names. So how do we even know when our table is ready? Liz was extremely rude to us told us you guys left so you have to wait another HOUR after 5 big groups. Horrible experience. She yelled at us with a rude attitude and face. I told her we literally went away for 5 seconds and was waiting for 30+ mins by the side. LIZ then goes I DIDNT SEE YOU!!!! screaming out a bitch face and wanted to fight us. LIZ said that she was told yea we have to serve people in order of the line so whoever is here in front of the stand will get to go in first. Well look she saw our backs turn and left to the side for less than 5 seconds but she never even bothered to let us know we have to wait in front of her face where she can see us to get seated. Well luckily our server Alberto was the best and amazing. He treated us 5/5 perfect props to him. Please give Alberto a raise he was doing his best while it was understaffed with literally just himself, he was literally running from kitchen to tables and cashier to make sure everyone's night was good. I really appreciate Alberto, resorts world please take care of him. Well after our food and some casino plays, my friend and I were trying to get back up to our hotel room but for some reason our card doesn't work for even the elevator. So we had to go to the front desk again to get that fixed. There was a huge line again for check-ins for some reason and it wasn't moving. So we went to the side and told one of the staff members to please update our card since we have a room and the key isn't leading us back up. Again staff was horrible with an attitude, she said yes go wait in that check in line. I don't know how does resorts world even operate. I have a room and already checked in but my room key for some reason doesn't work, why will I stand in line and waste 2 hours of my time just to update the key that was the hotel's error. Well, horrible place I wouldn't be surprised if this hotel/casino does close down. I hope they either train their staff with some manners or hire some new people that don't have the worst attitudes. Therefore, I will not be staying at resorts world ever again, I hope everyone else does not either.

    This is the first time staying here and I am really pleased!…read more The staff at check in and valet are super friendly! The lobby is gorgeous. Lots of Raiders memorabilia. ( I'm a fan....so ) but wait!... the scent as you walk in, very slightly there, and I can't even name it, but it's PERFECT. We got a room facing the strip for the night lights, however the sunrise was the real show stopper. There are some really comfy chairs to sit right at the floor to ceiling window to take it all in ... or you can see it from the comfort of your bed. What was missing was a coffee maker and robes in the room. I like to have a cup when I wake up. We are not big gamblers, more people watchers, so we walked through the casino. I did not notice one cocktail waitress on the floor. Is this a new thing? A few ( and only a few) people had drinks. The bathroom is spacious and has all the things!!! I love a tub in a hotel and this tub is the perfect size and angle to lay your head back for the ultimate soak. There is a tv screen in the mirror for your morning news or music videos.... Or a window shade that can go up or down for privacy or to look directly through the room out to that view I mentioned. Ahhh. If you come, be sure to visit baby cakes ( they're in house sweets shop- conveniently located on your way to the elevators ) for gelato or ultimate baked deliciousness or coffee drinks omg it's dangerous.... Overall, a lovely hotel off the strip ( but close enough) at a great price. We will return!

    I went to M for a concert and was greatly disappointed in the whole experience…read more I understand that M is not entirely responsible for every aspect of the concert experience but there are a few things worth mentioning. I'll start with the parking and the way traffic was directed. For this specific concert it was very confusing, and the lack of signage did not help. Getting out of the parking garage was the most difficult and it took about 30 minutes. Also, when the concert was announced online, there was no mention that it would be held at the pool. So this concert was held by the pool in 107° weather and it was not fun at all. I could be wrong about this, but the band only played 1 hour 20 minutes and I think it's because it was so darn hot. And I was not happy about this at all. If I was overheating being in the audience, I can't even imagine how much hotter it was up on stage with the lights, smoke, leather pants... lol. So in the future, if there is a concert held at the M I would make sure to research and make sure that it's not at the pool in summer. So basically, I paid $175 per ticket to go see a band at the pool totally not worth it especially since they only played less than two hours. For those who wanna know I saw Stone Temple Pilots and unfortunately it was not worth my time or money. After this experience, not only will I probably never go to the M resort to see a concert, but I also will never again go and see Stone Temple Pilots. If you're gonna pay almost $200 per ticket and spend three hours of your time preparing and driving there you gotta at least give me two hours of your time for it to be worth what you're charging. The other thing I want to mention is the security guards and customer service staff weren't very efficient in crowd control. People were just gathering right in front of us who paid $175 for their tickets and it took about 30 minutes to get all these clowns out of the way so the rest of us could enjoy the concert. In my personal opinion this might've been one of the worst concerts I've ever been to and it really left a bad taste in my mouth concerning STP. Sadly I believe STP died the day the original front man died. RIP Scott Weiland. You are greatly missed.

Construction began in 2007, but faced setbacks including the Great Recession and later the COVID-19 pandemic. Knowing its history, I was eager to experience a guest stay. Booking & Check-in:: I booked my room through a travel aggregation website. Upon arrival, the front desk quickly found my reservation. The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The clerk was both friendly and helpful. The main lobby is cavernous, with decor that's simple yet elegant. It creates an impression. Room Quality:: The Fontainebleau Las Vegas opened in 2023; but the room's furniture was well-kept, and free from excessive wear that might hint at heavy use. The carpet looked fresh, with no stains or tears in sight. Regarding the bed, the sheets were crisp and bright white. The mattress, pillows and duvet were comfortable. Bathrooms often show the most wear and tear, but this one was pristine. It was spacious. The layout was well-arranged. The towels looked like new, with a heavy pile and a crisp, bright white color. Sometimes when I travel, I like a room that's comfortable, but not so luxurious it makes me want to stay in all day. Other times, I want a inviting space to relax in, and the rooms here fit that bill perfectly. I found the décor, color palette, and furnishings appealing. I also think many hotel rooms lack sufficient lighting, but here there's plenty of it, along with the option to adjust it to your liking. Common Space:: Although I didn't use them myself, I was surprised to learn while walking the grounds that there are seven swimming pools on the premises. I did, however, enjoy some of the gaming options on site, as well as several of the restaurants.

We have stayed here three times already the first two times we paid for the day and this time we were comped. As we received comped rooms, we were able to check in at the invite guest counter, which was a minute wait versus the regular check-in line. That felt so great as the regular line was wrapped like we were waiting for a ride at Disneyland. Our room was on the 59th floor, room 5927. It was a nice size room, super clean and amazing view of the strip, the sphere and other resorts on the strip. The room was very comfortable with enough amenities that we required for the stay. We self parked and as locals, we received free parking. There were plenty of parking on the second and third floor somewhat close to the entrance to the hotel. We visited the pool with about one hour left, and it was perfect. There was plenty of seats available and we did not have a problem, getting two chairs and plenty of towels that you can grab. The pool was clean we saw multiple lifeguards and a lot of wage assist to help if you want to order anything. On top of an amazing day, I played the slots and one a few hundreds, which was a topper. Another amazing day, will be back.

    First stay at The Venetian -- and definitely not our last…read more This was our first time staying at The Venetian, and overall, we had a really great experience. We were in Las Vegas for a concert at the Sphere, and one of the main reasons we chose to stay here was the convenience. Being able to walk through the resort and get around without relying on Ubers was a huge plus, especially on a busy concert night. Check-in was smooth, the staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming, and our room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. We were also upgraded, which was a very nice surprise. The highlight had to be the view of the Sphere from our room -- absolutely perfect for the concert we were attending. The Venetian is an experience in itself. The resort is massive, beautifully designed, and there's plenty to explore without even having to leave the property. For us, the ability to walk around, grab something to eat or drink, explore the resort, and head to the Sphere without worrying about transportation made the stay that much more enjoyable. We typically stay at MGM properties when we're in Vegas, so trying The Venetian was a change of pace for us. Based on this first experience, I'm glad we gave it a shot. Friendly staff, clean rooms, unexpected upgrade, an incredible Sphere view, and an extremely convenient location for a concert. We'll definitely be back. The Venetian has officially earned another Vegas stay from us.

The best part is it is walking distance to the Sphere, so if you're going to a show at the Sphere, staying here is ideal as it's conveniently located to it. Only con was the price of the parking during your stay.

Out of all the restaurants here, this one is my favorite. And I finally got to visit 1.5 years ago and fulfilled my promise of bringing my buddy here today. Today we got the following during Happy hour: My usual Amber. My buddy's usual IPA. And too many glasses of Double IPA... Onion Rings - Good, but not much quantity. Fried Pickles - Good, and with generous quantities. I did not finish. Lots of breading for both dishes. Brunch is also available. See their website. Atmosphere - Love the huge indoor/outdoor space, see pictures. But both my buddy and I said AC would be nice. My last visit in January '25 was NOT this hot. Plenty of bar, table seating. TVs for entertainment and of course, for sports. Gaming available, but not today. Well I am sure they have gaming if you sat at the bar which we did but still did not play. I love the modern restrooms and the outside sinks, see pictures. Events, Mega Mondays, Trivia Tuesdays, Wine Wednesdays, watch parties, games, live music, extended HH, etc.; see their website. Two stories. 350 capacity. Lots of regulars here, where everyone seems to know everyone. I like this atmosphere, and might make this a regular LV visit for my HH. But again, I really should skip the food... Service - Jo and the new guy were both 5 stars; friendly and efficient. Price - $37 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2019.

The cocktail was tasty. Inside the restaurant the server greeted us warmly and was very friendly. Large fans keep the dining area cool, and there's a TV visible.

We ordered chicken wings and green beans, but the side dish took a long time to arrive. When the food did come, everything was hot and fresh. The chicken wings were especially good -- I recommend the plain, well-done wings; they were spot on. The green beans, however, were disappointing. They arrived later, were soft rather than crisp, and tasted underseasoned -- maybe a little more salt would help. Overall, the place is decent. I would return, but I'm not in a hurry to go back.

Service was fairly friendly and the room was nice. The property has a lot of amenities for both fine dining and more affordable options with the infamous Block 16 for food area. I will say it's a good place to stay if you want to be in all the action of the strip and it also a chique lively atmosphere. But if want a more laid back experience you may want to stay more on the north/south end of the strip or something like Vdara.

    Unsafe balconies beware…read more Per security direct quote: "this happens at least once every three months". My experience at this hotel was extremely concerning because of a serious safety issue with the balcony door. I stepped onto the balcony, and when the door closed behind me, it locked, leaving me trapped outside. It was approximately 110°F. Fortunately, I had my phone with me and was able to call for help. Had I not had my phone, this could have become a dangerous situation very quickly. When I reported the issue to the manager, rather than showing concern, she was condescending and made me feel as though I had somehow caused the problem. I specifically told her that I did not believe another guest should be placed in that room until the balcony door was repaired because it was unsafe. I had paid extra for a room with a balcony, yet I could not safely use it for the remainder of my stay. Because I was traveling for work and had a very demanding schedule, changing rooms at the last minute was also extremely difficult. I just chose not to use the balcony anymorez What bothered me even more was being told that if I filed a formal safety report, they would not be able to refund the additional amount I had paid for the balcony. That placed me in an unacceptable ethical position: either report a legitimate safety hazard so another guest would not be placed at risk, or remain silent in order to receive a refund. Of course, I chose to report the safety issue. After considerable discussion, I was eventually refunded approximately $130 related to the balcony charge. However, the way the situation was handled--particularly the manager's dismissive and condescending attitude--was unacceptable. I would not stay at this hotel again. Even if my work required travel to the same area, I would choose another property.
