Nevada
The Riviera – Las Vegas, NV
The worst Hotel and the rudest staff I have ever experienced. Stood in line for over 1 hour to check in. Requested a smoking room- was given non-smoking. They made me stand in line AGAIN to get a smoking room. Then, the new room they assigned me was an occupied room. Had to wait AGAIN. Spoke to the manager and the staff was rude and never even apologized for the inconvienence.
Mandalay Bay – Las Vegas, NV
My husband and I stayed here one night, and one night only. We had reserved and paid for a room near the top floor with a king size bed. When we got to the hotel, we were told all rooms were full, and that the room we had reserved was not going to be vacant because the current occupants decided they were going to stay longer.
Luxor – Las Vegas, NV
This was my first time out to Las Vegas. The Luxor is beautiful. The registration lady offered us an upgrade, which we didn’t take b/c we barely spent anytime in the room anyways, and offered us the towers or the pyramids. This I found very nice, that they would offer us a variety of room choices. Our room was nice, and the bathroom spectacular (I took a nice warm bath in our tub). We always came back to a clean room and fresh towels. However, in the casino, we didn’t win much and you had to specifically look for a spot where you saw a waitress to actually be served drinks. Most of the waitresses seemed to stick around the high rollers.
Fairfield Grand Desert Resort – Las Vegas, NV
We stayed at the Fairfield Grand Desert Resort. It was really HOT! 100 to 115 degrees the whole week. We were one of the first to stay (2001) at this beautiful new resort. This was the grand opening week but it was just a soft opening since it was not 100% complete yet. They had 70 check-ins on Sat. and 20 check-ins on Sunday.
It is very nice and we really enjoyed our stay.
CircusCircus – Las Vegas, NV
CircusCircus is one of the best hotels in Las Vegas. It is right on the Strip, near the Sahara Hotel, which also is near walking distance to Ceasers Palace. CircusCircus is so huge, that they have busses and a monorail that takes you from one part of the hotel to the other. If you go, I suggest that you go to the CircusCircus buffet. They have the Largest serving plates in the world!
