Great location a block from the strip, easy to walk to Planet Hollywood, Paris, and Horse Shoe. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, with suggestions on shows and even cheap places to eat and drink. We did not drive, but there always appeared to be parking spots available. The only blemish was a complete lockdown of the hotel and surrounding area on Sunday morning due to a shooting behind the hotel, meant that I could not get any bets down or watch the NFL games until it was lifted. While the hotel had no control over this and safety should be the top priority, this is a major drawback when staying in a hotel without a casino. On the other hand, it was very nice not to have to pay some of those outlandish resort fees! I would stay here again.
