text: With Kids I have been to the Gnugget with boys only and as a year old I am always thinking of my kids When I saw the pool area I thought about my kids The pool area contains an aquarium that contains multiple sharks huge tuna manta rays etc It also has a slide that goes through the middle of the aquarium You can swim right up against the glass and the show is spectacular The aquarium alone is the main reason we chose to stay at the GNugget for our first major summer vacannHowever popularity has it is draw backs The pool water does not open until a but the lounge chairs area opens at am That means at am there are people who come down and lay their items to hold chairs until am and that is BS Who says you can come down with your stinking shoes magazines and hats and hold a chair for hours F you get your fat ass up and get down there There is a sign that states that holding chairs is not allowed however not enforced There is a security guard making sure it is hotel guests only but he does not enforce the holding of chairs Get down early and wait for minutes like I did with a grumpy year old and explain why although only feet away we cannot get in the water until am The rest of us normal members of society are down herennThe local cafe was adequate for bkfast there are multiple Starbuck stands the buffet just ok for lunch nothing spectacular At for adults and it was pricey for what we gotnnOther than the pool and Fremont Experience there is really nothing for kids There is a small arcade for the teens but it is small The majority of our trip besides a jaunt to the strip was at the Nuggets awesome pool area We were able to order an adequate take out lunch and at our chairs with a tight knit lounge chair area but plenty of water to keep us cool Again get down early and stake out a space There is also plenty of shade and couch areas for anyone who does not want any sun at allnnWe stayed as part of a special offer that allowed an upgrade to a Jr Suite It had a little couch area that doubled as the teens bed with sheets and a blanket The three of us shared the ultra comfortable King as my fat ass my year old and my petite wife shared with ease The down pillows and comforter alone are worth the price It turned out to be a night for SunTues Try to make a weekday happen it is so worth the effort as opposed to FriSun The traffic coming back on Sunday looked rough in the other direction and we were arriving in Vegas around pm nnOverall excellent experience
