text: I stayed at the Rio a couple of weeks ago and it was a decent experience Maybe I am just being harsh because I stayed at the Palazzo a couple months ago and nothing can compare nnOn the positive side the Rio was clean and checkin was prompt They were also accommodating in bringing us extra blankets and towels The pool area looked nice but we were there at the end of the season and only one of the resorts pools was open I could see it being a fun place to hang out in the summernnFor the negative side it is a mile walk to the strip There is a free shuttle that takes you to either Harrahs or Ballys but it only runs every minutes or so until am The room was a decent size but being advertised as an allsuite hotel I guess I expected more nnOne thing that I found odd was the window from the shower to the bedroom This would be fine with your significant other but when staying with a group of friends it is a little strange and potentially awkward
