I guess I'm used to the PPP sauce and stringy/meling cheese! This place was clean, had teenagers at the register and they were very friendly and courteous. Service was also quick and even had some stickers for the kiddos to stay occupied as we waited. Food: The dough tastes like an earthy wheat nutty flavor. It was good and the kids actually ate the ends from the pizza. Wish we had sauce for dipping. The cheese was not melty, we don't live far, so it was still warm but I guess I was hoping for a sticky cheese falling off the pizza with a little sauce coming off the sides as I took a bite.....nope, the pizza lacked a bit of sauce and some additional flavor would've been great like salt or oregano or tomatoe. Pepperoni was super thin, like we could see through it, would've liked a little more of that as well. The kids were excited to try "healthy pizza" and we had the special with a coupon, so less than $20 for a large 2topping with a side salad. Pizza is meant to be eaten the unhealthy way though!

I am well into hour 3 in the waiting room for an appointment I had for 7 am. As they see everyone who had come in after me, I am getting more irate...this is ridiculous.

Back to their old tricks. On my last two trips, the A/C was not working in either room. As a matter of fact, I only have ever stayed in the "Select" rooms, so these are allegedly the renovated ones. After waiting in line 30+ minutes after 9pm to Check In, I was horrified that my room was the one on the end, next to the vending and ice machine (this is my first stay actually having seen these machines they are so hidden). Anyway, No. The room looked great and the A/C worked and it looked clean except the last filthy low life smoked illegal narcotics in the room. Yep. The drug of choice for low lifes: marijuana. Guess what? I'm allergic! My allergies were ruined for 2 days all because of that. So I had to march all the way down back to the lobby, wait in line again, and had the very nasty Greek lady tell me I should take a non smoking room otherwise they would not switch me again...oh yes they would I stay here every month.. Anyway, the new room did not smell but *everything* that was not bolted down was stolen. No Ash Tray, No Cups, No Bible (and yes I read it especially in Las Vegas). The A/C in the room hardly worked at all, the hallway was cooler. I noticed the floor looked dirty and what initially appeared to be rust around the base of the plastic bath tub. I put 2 and 2 together pretty quickly and figured out that housekeeping did a lousy job or the toilet was simply left overflowed for a few days and never cleaned up hence the stains. IDC if the rooms are either free or next to free but I may just start paying to stay where I play when they don't comp me. I was just here for a job interview that was a complete waste of my time.

In an area of failing and closing restaurants El Gran Taquito is another fail. We had high hopes walking in yesterday as the place was packed with cops and they often know what's a good hole in the wall. I had the combo #1- both the pork and beef were dried out and well below proper temperature. The rice had zero flavor and the beans were grey. My husband had the chile relleno which he declared greasy but pretty good. I think his standards have already plummeted in the two weeks we have lived in the culinary wasteland that is Laveen. Within half an hour of returning home, I was suffering digestive distress. It looks like we'll have to start cooking for ourselves again.
