I stayed here for 4th of July weekend, arrived July 4th-July 7th.  We got valet service along with baggage service  both pretty quick.  We arrived early so we ate at the beach cafe.  Not a bad lunch menu.  Moderately priced.   We came back to check in and the regular line was though the casino and the HHonors line was short.  Luckily I had the HHonors which only took 10 mins to check in.\nSo we stayed in the paradise tower.  \nCONS:\nOur toilet stopped working that same night.  We had to call maintenance twice!  The plumber finally came and fixed it fairly quick.  Our A/C never got below 74.  Which was torture.  The water for the tube was warm but once you turned on the shower it was cold and took a while to get warm.  The vent in the bathroom was full of dust, it even leaked on our toilet.  One of the closet doors kept coming of the track.  Wish each room had a refrigerator. \nPROS:\nWe had a view of the strip.  The TV was a flat screen, they do have Ihome clock/radios. I liked the shutters.  Each room has two complementary bottles of water. Smelled clean.\nThis is the second time we stayed.  What drew me back the second time was the smell of the casino it doesn't smell like smoke, it has a sweet smell. You can see the renovations in the casino.  Looks fantastic!  One draw back is they don't have poker.  Staff was very friendly, never had a problem with staff.  We went to the laugh factory good line up of comedians.  My first experience we didn't have any problems with the room except the tube wasn't sealed correctly and the water was leaking in the wall. My buddy stayed there and had the brand new renovated Bungalows, not an issue.  It seems like all there rooms are not renovated.  What I don't like is the resort fees.  Seems like more and more Las Vegas Hotels are adding them to the bill.   I don't think I'll come back again.  This isn't a four star resort.
