The plus and minus side of the hotel are the same, that's why 3 stars. It's small, it's intimate, and that works for and against it. \n\nEasily can walk by your destination because the circle is so small and if you get busy talking, you'll have to back track, or just keep walking the circle! I like the Casino and lobby, didn't really like the joint, and body english is decent. \n\nThe bar is fun, cute intimate bar, a circle of course, plenty of flirty guys. Not this weekend but at another time I sat at an empty table and it  filled up fast once i sat down, so don't be afraid of an empty table! \n\nThe food places are a grill, (forgot the name) nobu, and AGO. I skipped nobu, but ate food at both other places. And both are good. One of the chefs at the grill sent over some sundaes, with a wink. very sweet! I lost my phone at AGO, and the cutey bartender got a flashlight, and on his hands and knees found it for me! Everyone is nice nice nice! \n\nHard Rock has the friendliest, funniest and most accomodating employees. Everyone from the bodyguards to the taxi fetchers are funny and flirty. \n\nIt seems as though there are more men than women there....so girls take note! And they are some friendly bunch of guys. \n\ni didn't stay at the hotel part, but there is security to prevent non-guest from going up to the guest rooms. \n\nInteresting displays of rockabilia, so check those out! Over all, a decent, intimate and interesting off the strip hotel and casino.
