Our bedroom (king) was very clean, quiet and comfortable. We liked the location and the waterfront is an easy walk away. The breakfast buffet was good and the staff were friendly.
Everything was terrific. The room was great, the breakfast was great, and the staff treated me very well.
Vegas can learn a thing or two about the black out curtains! They were really great!
Clean and quite room. Staff was friendly. Good location right in the middle of sky tower and the pier. Food was great as well that was offered here. In walking distance to lots!
