text: If we were just to talk location, I would give Ballys five stars. Its central to the Strip and walking distance to most of the newer and nicer hotels you'd want to check out. I liked how the room elevators were close to the entrances for easy access to taxis, valet, and shuttles. The moving walkway also takes you directly to the strip. Unlike some of the other hotels, I didn't feel like I was walking miles through some gigantic maze. Checking in and out was quick and relatively painless. Thumbs up.\n\nWe booked rooms in the older South Tower. The rooms were clean and spacious but definitely outdated in terms of not having adequate lighting, old bathroom fixtures, and tiny tube TV. There was also no bathroom exhaust fan to help defog mirrors after showering or air out a room after going number 2 (lol).
