text: So my buddies and I were celebrating with our buddy Matt by giving him a bachelor party and he found a cheap price per room at the Imperial palace. We thought it would be cool since it's on the middle of the strip across from Caesar's, it's cheap and we at least have a place to stay. The day of arrival, we had to traverse through some construction going on and found our way going through the back entrance. That back entrance was an adventure by itself. \n\nThe ROOMS.... old carpet, old bedding, dim lights, light switches that don't work, the drain was starting to back up in the shower, we couldn't lock the door lock, our balcony was... well just a random balcony with a view of an old stucco wall of the same hotel and the room looked like a motel off the highway.\n\nThe Hotel.... ice machines on our floor didn't work,  the elevator took it's sweet time and never got to our floor when we needed, there was construction going on and it caused traffic jams at the entrance of the hotel, the pool was small for a hotel/casino on the strip, finding the front desk was a real challenge, the hotel atmosphere felt like it was from the 80's, and let's not forget how the hallways smelled so bad.\n\nThis place is cheap for a reason and I now know why I never stayed here the plenty of times I've come to Vegas. If you want a better hotel experience I'd suggest going somewhere else and fork over a little more money. Trust me it'll be worth it. Otherwise if you're just looking for a bed to sleep on and don't care what the place looks like, this is the hotel for you.
