text: This is a totally A-OK hotel. I was here for a convention next door, and it was quite convienent.\n\nFirst the good:\n\n1. The rooms are very large for Las Vegas. They have plenty of room to spread out and a nice, big bathroom. The beds were very comfortable and had these great chenille nap blankets on them. Also, instead of those nasty bed spreads they had down blankets, which is always a huge improvement.\n2. The monorail station is SUPER close to the hotel. At the rest of them, you have to walk 8 miles to get on a freaking train.\n3. Has a \"skywalk\" to the convention center. This may be the longest sky walk in the history of humanity, but that little bit of AC sure is a lifesaver in the middle of the afternoon.\n4. I saw Barry Manilow getting on the elevators one night on my way back from dinner. On second thought, not sure if this a plus or a minus.\n5. What we ironically dubbed \"Asian World.\" Its Disney's Asian pavilion from Epcot stuck into your hotel with the world's largest Benihana. Pretty cool, but also deeply odd.\n\nNeutral Depending on your Opinion:\n1. GIANT Barry Manilow poster on the side of the building, Barry Manilow store inside, ect, ect... you get my point\n2. SO MANY FREAKING LOUD slot machines. So, so many.\n\nNegatives:\n1. Mediocre staff. They don't try very hard, but they don't actively act rude.\n2. Rooms need some updating. While they are large, the carpets, drapes, ect could have used a freshening.\n3. Pool closes at 5 p.m.  How does that make any sense??
