text: I'm a local and decided to take advantage of a Groupon to check out what the Imperial Palace had become. Sadly, this is the single worst hotel experience I've had in Vegas. While the casino floor renovations were pretty, the hotel rooms are still small, cramped and shoddy. The hallways are narrow, random and confusing. There's no staff or clear signs available to direct you anywhere. \nOn top of the taxes, they charged a mandatory $11 \"resort fee\" for Wi-Fi, which didn't even work most of the time. \nAnd then, to top it off, I got a warning on my windshield from property security, asking me to park more considerately... which would be easier if the spots weren't smaller than my compact car. \nThis hotel belongs in the 1970's, not the 21st century.
