text: My boyfriend and I are Total Rewards members and used our comps to stay at the Rio. Our stay was November 5 to the 10th. I paid $67 for the whole week. I gave 4 stars because this was our first time staying at this hotel and can't compare it to any previous stays there.\n\nWe flew in on the 4th and check-in isn't until 4 p.m. the next day. We decided to try anyway and learned we would have to pay a hundred something for Friday since their cycle doesn't start over till the check-in time. That was okay. I had family living 20 minutes away whose house we could crash at. The young lady who assisted us at the counter was very pleasant.\n\nFast forward to 4 p.m. The young lady that helped us the night before was still working! Poor thing. But it was a gentleman who checked us in and was just as pleasant. We chose not to get an upgrade of a renovated room with a view of the strip. Our suite was in the Masquerade Tower on the eighth floor. It was a pretty large size. After walking taking a tour of the room, I sat down on the bed and realized the pictures on the website did not match what we have. The photos on the website were of the renovated rooms. I couldn't really complain, especially for $67. We still did have a view of the strip, though. (See attached photo). The couch was a little tattered on one corner. The drain in the shower was slow draining. One end of the towel rack on the shower door fell off when I hung a towel, but was easily fixed. TV is old school style. Still, I cannot complain. We were mostly happy with having a refrigerator and the room was clean. Housekeeping did a good job whenever we asked for room service. She even gave us extra shampoo and soap eventhough we weren't really using them. I ordered in-room breakfast and the man who served us was very nice. \n\nI would definately stay here again.
