text: Stayed here in a Deluxe Room on 11/30/12-12/2/12.\n\nArrival/Check-In: Easy to access the hotel from Las Vegas Blvd. and Spring Mountain. Only downside was the horribly designed parking structure and the long walk to the check in counter. There was complimentary early check-in that day (10am!) which was cool! Check in took about 15 minutes around 2:30pm.\n\nPrice: Got a great deal here for about $180 for 2 nights on Vegas.com (plus 2 free buffets). Added on was a $25/night resort fee and subtracted was a $15 Vegas.com discount code, bringing my 2-night total to a very reasonable $215.\n\nThe $25/night resort fee is high, even for Vegas, but I found it to be bearable. Includes wi-fi, fitness center access, newspaper, printing/calling/faxes, 2-for-1 on cocktails and buffet (M-F only), and $20 for a future visit.\n\nLocation: Great for what my girlfriend and I had planned: A Friday night trip to Surrender and touring around the north end of the strip. There is a free tram to the Mirage and a crosswalks right by the hotel, making the north end of the strip entirely walkable. Although the hotel lacks a major worthwhile attraction aside from Cirque du Soleil's Mystere show, its proximity to places like Wynn/Encore's clubs or Venetian's shops makes up for it - all at a fraction of the cost.\n\nHotel: Well laid out. Easy and to find your way around and quick elevators up to your room (they're divided up, so my 26th floor room elevator was for floors 25-30, plus the spa and ballroom floors). The hotel itself is not flashy like the ones surrounding it, but it's still very nice and made me feel comfortable. \n\nRoom: I loved the room! Clean, luxurious, and very functional. The beds were amazing and left me ready and energized the next day following 2 long nights out. Bonuses included was a small refrigerator (no minibar crap inside), safe, a lot of counter space, and an ironing board/iron. The bathroom was contemporary and luxurious as well, featuring a makeup mirror, a well-built bath tub, and toiletries from their in-house spa.\n\nGambling: Came up $25 on 5cent slots! hahaha\n\nFood: Ate at the TI buffet. Middle of the road, but hey, with a free pass or the included 2-for-1 it's worth a quick meal. Did not get a chance to check out the other places. My girlfriend ordered a drink from the Starbucks inside the hotel - skip this one and try the one on the strip instead.\n\nAmenities: Did not take advantage of these aside from the wi-fi, unfortunately. If I had more time I would have liked to check out the fitness center. The Sirens of TI did not interest me (The Yelp gods warned me it was not worth my time).\n\nCheck out: Fast and easy via TV. Late check out was granted to me so that was cool.\n\nOverall: I had a wonderful time at TI. I got a tremendous deal but my stay was so good that I would not hesitate to stay here again even if I had to pay a little more. The comfortable rooms were just what I was looking for and its location on the strip should make for quite an appeal to those who want to go out and have someplace nice to come back to. \n\nI will be coming back here in the future, hopefully to catch Mystere. My trip to TI was definitely one to be treasured. Great value, great rooms, great location, and a very pleasant stay. 4/5.
