Two days in a row, I could not get a drink from a waitress. The best part of the pool is the view from the room. Instead of tables, you have electronic gambling. The setup reminds me of the food court at a mall. You leave your table with your items and the table will get snapped up. So, if you want to get a drink, you have to walk to the bar and leave your belongings (iPad/laptop) at the table? No way. The closer you might get to the wall, the farther you are from the bar. Good luck finding a table near the monitor wall. It’s a huge room with a bunch of tables, but MANY are reserved already. Disappointingly, what could be the best place to hang for a sports fan, the STN Sports room, has NO SERVICE. The other restaurants look nice but I didn’t venture into the others to assess food or service. Ample portions with coffee in the pot for the table. The Lucky Penny food and staff were wonderful. A+ Weight room is pretty nice for a hotel. And they gave us more towels than we requested. We asked for extra towels, and they were knocking on our door in less than 3 minutes. Carpeting in the room is a bit worn and discolored in traffic areas but not worn through. The rooms are spacious and bed comfortable.
The drive from the airport is fast and getting to the strip is relatively easy if you have a rental car. Yes, the resort is off the path with picturesque views of the mountains.
