Negative:  This is one of the older hotels. Stayed in the Mardi Gras tower on the 16th floor. The room was dirty and several things were broken or in need of maintenance. (Hair dryer was broken, drain in shower was clogged, key card reader worked intermittently) Room also needed remodeling.   Cost for Saturday night stay $40- You get what you pay for. Air quality is poor. Casino is very smokey and the air doesn't seem to be filtered. Extra charge for internet access.\n\nPositive: Location is right on the Strip- Almost right in the middle.  Venetian, Mirage, Forum Shops, Treasure Island, etc are all close by. Monorail station is continently located right on site. Free shuttle to Rio, Bally's and Paris. Airport shuttle is $7 per person - Cash Only. Tix4Tonite Box Office is close by in the Casino Royale. Higher tier rooms are of better quality.
