I was charged $160 more for booking through 3rd party site. One whole wall in the room did not have power/electricity and it took them over a day to correct and having to ask multiple times. One tv in the room did not work properly. I told the front desk. It was never fixed during our stay.

Property is great to stay in, room looks over the water. The price is good value for what one gets. It’s an older somewhat dated conference facility, further out on the strip, so quiet. A bit of walking to get to the pool. Parking close to entrances.
