⭐ Star Rating
- Generally rated around 3 to 3.5 stars
- Translation: mid-range, budget-friendly, not luxury—but you’re not sleeping in a ditch either.

- About 3,900+ rooms spread across multiple towers
👉 Reality check:
It’s fun, affordable, and a bit old-school. Not the newest kid on the Strip—but that’s why your wallet won’t cry.
