I haven't stayed here but a friend did and I got to poke around his room. He just needed a place to lay his head down, and stayed in the Manor rooms. They're no longer pink and circusy everywhere like older reviews warn you about, but they're certainly very low-rent accomodations. With an ocean of pavement between you and the casino, and an unstaffed elevator lobby with all sorts of people coming through at all hours, I wouldn't be comfortable staying here. The casino is sprawling in many ways more out of control than even Caesars, but it's not really that bad. As far as being a vomitorium goes, I'd say this place actually is a bit less grungy than Excalibur, although that place has a far better location. Whether the circus theme and the kids going around sends you for the door or not is up to you. Overall, I was able to spend several hours here and not be offended, but then I like arcades and theme parks and stuff where kids are often part of the package, so YMMV. If you do stay here, at least get a tower and don't book the manor. If you can't afford a tower, go look up Excalibur or see if the IP is having any specials or something. I'm pretty wary of low-end Vegas resorts but I could stay in either of those with the right room and rate, but I couldn't personally feel secure in the manor. I'll go ahead and give the facility on the whole a just below average rating, but if you like your hotels kid free and styled like an LA nightspot, then don't go here. (PS: I didn't see Slots-o-Fun, and never have. Sorry, just too sleazy.)
