Frommer's Review
You can't fault the location of this hotel. It's right on the busiest corner of the Strip, smack in the middle of the action. With all the hotel business (the itty-bitty reception desk and tiny sundries/gift-shop counter) set on the fringes of the small, dark, cluttered casino, this is very old Vegas, which is sort of a good thing; but unfortunately, it's becoming harder to wrap one's mind around it in these days of megacasino complexes. Further, as part of the massive Harrah's holdings, its future is somewhat in doubt. Too bad; a nice Strip boutique hotel would be just the ticket and this would provide good bones for one.
The rooms were completely redone to lighten up the formerly dark Victorian affairs they used to be. Regardless of the look, each has an extra corner of space for a couple of chairs or a couch alongside the very cramped bathroom. Beware: The very loud intersection outside can make rooms noisy.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; casino; tour desk; car-rental desk; 24-hr. room service; dry cleaning

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
