Rating:  Summary: Gotta' Have It Review: The time this saves you in phone calls and walking around for information is worth the cover price alone. If you love discounts, shows, shopping this is your best resource for the truth about what is worth doing. We got fantastic hotel accomodations and felt like we were in the right place at the right time throughout our stay. I will buy the most recent edition each time I return to Vegas. Yep, we'll absolutely be back!
Rating:  Summary: Very useful, a cut above to be sure. Review: This book was exactly what I was looking for. So many of the tour books out there just list information. This one has critical content and seems to honestly evaluate properties for the things that matter to me. Cleanliness, room size, noise levels, and comparisons to similar or nearby properties.Like the former reviewer, I also wished for greater descriptions of the swimming pool areas. I would take the price information with a grain of salt -- room rates vary so much depending on promotions and availability, it seems worthless to try and even ballpark a figure. One thing I would like to see is, for each hotel, a description of each of the hotel's different room types, using the lingo of that hotel. For example, the MGM Grand has several different types of studios -- a description of the differences between each type of room would be VERY helpful. The author did do this some, but not as thoroughly as I would find useful. Overall though this guide was absolutely way better than others I have seen and well well worth the price.
