One last BAD idea...
Royal Vacation Suites is an RCI property which is about a 5 minute walk from the Wynn on Convention Center Drive.
The only problem is it's basically a toilet.
Good luck.
A Toilet??? What are you basing your opinion on?? Have you actually stayed at this location??
My wife and I stayed there a couple of months ago. The walk is actually a little longer than 5 minutes, especially since the sidewalk was closed due to Encore construction.
We found the Royal Resort (aka Royal Vacation Suites) to be pretty nice.
I knew, when I exchanged for the unit, that it was going to be a basic hotel room, there is no kitchen. It did have a microwave and a medium size refrigerator. It was clean and everything worked just fine.
We found the people to be very nice, and while the pool wasnt large, it also wasnt very busy. My only complaint was that the hot tub was being remodeled and was unavailable. They have 4 or 5 cabanas that you can use (first come first serve) We spent time at the pool on Saturday and Sunday, and there was always a cabana open if we wanted one.
We also had a great time at the lobby bar, the bartenders were very friendly and went the extra mile to make us happy. Also the drink prices were decent. Unlike alot of other bars on the strip.
It was also nice having a small restaraunt on sight. We could alway get a seat right away, and found the food very good. We even ordered hot wings and pizza, which they brought over to the bar while we watched the football game.
There is a walgreens on the corner, about 5 minutes away.
And you are 5 minutes from the famous Peppermill.
I think classifying this place as a toilet is a little harsh. I have stayed at alot of different places over the last 10 years, both downtown and on the strip.
That includes the old Westward Ho, Las Vegas Club, Fitzgeralds, Riviera, Stardust, Tropicana, and the Wynn.
I would rate the Royal Resort as being better than the Stardust, or Tropicana.
