Hotel Review: Embassy Suites at the LVCC (aka A Gamer In A Non-Gaming World) – Part II

If you caught part one of our review of the Embassy Suites at the LVCC you saw a little bit of everything. Interesting decor, a spacious room, a just removed location, and a hotel with not a single gaming fixture throughout. But as I know you’re avid readers of our reviews, I’ll spare you the […]
Las Vegas | Update: Recent Changes at Mirage

Mirage Las Vegas Finds New (Yet Old) Ground Don’t be fooled by the article’s headline.

Hotel Review | MGM SKYLOFTS Las Vegas 2.0

The MGM Skylofts are one of my favorite places to stay. Here’s an update of our last review : There are four types of rooms.

Hotel Review: Embassy Suites at the LVCC (aka A Gamer In A Non-Gaming World) – Part I

Hotel Review | The Cosmopolitan Lanai Suite – Part II

The Cosmopolitan Lanai Suite The Cosmopolitan has always sold itself on being curious, outside the box, or “just the right amount of wrong”. (I apologize in advance for putting any of their commercial songs in your head.) And as we saw in part I of my review, the Lanai suites at the Cosmopolitan blend the […]
