Advantages: Totally out of this world experience, so much to see and do, great hotels and casinos
Disadvantages: Sleazy in places, a few days isn't long enough to see it all

...Las Vegas is often compared to Blackpool but on a far greater scale - yes there are bright lights and hotels in both resorts the comparison really does stop there. So is Las Vegas all it is cracked up to be? In my opinion nothing could have prepared me for what I saw in my 6 days in Las Vegas - I'd seen all the television programmes raving about it and I'd spoken to many friends and relatives who had been - all spoke very highly of Vegas but all warned us that we wouldn't want more than a couple of days there - I was sure that a fortnight wouldn't be long enough and in my opinion I was right - Las Vegas is so vast that it is impossible to cram everything into a few days - although I did my damned hardest to try!!!

The Monte Carlo is located at the south end of the Las Vegas Strip, near to the more famous MGM Grand and the New York, New York resort casino. Across the street is the ‘Coke Bottle’ which has a half-price ticket booth for shows and tours and the quirky M&M’s world, which is fun for all ages. Check in was easy, there are a large number of check-in agents at reception, and you can checkout automatically via the TV in the room. Staff were courteous and attentive, as I’ve come to expect in America, though... Read review
