i nicknamed this place \"cowboy casino.\"  i've never seen so many grown men in cowboy hats.  i've been to vegas a number of times and never seen cowboys - i guess they've always been hanging out at south point.  (i later discovered there is an equestrian center and rodeos at this hotel..that would explain it.)\n\nmy boyfriend and i stayed here because we wanted to stay away from the craziness that was the strip on halloween, and we were only visiting for a wedding that was taking place in the residential area of vegas, so it was the perfect location.  however, i was a little disappointed in the hotel.  the rooms were nice enough, but the bathroom was pretty sub-par.  i usually think of vegas bathrooms to have a huge bathtub with a tv somewhere in the bathroom..not here.  the bath tub was tiny, and there was no tv.  there are nice flat screen tvs in each room, but they only have analog channels, so the quality is poor.  seems kind of silly to have such a nice tv and not use it to it's full potential.\n\nthe staff was very nice and accommodating.  i requested an early check in and it was not a problem.\n\nthe casino seemed a little too bright.  if you go to any of the casinos on the strip, the casinos are a little dim.  it sort of adds to the whole allure of las vegas.  it felt like fluorescent lights were shining on the casino in south point - i think it sort of cheapened everything.\n\noh and i saw some little 2 year old baby girl wandering through the casino..i guess the security isn't a strict in this casino as the others..\n\nif you're looking for the typical vegas experience, look for a resort on/closer to the strip.  if you just want a nice place to stay and/or you like rodeos, then south point is the place.
