Traveled with children

We quickly tired of the constant badgering to buy drinks, merchandise, etc. You have to walk through the spa (more selling) to get to the gym. Through the casino or gift shops to get to most anywhere.

For dinner there was a minimum 30 minute wait for a party of four at Taste and the Manhatten Room; yes we tried a different time every night. We felt that this was designed to get us to make reservations at a specialty restaurant. Yes we received drink vouchers, frankly we were ready for dinner and just wanted to be seated. Plus we could not count on dinner timing vs. show times.

Larger parties had reservations and waltzed right in to Taste and Manhatten at their appointed time while we waited. Service was efficient, impersonal and brisk. Dinner one night took over 40 minutes to arrive. Restaurants were very noisy with service noise. When we went to the buffet for dinner, it was quite limited. Did not appreciate this manipulation at all.
