Flamingo, Bally's, Harrah's or IP

Just got my May offers in the mail....have only stayed at Flamingo in a regular room....not impressed......





For FREE which one would you choose.......Flamingo, Bally%26#39;s, Harrah%26#39;s or IP?





Pool is important....not for the looks or size but crowd wise....Don%26#39;t want to be too crowded at the pool, prefer one that is less busy....





Thoughts????



Flamingo, Bally's, Harrah's or IP


Flamingo%26#39;s room are horrible. I willnot stay at that hotel regardless of how nice the pool is. I had a dirty room, and a horrible stay during my one stay at the Flamingo. I have stayed at Harrahs. Not sure on the pool too be honest. My vote actually goes to Paris via the offer you just received. Good pool and good hotel.



Flamingo, Bally's, Harrah's or IP


I would say Bally%26#39;s, we stayed there in Jan and loved it. Our room was comped but they gave us a huge room in the north tower, it was very nice with a nice bathroom and everything was very clean. Loved that Ballys is connected to Paris. All the employees we delt with were wonderful and loved how easy it is to navigate the hotel and casino. I would definitely stay there again. The pool area looked okay but really didn%26#39;t pay that much attention, it was cold when we were there.





Whatever you decide, have a wonderful trip.




Bingokitty: I%26#39;d pick Ballys. stayed there in October; staying there again in April. 37 days and counting lol. Can%26#39;t comment on pool; we live in Florida with two pools close by our condo unit. It looks clean and never looked too busy. Food choices are plentiful , the inner walkway connection to Paris opens up another casino , the center strip location is untouchable. We were Aladdin/Planet Hollywood regulars (5 visits) and were a little leery because the casino is smallish. We were comped and requested a North Tower room and it was huge, clean and quiet. Elevators came right away, every time day or night. Room keys worked first time, every time. Never had to ask for extra tissues, toiletries; room was always mystically cleaned while we were out. Frankly gambled a lot at Flamingo, but used players card points towards our room charges. I tend to judge a hotel by the common area bathrooms. Need I say more about Flamingo and Imperial Palace. People on this forum tend to complain quite a bit that Harrahs is noisy due to the Carnival Court music. Lastly, of the four choices, Ballys is rated highest on this site, as far as rankings go. We stay Monday thru Saturday and were checked in to a North Tower room so fast, I didn%26#39;t have time to get my itinerary back in my carryon. One small down side is the $3 a day safe fee. Also the 24 hour restaurant is only open 24 hours on Friday and Saturday. Sunday through Thursday they are open from 7am (I think ) til 3pm.




Hi bingo, Ip%26#39;s pool is %26#39;arguably%26#39; one of the worst in Vegas or should I say not very appealing to party at. Harrahs is just a simple Olympic size square high school pool, nothing fancy. When I was there it was not crowded but there is not a lot of hanging out space. You already have your opinion of Flamingo. I have never stayed at Bally%26#39;s but I know of 3 different families friends that just love the place. In my opinion Harrahs or Bally%26#39;s. Post again, and ask strictly, Harrahs pool or Bally%26#39;s pool . That will narrow it down. They are both highly regarded hotels. Good Luck in deciding.




Whenever I look out from my room at the Flamingo I never see anyone in the IP pool, if that helps you at all.




Hey Sage, Another Chicago local. Do you ever wonder why there is very few people at IP%26#39;s pool? I don%26#39;t think I have to say anymore. I%26#39;ll be there again in July and my son and I will be playing Pong at IP but staying at Orleans. Bingo, again, post again for pool advice.




Sorry bingo, I need to clarify, post Bally%26#39;s pool, Harrah%26#39;s pool or IP%26#39;s pool.




Hey chichips- I was just answering as to what was important per the post. Don%26#39;t want to be in a crowded pool, doesn%26#39;t care the size or looks of it. Every time I%26#39;ve looked out the window at the IP pool it fits all of those requirements. I personally would stay at Ballys or Harrahs since bingokitty doesn%26#39;t like the Flamingo.




I wouldn%26#39;t choose any of them, free or not.



That should not inlfuence you - don%26#39;t ask us what we would do - gives us your priorities and ask what fits them best.



since your priority is a pool that isn;t too crowded and not The Flam since you don%26#39;t like the rooms (neither do I) I%26#39;m not sure you%26#39;ll like any of the other 3, none have great rooms - the pool is an unknown as far as crowds, all depends on capacity.



Of the 3 remaining the one most likely to fill your needs is probably Bally%26#39;s, don;t expect to be impressed, but you know that, so it%26#39;s fine.




They are MUCH better rooms since you are not there bridgy.





Obviously the poster has free rooms at one of these properties based on their offer.





SO WHY DO YOU ANSWER WITH YOUR STANDARD ';I HATE HARRAHS';???????????





This forum will be a much better place when you move on. So please do it sooner than later. I am sure your grandkids would love the money.
