I have a reservation at the Westin Casuarina which is right behind Bally's for the same $109 per night.  It's smaller and quieter but really clean with the great Heavenly beds by Westin! I've stayed there many many nights and always had a great night's sleep. And it's a short 5 minute walk to Bally's. It's a known entity to me, so why change?  :-)

Regards,

> I plan with two other of my OZ Piano tuner colleagues to come to the Las Vegas convention in June. But doing some research on the Bally’s Motel Hotel accommodation, which is offered to  be the place to stay I have found some disturbing opinions of the venue, such as below. There were many similar opinions posted.
> <Bally's is off our list of places to stay in Las Vegas. The first room we got was horrid. The furniture was so beat up it looked like a flop house for drunks. We changed rooms and it wasn't much better. The real problem was the smell. After 20 minutes in the first room my throat hurt so bad I welcomed the smoke in the casino. It was a harsh Clorox type smell and it was throughout the hallway and rooms. Luckily the window of this room could be opened for some relief but it still gave us sore throats and headaches. To top it off we had a dispute at checkout with the rate we were charged. That took at least half an hour to get corrected. We will never return and I would not recommend it to anyone.>
