NOT bad.
Pros:

Relatively easy to find. I think it's weird for them to charge parking in windsor of all places $19 beside hotel and $10 to park in garage a block away. Parking spaces small and not many available near the hotel.

Room was relatively quiet and clean. Some of the lights in the room did not work. They were nice enough to waive the park fee because of this. Staff friendly

Elevator extremely slow and small. Breakfast was surprisingly good and included with the stay.

Compared to Ceasars - rooms bigger there and free parking (more room there too), but ceasars does not have free breakfast. Not sure where i will stay next time

Pros:

Great location by the waterfront and walking distance from other activities, walked to a Souvenir shop, two different bars, Caesar Palace Casino, etc.

Cons:

Parking was very confusing, I accidentally paid for parking with the parking lot that’s right in front of the hotel, but the hotel parking is actually in the back of the hotel, which you still have to pay for per day. I did mention this to the hotel staff and was able to get everything situated, and they waved my parking fee since I had already paid.

Also room was very nice but congested for four people, didn’t have much space to maneuver around. Saw a huge spider by our TV so that did throw my comfort level off, but my son was able to get it and we didn’t see anything else after that.
