Not worth the expense
Pros:

The casino was large with many slots and tables. Shops and restaurants were interesting. Food and drinks at the pool bar was good.

Cons:

Arrived at 6:15 after a long day of flying and our rooms were not ready and we ended up in separate towers even though we requested rooms on the same floor. One pool was closed do to glass, the towel hut was unattended, no towels available. Extremely noisy not peaceful in the pool. The pool closed at 8. My room smelled of smoke even though we asked for nonsmoking rooms. Over priced hotel, pictures on the website are not representative of real hotel.

Horrible customer service, overpriced and very disappointing representation of the Hard Rock brand
Pros:

Close proximity to music venue

Cons:

We arrived.. no valet to meet us at curb… Not told where to park..no greeting at all?
I walked inside and eventually found a valet to help with our bags..he then complained about how little he was payed by Hard Rock the whole time and begged for a tip!
Slow service every time we needed it..Front desk check in.. check out and at pool restaurant…and the room
Cost was outrageously expensive for what was received. A basic room with 1 queen beds for over $1000 is ridiculous. Bathroom had hairs in the shower. We got ID’d (we are 55 years old) for drinks by the pool and did not have passports with us(we are at the pool!) so no relaxing margaritas for my wife. Pool area (and seating) was dirty and towels were old and faded…and we were limited to only one towels each? Why?

And the final FAIL on your part was that you DO NOT OFFER a shuttle to the concert venue next door … so another $40 to be driven across the street!

WOW… incredible fail on multiple levels this time team!

Very disappointing $1500 spent at your venue.
