Circus Circus - A disappointment

The hotel was a disappointment. The cleanliness was not good and the carpet had food crumbs. The staff was not very nice and some of the casino dealers were rude. We also checked other hotels like Luxor, Excalibur, and New York and they seemed much more lively and hospitable. I think Circus is on a decline and you stay away from it.

Value for your money

This hotel is pretty much at the far north end of the strip, but that's why it's a bit cheaper (most days) and not quite as fancy as some of the bigger hotels on the strip. It's an easy 10-minute walk to the Wynn/Encore resorts, however, and there's also a big shopping center (Fashion Show Mall) across the street from those two hotels, so the location is actually pretty good. It can get to be a madhouse on busy days, but hey, this is Vegas! Overall, I was quite pleased with my stay and felt I got a good value for my money.

Good to sleep

This was a very and I mean very last minute memorial day weekend trip. We booked on Friday so it didn't come with a cheap price. I was reading on yelp all of the really bad, BAD comments on this hotel and I have to admit I was scared to see what it would really be like. It turns out we slept very well. Sorry cant say any good things about the casino area. Bottom Line: Room was clean and fresh Casino was packed with kids Had this ugly vomit smell Poor ventilation in casino No good restaurants to eat must take buss to reach other casinos

not good but it'll do

The hotel was very average. The clientele were more families and budget travelers. I remember having to wait twenty minutes for the elevator one night becuase one of the elevators was broken. Staff was very nice. Overall, would stay here if all other hotels were booked.
