In the future if we stay downtown we would definitely chose the Golden Nugget but probably stay in the Gold Club room and pass on the Rush Tower unless the prices were crazy between the too. Overall our second visit was a very pleasant experience again. The one thing we noticed at most casinos was the kids this year hanging out, Serveral youngsters were helping their father play video pokier in the Golden Nugget Casino, what a shame and where was security. Pool is great but yes crowded with kids so we skipped this year no big deal for us. Did not eat at any of the on site restaurants this year but heard good things from other folks. We play video poker and the selection was not great but 21 and craps tables were great fun. Casino has a good vibe with very good cocktail service.

Golden Nuggets staff was always pleasant, very helpful and they would stop and talk a minute with you. Maid service was preformed efficiently everyday with plenty of towels and toiletries. The room overall was comfortable, very clean and as quiet as any hotel room can be except for the occasional slam of a door or loud people talking as they walked down the hall past our room. I know we could have called and possibly got an extension cord or something. I had to pull out the night stand and unplug the clock no big deal since we really didn't use the clock or the built in Ipod player but an extra outlet or adapter would have been nice. The only issue for us that was mentioned in other post to was the lack of electrical outlets near the bed if anyone else has a CPAP machine. We did that the second day and there after so really not a problem. The reports of the slippery bathtub are very true but there was a rubber mat that I suggest everyone use. We did miss a TV in there the Gold Club bathroom had a tv in the mirror and very cool. The room was very similar to the the Gold Club room in color, decorations and furniture but with a much larger bathroom with a separate water closest. It was not a great view but staying downtown we understood there are not a lot of great views although last year we overlooked the pool which was nice. We stayed in room 8220 looking out over the parking deck and the far off strip. The check in area and elevators are off the beaten path so it was always less crowed and a quiet area. We arrived Saturday at 2 o'clock to an empty check in counter and were warmly greeted and helped by JP. This year we stayed in the new Rush Tower. This was our second visit to the Golden Nugget.
