This hotel has many vacation and recreational attractions,
including: waterfalls, casino, spa, pools & kiddie pools,
sunning decks, Easy River water ride, wave pool with
cascades, lighted tennis courts, health spa (with workout
equipment, whirlpool, sauna, ...), arcade virtual reality
game rooms, nightly shows, snack bars, a number of
restaurants, shopping area, bars, ... Many of these
attractions are open 24 hours a day and most are suitable for
families and children. The negotiated hotel's room rate
for conference attendees is very reasonable (79USD + tax)
per night (no extra charge for double occupancy) for the
duration of the conference.
The hotel is within walking distance from most other
Las Vegas attractions (major shopping areas, recreational
destinations, fine dining and night clubs, free street
