My experience here was rather decent though you have to really put into context what you are really getting for your money and the experience you should expect to receive. All the negative reviews really do not do this location justice, as they are mainly slanders of an old casino which has some family elements present. I spent a few nights here taking advantage of a $30.00 a night deal being offered.\n\nThe locations room's have seen a small upgrade in the main tower with modified bathrooms, bedding, and televisions. We stayed here for a total of 4 nights, which were ok until the 3 night when our neighbour took their room over. The connecting wall / door does little to nothing to block the sounds from the other rooms and hallway making for a unpleasurable experience depending on who rooms next to you. However the room was in no way furnished the same way as our other room we had reserved here; meaning, there was a lack of a sitting chair and a floor lamp which our other room did have inside. There are no iceboxes but there is a ice machine on every floor, and the safe located in one of our rooms was permanently locked. House keeping was diligent and serviced our rooms daily, too bad the towels were a little rough... The resort fee includes WiFi which was not too terribly slow, free parking, and access to the outdoor pool. The pool itself has seen better days and lacks any real heating, which makes it a little dissatisfying compared to other hotels on the strip - also the hot tub area is rather poor too.  \n\nWalking around the establishment you will have wished to have dropped LSD to enjoy the insanity of the experience. In no way shape or form should this casino be regarded as anything less than a former glorious dive of a strangely themed casino. Some how playing slots on a spinning carousel does not really hit home with myself, and I found a lot of the \"entertainment\" to be too childish and geared for children.  The tables are cheap and filled with boring dealers who loathe the fact they are working at Circus Circus - maybe if they all had red clown noses the experience for myself would been more pleasurable.\n\nFor the children the second floor of the casino floor has arcade games, prizes, and entertainment for the whole family.The arcade games are nearly all broken and boring, I found myself wondering why I wasted a Dollar on a machine that does not properly work or look like it has been updated in years. \n\nFood selection offered is a joke and I will not write about them except for The Steakhouse which in a Chuck E Cheese's for adult's is the only reputable place to dine on the property. \n\nThis location offers a AVIS rent a center for drop-offs and pick-ups, a Tix 4 Tonight, and a multiple rollercoaster theme park. During October the location becomes horror themed and has been well received from others reviews I've read. \n\nIf this location did not have some the cheapest rooms in town during my stay I would have never considered the Circus Circus as anything more than a jokeish nightmare to stay at for a few days. I can say however that it was not as bad as I initially thought but will never return unless there is a huge revamp and a change of theme. \n\n2 Stars - the location is very cheap and offers unbeatable deals for rooms but at the sacrifice of the style and sophistication most places now represent on the strip.
