The Strat (as they've self branded themselves) is a pretty neat concept. The views are great, the rides look like they could be fun (I only had the nerve to do the controlled jump).

The rooms are a bit dated, and smell heavily of cigarette smoke (despite being non smoking rooms). I was in 3 different rooms (friends) on different floors and in different towers and they all had this issue. Also the ducting and venting allowed you to hear conversations from other rooms. This might actually be a positive, as I found it amusing.

Happy hour in the 107 lounge was a hit otherwise you were paying more for drinks and so-so food then I did at the Bellagio.

I likely wouldn't stay there again unless the price was jaw droppingly good.
