 Any complaints?  Only that the pool itself is only 3ft deep and it closes at 7pm!!!!!  This is Las Vegas and it is HOT.  I don’t understand how a 3 ft. pool that closes early could be beneficial to a hotel.  I’d sit out there all night!  Hmm, maybe that’s the problem.  We’d all be out by the pool instead of in the casinos!
