Default Paradise Beach Resort & Casino a good hotel?

Looked up lots of reviews of it and lots of good value for the money comments, but some horror stories. Can anyone give me the real story?

A friend of mine and I are looking to visit there for two weeks right after christmas.

Thanks,
Phil

I think its a 3-3 1/2 star at best. Its really what you make of it. Just try to not to get a loft room, they are terribly small.

The Paradise is okay.
It used to be much better when the Crazy Moon was hopping but now it is a dead zone.

Default Trip reports....

For every "best time of my life" review their will be 2 that sh!tcan a place because they didn't have bottled water in the room or (God forbid) they had to walk 50ft. to get a drink from the bar. Go, have a great time and when you get back- write a trip report.

I stayed there twice and had a good time, rooms were clean and food was good for an AI. It's not a fancy hotel but it works.
I agree no loft room, make sure they don't try to give you one they are horrible. I saw them try to give some girls the room and I told them not to take it. I got out of it myself on one of my trips
Or when you book make sure you don't book a loft room I did that on my second stay there and it was much better. It was a spacious room.

If your not a picky person you'll be fine it is a 31/2 star or 3 star really.

I always leave the resort to explore the city, make sure you tour around POP it's fun!!

You'll just have to judge the resort for yourself but I think you'll be fine

Have fun, I always do hee hee
