Being my first trip to Las Vegas, I was a little apprehensive about staying off of the Strip. Boy was I wrong. The Silverton was great! \r
\r
First off, the atmosphere of the place is astounding. The lodge feel is something you really can?t find on the Strip. The Casino itself is fairly large and has plenty of excellent gaming options. There is a gigantic Bass Pro Shop attached to the casino that would take literally all day to browse through. \r
\r
Something else I found really entertaining was the Silverton?s aquarium. I very much enjoyed sipping on an ice-cold beer inside the Mermaid Lounge while watching all the fish and aquatic life swim about in the aquarium. \r
\r
The room was immaculate. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in and gave me an excellent chance to really rest up for a big day out and about. \r
\r
Speaking of out and about, even though the Silverton is off Strip, it is not far at all. It is just right down the highway from Mandalay bay, so exploring the normal sights is only seconds away!\r
\r
Lastly, the dining options are endless. I really enjoyed the Mexican place, Mi Casa. The atmosphere was very lively and menu out of this world. Following dinner, I enjoyed a few margaritas at the bar.\r
\r
I would recommend the Silverton to anyone visiting Las Vegas. It really is a hidden gem in my book!\r
Pros: Great service, value, entertainment and location
Cons: N/A
