It was our first time in Las Vegas so we wanted a hotel that was centrally located. The hotel was very nice, comfortable and the staff was helpful. We walked up and down Las Vegas Boulevard looking at casinos, the sights and we saw a couple of shows. We found that the Monte Carlo was perfect for us because it had a restaurant, entertainment, beautiful decor, and the price was not too steep. I would stay there again and we recommended it to our friends.
