Rude Assistant Manager at the Hotel - Room was extremely dirty and worn - so bad I was having an allergic reaction that's how bad it was and I wanted a refund - no such luck. I booked through tripres.com and that made it even worse as they won't refund either - so basically out the 50.00 and left with a scary memory of an extremely rude assistant manager who left me in tears as I was leaving the hotel.

On a better note - got a gorgeous room at the Aladdin for 89 with a full view of the lake at Bellagio and got to see the water show from our room. What a difference - and right on the strip too! Plus they give you 20.00 free to gamble and some coupons - so with what I won on that 20.00 - it covered the 50 hotel room loss!

Never EVER Again will I stay at Palace Station - that place is the absolute worst I have ever seen.

I enjoyed my stay at the Palace Station. I stayed in one of the courtyard rooms that had a view of the parking garage, but beyond that I was pleased. The room was very clean and looked recently redone and well kept up. The bathroom has only a shower which is no problem for me, although I was concerned by past comments here about the shower head not being high enough for taller people, it was a couple of inches above my 5'9" but I could see how a 6"4" might be inconvenienced.
Both pool areas was very clean and attractive. I enjoyed the casino especially the low table limits. I loved that there was a Starbucks on site. The in room internet access was speedy and relatively easy to use, but not a bargain at $10.99/day.

As for the restaurants, breakfasts at the Grand Cafe were excellently done and priced. There was a great steak and egg special for 4.99, but only from 11pm to 6am, I was up late enough to take advantage of it. The food at the onsite Grand Cafe and mexican restaurant Guardalajara were both excellent, the food at the the onsite Chang's was just average.

If I could change some things. First would be no hidden charges - as others have mentioned - upon checking in there was a $4.95 daily charge added to my stay on top of what I had already paid. Make the shower curtains in the bathroom translucent or have some more lighting in the bathroom, the shower got kind of dark with the shower curtain drawn. The internet access is way overpriced.

My group stayed at the Palace station in May and we were all very satisfied. If you are looking for quality of a 5 star hotel please do not stay here.

Staff: They were all friendly and very helpful.
Restaurants: Food was good we found the breakfast at the 24 hr cafe the best.
Rooms: Were clean nice, we were in the courtyard rooms. The pools are fine.

Overall: We were looking for a nice cheap getaway and got it. The hotel is nice and clean. The shuttle service is great. We NEVER had a problem. It picked us up at the airport and dropped us off. It was always on time and they made room to fit people, but do line up early to ensue a seat. If you are looking for the quality of the Bellagio please book there because you will not be satisfied here.

My next trip to Vegas I plan to return to the Palace Station!
