Location
Tropicana Laughlin boasts a prime location that appeals to many guests for a variety of reasons. Centrally located, the hotel is praised for being within walking distance to other casinos, concert venues and various dining options, including the popular In-N-Out Burger. Many reviewers highlight the convenience of the location, noting its proximity to the river and entertainment venues, making it a good spot for leisure travelers and those attending events. Despite not being directly on the river, its central placement in Laughlin allows easy access to nearby attractions and activities, which guests find appealing. While some mention the extensive walking required within the hotel and certain logistical inconveniences for the elderly or handicapped, the overall sentiment regards Tropicana Laughlin as a well-situated and accessible base for exploring the area.

Breakfast
Tropicana Laughlin offers a mix of experiences when it comes to breakfast options. Many guests have found their breakfast to be good with consistent praise for the food quality and service. Standout mentions include the breakfast at Carnegie's Cafe, which opens early and is frequently highlighted for its excellence. The poolside Cafe also garners positive feedback for its consistently good coffee and pleasant environment.

However, some guests have remarked on limited food choices and noted that the overall restaurant selection within the casino hotel is not extensive. Pricing is another point of contention with some visitors finding the meals to be somewhat overpriced for what is offered. Additionally, a number of reviews mention the absence of a breakfast buffet and the lack of complimentary breakfast, which seems to be a recurring disappointment, especially for those accustomed to such amenities.

While some guests opted to dine elsewhere or skipped breakfast entirely, those who did try the Tropicana’s morning offerings often left satisfied and pleased with their meals. Despite the areas for improvement, many agree that the breakfast experience, especially at Carnegie's Cafe, is generally enjoyable and fulfilling.

Dinner
Tropicana Laughlin offers a varied dining experience with highlights including the attentive service at the bar and the good food at the restaurants. Regular patrons appreciate the enticing menu and diverse, well-priced options. The Brew Brothers restaurant stands out with great food and service, though it sometimes faces staffing challenges, particularly on busy weekends. Carnegie Cafe and the cafe downstairs also receive positive mentions for their quality food and enjoyable atmosphere.

However, there are noticeable drawbacks. Some guests found the food to be mediocre or overpriced and a few experienced poor quality meals. The limited dining options, especially during weekdays or off-peak days, were a common critique. Several visitors were disappointed by the absence of a buffet and room service and the long walk to dining areas was inconvenient for some. Despite these issues, the hotels' restaurants generally provide a satisfactory dining experience with particular praise for breakfast and dinner menus.

Rooms
The rooms at Tropicana Laughlin have received mixed feedback from guests. Positively, many visitors appreciated the cleanliness of the rooms and bathrooms, describing them as clean, spacious and comfortable. Some guests also highlighted the convenience of easy check-in and check-out processes, the large size of the rooms and their proximity to the elevator and parking areas. The comfortable beds and basic amenities were also noted favorably.

However, several reviews mentioned that the rooms felt outdated and in need of significant updates with some reporting broken furniture, outdated televisions, poor lighting and lack of modern conveniences such as refrigerators, microwaves and sufficient electrical outlets. The rooms sometimes exuded unpleasant odors and issues like cigarette smells, spider sightings and general uncleanliness were reported by multiple guests. Maintenance issues including toilets not functioning properly, slow-draining sinks and air conditioning problems were also common concerns.

Despite some negative feedback, guests who were satisfied appreciated the comfortable and spacious nature of the rooms and felt that their expectations were met, particularly given the value for money. Overall, while there are clear areas needing improvement, guests who had positive experiences found the rooms adequate for their needs.

Beds
The beds at Tropicana Laughlin have garnered a mix of reviews from guests. Many visitors appreciated the comfort, describing the beds as comfortable or very comfortable with some even highlighting their unexpectedly cozy sleep experiences. However, others found the beds to be quite the opposite, dealing with issues like being too soft, too firm or uncomfortably saggy.

A significant number of guests mentioned dissatisfaction with the pillows, frequently describing them as flat, too soft, lumpy or lacking support. Some guests noted that the beds were old or worn out and there were occasional comments about bedsheets being dirty or beds feeling stiff and causing discomfort. Despite these varied experiences, others found the accommodations clean, comfortable and spacious, reflecting a range of experiences regarding the room amenities and overall bed comfort.

Cleanliness
Tropicana Laughlin presents a mixed bag when it comes to cleanliness, based on guest reviews. The hotel's cleanliness has been highlighted positively with numerous guests noting that rooms and bathrooms were clean, comfortable and spacious. Some even found the property cleaner than expected with clean linens and modern rooms and appreciated the quiet atmosphere.

However, there's a significant contrast in opinions. Many guests encountered dirty carpets, dusty surfaces and poorly maintained bathrooms. Frequent complaints included old and dingy carpets, hair and stains in the bathrooms and dust accumulation on furniture. Some reported a lack of regular housekeeping with no room cleaning during multi-day stays and essential amenities like towels and soap often missing. Additionally, signs of aging were evident with outdated and worn-out furniture and facilities contributing to a general sense of neglect.

Despite these issues, there were pockets of satisfaction, particularly with areas like the very clean pool and specific rooms that met cleanliness standards. Still, the inconsistency and occasional extreme lapses in upkeep, such as dirty bathrooms and carpets, left a considerable number of guests dissatisfied. The prevalent cigarette smoke smell, even in non-smoking areas, added to the discomfort for some visitors. The housekeeping and maintenance efforts at times were efficient and responsive, but overall, there is a clear need for more consistent cleaning protocols and updates to the facilities to meet guests' expectations comprehensively.

Staff
The reviews for the Tropicana Laughlin overwhelmingly highlighted the commendable efforts of the hotel's staff. Multiple guests praised the bartenders and restaurant staff for their attentiveness and friendliness, making their dining experiences pleasant. The front desk personnel generally received high marks for being courteous, professional and efficient with particular mentions of exemplary service during check-in and check-out processes.

Security staff were noted for their helpfulness and the bell desk was recognized for ensuring a smooth check-in experience. Many reviewers appreciated the housekeeping staff for being accommodating and performing their duties well, although there were occasional mentions of missed service.

Some standout staff members, like Don and Emma, were highlighted for their exceptional friendliness and professionalism. The overall atmosphere created by the staff was described as welcoming and warm, contributing positively to the guest experience.

However, not all feedback was positive. There were instances of rudeness and unhelpfulness reported, particularly at the front desk and pool areas. A few reviews mentioned unpleasant receptionists and problems with timely housekeeping services. Despite these isolated incidents, the general consensus portrayed the staff as predominantly friendly, helpful and courteous, significantly enhancing the overall stay at Tropicana Laughlin.

Wi-Fi
Tropicana Laughlin offers free wifi for its guests, but the overall experience varies significantly. While some guests found the wifi to be pretty good, many encountered issues with poor signal strength and unreliable connections. The wifi was often slow or almost nonexistent with some guests needing to visit the lobby to get a stable connection. Additionally, there were reports of limited or no wifi service within certain rooms and areas of the hotel, particularly in the Promenade Tower. Mobile devices seemed to fare better with the connection compared to PCs. Although wifi is included in the low resort fee, some guests were disappointed to find out that the free internet was only available for one day with subsequent days incurring a $20 charge. Overall, many guests feel that the wifi service at Tropicana Laughlin needs significant improvement.

Pool
Tropicana Laughlin's pool area garners mixed feedback from guests with a blend of praises and criticisms. On the positive side, many visitors appreciate the pool's cleanliness, describing it as a great and inviting spot to relax. Families often found the pool enjoyable with kids particularly loving their time there. Some guests highlighted the pool's appealing ambiance and others noted the adult-only hours as a beneficial feature. The pool area was also cited as a highlight and a nice place to unwind, partly due to the good music and the overall peaceful environment.

However, criticisms were not uncommon. Issues with overcrowding, especially on weekends, were mentioned frequently, making it hard for some to safely enjoy the facilities. Some guests found the pool too small for the hotel's capacity, contributing to a crowded environment. Cleanliness was another recurring issue with reports of dirty water, dead bugs and a need for more maintenance like leaf blowing and bleaches. The hot tubs received particularly poor feedback, often being broken or roped off.

Overall, while the pool area can be a pleasant and enjoyable part of the Tropicana Laughlin experience, it seems maintenance and managing overcrowding are areas that could use improvement to meet guest expectations consistently.

Parking
Parking at Tropicana Laughlin stands out for its convenience and accessibility with numerous reviews highlighting the ease of parking. Guests frequently compliment the ample, secure and free parking options available, making it straightforward to find a spot. Parking structures are extensive, providing lots of space, including covered options that protect vehicles from the elements. Many travelers appreciated that parking areas are close to the rooms and elevators, ensuring easy access to accommodations.

However, there are a few areas that could be improved. Some guests faced challenges with the parking garage elevators not functioning, necessitating longer walks with baggage. The valet service, while appreciated, is not consistently available with some noting its absence, especially at night. Specific parking needs, like for boat trailers or motorcycles, could also be better catered to and a larger number of handicapped spaces would be beneficial.

Overall, the hotel's parking facilities are well-received for their ease of access and convenience, contributing positively to the overall guest experience.

Nightlife

The staff at Tropicana Laughlin receive high marks for being friendly and helpful, which enhances the overall experience despite occasional comments about noise levels and smoke odors. The hotel is described as very clean, though slightly dated with a safe and reasonable bar scene.

The rooms are reported to be good and comfortable, ensuring a pleasant stay. Check-in and check-out processes are described as quick and efficient, making it convenient for those with tight schedules. However, some reviews indicate that the hotel lacks a business center, which might be a drawback for those needing more comprehensive business services. Despite being accessible, its location on the opposite side of the main road from the river may be inconvenient for those who prefer walkability to central attractions.

Accessible
Tropicana Laughlin appears to provide adequate accessibility features for guests with disabilities, ensuring a more comfortable stay. The hotel offers accessible handicapped rooms, which many guests have found satisfactory. The location is favorable for those with reduced mobility and wheelchair-accessible rooms are available upon request. The presence of operational elevators throughout the property, although inconsistent at times, generally supports easy movement between floors.

Important facilities such as handicap ramps and accessible parking spaces close to the entrance enhance the convenience for guests with disabilities. Guests have also appreciated the fast elevator service and the assistance provided by the bellman.

Guests appreciate the good range of slot machines, some finding them to be entertaining and rewarding. The casino floor is generally clean, modern and well-lit. Besides gambling, the casino provides additional amenities such as bingo and a convenient arcade for children.

However, many guests have reported a persistent smoke issue, noting that the casino area is often very smoky, which detracts from the overall experience. The casino environment can also feel quiet and subdued, lacking a lively vibe and some found the gaming options were limited, particularly the absence of a roulette wheel. The building is reportedly under construction with some areas including the jacuzzi and balcony closed, which might affect the overall ambiance.

Dining options within the casino appear limited, though there are nearby restaurants and the presence of a convenience store. Despite these drawbacks, Tropicana's casino remains an accessible and reasonably priced option for those visiting Laughlin, though it might not fully satisfy all guests due to its challenges with cleanliness, noise and smoke control.
