I stayed at The Rio a couple of times in the past. But I think their downfall started when they stopped the courtesy buses to the Strip several years ago. Like many people staying there I had no car, so I ended up feeling trapped. They also stopped the Carnival in the Sky and other free entertainment that I enjoyed. Together with the constant hounding from Time Share Sellers, that was enough for me to change to a different venue.
I understand you, but there are 2 buslines, 202 on Flamingo via Strip and 104 to South Strip (Mandaley, Vegas Sign). Yes, the public transit isnt real good in Vegas.
100 out the door doesn't seem bad, but it probably has gone up a bit. I think I paid a little less than that back in June, and I'm betting prices are lower now cause the time of year.

Take a taxi to the strip...its like $10.
Agreed the cab ride was only $10 to the strip. Even if you pay for that to and from your still coming out ahead. There is no time share selling now.

i think every room in the rio is huge. I stayed their a couple times back in the day and they were massive. Great video
Wow! That reno looks amazing! Great to see them revamping that place.
The mini fridge looks like the same kne at resorts world
You’re right it’s identical. What’s nice is you can move the grates out and store large bottles.
Got 3 days of free days in February. Excited.
How did you like the Rio?

I saw them remodeling the pool area when I was there. It really needed it ;)
Bad sound
True the iPhone 15 pro mic stinks

Did you have to request that particular tower to get the renovated rooms?
Yes when I reserved it specifically mentioned the new rooms.
