The Rio was on life support for a while and I didn't think it was gonna make it. Glad to see it is showing signs of life again. Thanks Dani you are the best!
I was at the Rio in its heyday. The international buffet was huge and amazing. The masquerade in the sky parade was super fun. I’m glad it’s back and didn’t close.
The Rio was my intro to Las Vegas in 1995. I stayed there again in 1997, 2002 and 2005. I loved everything about it: the pool, the rooms, the Voodoo Lounge, the free carnival show, and the Carnival World Buffet, which was the greatest buffet - ever! Fast forward to the last time I stayed there in 2016, for a Star Trek convention, and wow, was I disappointed. The rooms had deteriorated: uncomfortable beds, water stained furniture, clogged sinks, no hot water, smelly, and the sign out front was broken!!! I'm so glad that they broke away from Caesar's and the new owners are bringing it back to life! Looks like it will regain some its former glory! 🎉🎉
I really hope they keep up the improvements. This is a huge property with so much potential and I hope they keep it budget friendly and keep up the comps to their rewards members.
The Rio was the place to be when it was first built and owned by Anthony Marnell. When it was sold, is when it started to go down hill. The buffets, the free show and the sky show with the beads made the whole casino floor a great experience. Didn’t see table games in the video or mentioned, unless I didn’t hear it. Was a good place and hope it can be revived to be a great place again.
I couldn't get a clean shot of the tables without showing people that were activity gaming. The section was small but seemed busy all the time. Even when I went down to the gym at 6am. I took out my little piece about the gaming since I didn't care for my footage of it. The masquerade tower area was pretty quiet (which is pretty much any slot area I showed since it was clear) but the section in the updated tower had a decent amount of people playing the whole stay. We played a little as well. Cocktail servers made a few rounds too!
it's a Good thing they got rid of Seafood Buffet cause the last time we're there 7yrs ago...Rio was going down big time...we ate quite a few Dead Stinking crabs & lobsters
My first trip to Las Vegas was back in 1995!! We went to the RIO then, hung out, and went to the Buffet. The Buffet was the best thing ever then. I still remember some of the food I had then... it was amazing. Went back to the RIO in 2005 and it really went downhill... and the Buffet was nothing like it was 10 years earlier. I haven't been back since. Your room looks amazing and that view! I am happy to hear that they are fixing things up there. I'd like to see Vegas building up 'off-strip' hotels/casinos and building new ones also. It's odd that 'the strip' is so built up and where everybody goes. Great video!
Bikini thumbnail in the pool and already 75k views - I think we know the secret sauce now Dani! ;). - great video as always! I truly miss the show in the sky!
I lost more at the Rio than at ANY Caesar's property and I was there in March of this year. So so much for their "loose" slots 😂😂😂 They didn't match rewards from anywhere including Caesar's! STRONG pass!
Two memories of Rio: someone recommended the Brazil/Carnaval-themed dinner show they used to have so my wife and I went on one of our early visits to Vegas in the 90s. It was a good deal, like $30 a head, I think. Also enjoyed their Mardi Gras in the Sky Show (something like that) and we got beads; second memory was a guy trip where we were at Bellagio and walked to Rio because it didn’t look that far (duh) and it started to rain HARD. Ah, good times. Haven’t thought about going back in a long time because I heard it had gone downhill, but now looks like it may be worth a visit. Thanks for the look, Dani and Eddie.
With Hyatt Globalist status (60 nights a year) you get waived resort fees and breakfast in Hash House A GoGo for up to 4 people (2 adults and 2 children). I’ve gone a few times and stayed for 4 nights for $100. Hopefully they will open all the pools all week long. Seeing the Rio came back to life is awesome!
That is so sick! Lol. I've got to bump my level. I kept forgetting to give my card when paying for stuff . I'm at like $2.00 on my account haha. Still got the room somehow tho!
Hi, Dani702..., Beautiful as ever ! ! * Excellent video and very informative, and "Thank you" for sharing the video ! ! I am happy the NEW Rio Las Vegas Hotel & Casino Resort is "OPEN" and remodeled... * "Dani.702"..., is bright, intelligent, and attractive ! ! Excellent video review... "Semper Fi" Mike in Montana :)
Got a great deal at the RIO....2 nights for $67! Except they don't tell you about the $60 PER NIGHT "resort fee" and the $30 per night parking fee until you go to book the reservation. Not to mention the insane per night Nevada and Las Vegas taxes in this leftist democrat city Super pissed off. But every hotel in Vegas has these exorbitant fees. Why do they want to piss you off? Just tell us the total price So your RIO $32 price is approximately $160 PER NIGHT, out the door BEWARE! I Never booked it Going to Southern California beaches
I could only hope the Carnival in the Sky would make some sort of return. That would make the Rio absolutely perfect...that and the seafood buffet. Oh well, one can dream. Penn and Teller is a pretty fun show. The most impressive part: they stay and meet and greet everyone in the lobby after the show!! Love the fact the Rio is coming back to life. I hope it continues. Side note: There's something about this video that set it aside from your other videos, Dani. The editing? The presentation? I can't put my finger on it...but excellent video. Worth the wait from the delay. Lol
I wish the carnival would come back. Even one show a week would be fun. Thank you! It might be that I didn't feel rushed since I had two nights. When I do one night, I feel pressured to get everything in but I was able to take my time. Also had more time editing since I had issues with my program and let myself skip the week.
I was there two weeks ago and did a little gambling. Next thing I know, they are offering me 4 comp'd nights with no taxes or resort fees. I'll be back August 27. ALL FREE! The Ipanema room as well. Every room should have two sinks. Love this. That is a nice view. Hoping my view is as good. Will make for a great timelapse. This is a great video, thank you very much. Looking forward to the VooDoo Lounge. Some great looking cocktails, I also received some food comps for RIO. I guess I am going to the VooDoo Lounge. Tony Luke's had an awesome Steak & Cheese sub. Highly recommended. We played KISS mini golf. We were all a bit intoxicated, so of course it was hilarious. Starbucks is cheaper. lol Can't say that too often. lol Thanks for this great video.
That is so excellent! Spots like this that care about the guest and rewards members just hit home. Our server at voodoo and both front desk employees we talked too were excellent. Our rooms were free but we spent a good amount on food, drinks, and even did some gaming (cocktail server was on point with the free drinks lol) I'd go back in a heartbeat to experience the other spots too with their constant room deals. Pool and room were too tier for us considering the price.
I love your channel Dani.702 so don't take this wrong. The S is silent in Mardi Gras. Js it's like graw not graws. However, i do agree that the Rio buffet was the best while it was available though
I still have one of the gold necklaces that have the dice on them that my husband caught for me. We were there about 1995 close to our 42nd wedding anniversary. I really enjoyed this v
I always stayed at the Rio...Seafood buffet was the best!...the show in the sky was cool and the tall ceilings in the casino made it alot less smokey...always gave me a suite room for free when I came...then it went to shit...stopped going....I heard they sold and are renovating which makes me happy but heard bed bugs were a problem right now so not sure
There was zero nightlife during your stay? Definitely a poker mecca as well too. Glad that they updated rooms, honestly the Palms across the street is a great place to spend time even if you stay at Rio, excellent restaurants and classier.
Nastiest hotel in vegas, even the homeless wont sleep there. they need to tear that place down. I stayed there many years ago and left because every morning, the hallways smelled like SHIT
If it's the indoor shots, it's the low light on my camera phone which is crap. Casinos don't mind when I film in my phone but i get stopped when I pull out my good camera which is much better in low light but it is what it is. 😩
I was there two weeks ago and my website offer was a comp room for three nights but I had to pay the resort fees. I think my total was $136 (for three nights) and that was also in the Ipanema tower. There was great improvement on the property but they still had a ways to go. The room and pool area were excellent though! It's a huge value and I think I will do it again in August. Great work, Dani!
That's a great deal! The room and pool are top! I'd go back for sure for that alone. Our 2nd night we did stuff around the china town (1-2 blocks away) and enjoyed a few new spots that we will be back for!
I missed last week due to technical issues when putting this vlog together. But otherwise I've been posting pretty consistently. Maybe hit on notifications if UA-cam is not suggesting the videos. 😩
Congratulations on your free stay at the Rio but I must say I miss the buffet because I used to eat there all the time, now with you being so pretty when you dressed up for the happy hour you looked gorgeous and I’m glad you guys enjoyed it also I really loved the pool and the main reason I liked it so much was the amazing sunny day, now one thing I couldn’t believe was when you said 10 dollars for coffee that is highway robbery oh I forgot the view from your room was bad ass anyway I’m so glad you guys had a good time, now with that peace love and happiness and I’ll see you on the next Vegas vlog adventure peace out No better feeling in knowing that i was going to be in a hotel room in Las Vegas for two nights. I usually booked Sunday through Tuesday. That's a real nice shot of you Dani looking out the hotel window. Beautiful. Another great video as always brought back great memories of the Rio buffet Dani you are killing it Another great informative video...thanks for sharing Dani. Also, working out is really looking good on you. Rio was a great property even right before COVID it wasn't that bad with the buffet, then it became awful. Hope it comes back. Whooooooooooooooooaaaaa super Sweet!!!!!! Dani looking great!!! I the RIO! Great info and great Videos thanks Hashhouse biscuits and gravy oooh man !!! very good report Dani, also very nice shorts, very nice, I love how you stay in top of the current changes people are really interested in, Rio was our go to until it's recent demise, very smart of the ownership to recognize it still has value, i support their efforts and greatly appreciate yours in keeping us informed, you are a star Good video.

Good day Dani. First of all you looked stunning in the black dress. Now for the RIO. Great video and well done but the RIO is still a “pass” for me. Losing the WSOP probably sealed the eventual end for that property in time. I will be in Vegas June 26-July 2 for the Series but I’m staying downtown at the GN. Wish you the best and love your channel.
There's a fridge in the room. Go across the street to Walgreens and get a bottle. We paid $45 for a bucket of 5 drinks at the pool and then got 4 free drinks while playing slots with $20 total (broke even) and a room for $35 is a steal! I didn't pay for both nights but My room in LA for a wedding coming up at the Best Western is $185 each night haha. . I like the Rio. 😁😁
I finally got to stay at the Rio in Nov.2021 and was very disappointed! I had stayed at the GoldCoast across the street for a couple of years because it was cheaper but the Rio had close to the same price! It looks like they have a lot more options now than they did then,but the main attraction the Rio had is gone(WSOP)so I probably will never stay there again! I felt ripped off by the time that I left there! Over priced food and all expected a tip! I live in Ohio and fast food places don't expect tips like Smash Burgers does!🤢🤮😡🤬💩I'm not rich but they try to get rich off of me!
I know what you mean about the old ‘hey’ days of Vegas. I started going about 10 years ago and my niche fun was talking with the girls of the night. They’ve pretty much cleaned all that up and the strip is all cookie cutter entertainment with a tinge now toward homo erotic stuff. I eat. I’ll be there next week through the 4th and I might run into you! 😘
Wells are cheaper. Considering the last roof top lounge I went to was charging $25 for their specialty cocktails. I'm chill with $12 and our drinks were super strong at voodoo. Great service too.
@@Dani702 Yeah it's been quite a while since I've been to a happy hour. I saw that at the pool in Cosmo hotel they are charging $875 for a 750ml of Gray Goose. WTF!!! LOL 🤑🤪😳
With out the buffet and carnival activities it’s not worth paying. It’s no a block off the strip I’ve walked it in the hot sun it’s not a nice walk. Stepping over homeless it’s quite a walk
Ya a Vegas block is a mile. 😄 I probably should have cleared that. I did mention I wouldn't recommend walking. However, I saw a lot of people doing it. Someone mentioned it wasn't bad. To each their own. I don't mind being off strip and had an excellent time at the pool and my room was huge and clean. I'd go back for another stay anytime. 😁 Much calmer Vegas experience tho. Everyone's needs will be different.
Rio was our first las vegas hotel stay back in 2021. We were upgraded to a top floor room. What they didn't tell us was the landing area for the zipline was above our room. Every 10/15 minutes you would hear this loud stomping sound.
Respect! Your honest reviews and full transparency is refreshing and welcomed! I don’t care if a YTer get comped when making a video! I mean it keeps businesses on their toes to provide good service! But, YT should tell their viewers if they received anything free, and most important, they should pay for anything, and not try to sneak in for free! I unsubscribed from another Vegas YTer because she posted a video of her sneaking into a concert or something. I mean, even if she was joking, it’s a stupid joke. Pay for things or tell us if you got comped.
Excellent! I booked a Deluxe King/highfloor/stripview room for the Star Trek convention August 1st for a couple nights and it was extremely cheap. I was a little concerned from hearing things over the years about Rio but your review gives me relief! Thanks! The last time I stayed at the Rio was probably the mid 90's and yeah it was pretty darn cool back then.
When I was living in Vegas the Rip was still popping with the clubs and bars but later fell to the new strip attractions back in like 2012-2018 those were the days ! But I always liked the Rio
I absolutely love your vlogs and I’m staying here in September and it will be my first ever time in vegas and I will be travelling solo. I’m super excited now 😊
I was staying at the Rio during the same time you guys were - I asked the lifeguard about the pool complex, and he said that they are all supposed to be heated, but only one of the pools has the heater working right now. Still a work in progress. Good news is I was upgraded to one of the "older" suites in the Masquerade tower - 1,600 sq ft and the best view I've ever had at a hotel. Place is promising - 6 months to a year from now hopefully all the construction is done, and the heated pools are back!
I dig the 21 and over pools out there. However, one does have to be careful as there's a reason it's 21+ with some as there are topless sunbathing locations. I was walking around checking out the pool area at one of the resorts doing filming and when I got to the top of the area at the pool, woah boy. So while some may not mind, for others, when in these areas check to see if where you are that's a thing so you can avoid it. Great video and I just can't wait to get back to Vegas! Love seeing these sites.
I don’t understand how Dani doesn’t have 100,000 subscribers. She’s so cute.
Appreciate you. 😁❤️
Don't forget informative 😬with a great attention to detail! Seems slot channels get the most subscribers these days.
You mean delicious
Ya she is “ all that” kinda gal. Enticing she IS
Great review of the renovated Rio Hotel and Casino.
IT WAS THE BEST PLACE IN THE 90'S
100!
No for an off the strip property the Palms was the best in the 90’s.
@@TOPDOLLAR777NOOO 😂 Rio much better
The Rio was on life support for a while and I didn't think it was gonna make it. Glad to see it is showing signs of life again. Thanks Dani you are the best!
You and me both! We had a good time.

Bikini thumbnail in the pool and already 75k views - I think we know the secret sauce now Dani! ;). - great video as always! I truly miss the show in the sky!
Great Video, but the Music was very annoying!! You are like me you do not mind paying for things but you hate getting ripped off!!😁😁
Fo sho!!
I agree about the annoying music.
Always bring your own Keurig coffee maker. I don't trust the ones in the rooms and what's been in them and i live here. Glad you are well! Take care.
If there's a coffee maker already in room, we like to run it through once with just water before coffee.
Yes! More bikini = more Subs! Plesse and Thanks 😍
Another great review Dani. There was a lot of work putting this together and did not go unnoticed ! Thank you.

The Rio always makes me think of Penn & Teller putting on incredible shows
I wish I could have seen more of that bikini!!! So cute!
Hah. Well thanks!
We went to the Rio when it was in its prime . Best party place! ❤
I'm sure you answer this 30 times per video, but what camera are you using?
Wow, we noticed that you are looking extra great. You must be working out, keep it up!

Super pissed off.
But every hotel in Vegas has these exorbitant fees. Why do they want to piss you off?
Just tell us the total price
So your RIO $32 price is approximately $160 PER NIGHT, out the door
BEWARE!
I Never booked it
Going to Southern California beaches
I could only hope the Carnival in the Sky would make some sort of return. That would make the Rio absolutely perfect...that and the seafood buffet. Oh well, one can dream.
Penn and Teller is a pretty fun show. The most impressive part: they stay and meet and greet everyone in the lobby after the show!!
Love the fact the Rio is coming back to life. I hope it continues.
Side note:
There's something about this video that set it aside from your other videos, Dani. The editing? The presentation? I can't put my finger on it...but excellent video. Worth the wait from the delay. Lol
I wish the carnival would come back. Even one show a week would be fun. Thank you! It might be that I didn't feel rushed since I had two nights.

The Seafood Buffet there was pure awesomeness - too bad thats gone forever
Thanks for the great review! I remember the "good old days" of the Rio. At 19:30, I didn't know they allowed "guns" in the casino! 💪 👍
I'll be there soon for the Trek convention in August so i guess ill see if it seems different from last year.
That's awesome. I hope you have a good time.
I was there two weeks ago and did a little gambling. Next thing I know, they are offering me 4 comp'd nights with no taxes or resort fees. I'll be back August 27. ALL FREE! The Ipanema room as well.

Great review and done with a budget traveler in mind which I appreciate. Thanks!!!
It still looks like a ghost town... I miss being at the Rio for DEFCON.
Dani, is there any place on the strip that sells dole whip soft serve? Legit dole whip. No cocktails please. Thanks so much. We love your videos
There was zero nightlife during your stay? Definitely a poker mecca as well too. Glad that they updated rooms, honestly the Palms across the street is a great place to spend time even if you stay at Rio, excellent restaurants and classier.
Nastiest hotel in vegas, even the homeless wont sleep there. they need to tear that place down. I stayed there many years ago and left because every morning, the hallways smelled like SHIT
You would think the rio would incorporate colors such as green and yellow on the outside of its building.
Cool place - Very Nice DANI & Eddie you two have a blessed Sunday ! P.S. always Thumbs up ! PEACE OUT !!! BYE ....
❤️
Yes in the 90s the best buffet!!! I live in henderson some great places there 2!!
Best buffet ever.
For such a skinny girl those are terrific melons. Worth every penny!
The buffet used to be awesome until about 2005 then it went downhill on quality of food...

Nice figure, you look great in those shorts. Miss the old Rio with the mardi gra show in the sky !
Dani is still so pretty and sexy.
Thank you!
I’m going for the first time in October for my birthday. 6 nights. Can’t wait 😝
well thought out, well presented, thank you!!
Bring back the world buffet
👍 🌷 ❤️ ✌️
Glad to see the Rio is coming back. We stayed there in the late 90s and it was the place to be. The buffet was the best. 💖💯
I agree! Best buffet ever!!!
I was there two weeks ago and my website offer was a comp room for three nights but I had to pay the resort fees. I think my total was $136 (for three nights) and that was also in the Ipanema tower. There was great improvement on the property but they still had a ways to go. The room and pool area were excellent though! It's a huge value and I think I will do it again in August. Great work, Dani!
That's a great deal! The room and pool are top! I'd go back for sure for that alone. Our 2nd night we did stuff around the china town (1-2 blocks away) and enjoyed a few new spots that we will be back for!
Rio was a great property even right before COVID it wasn't that bad with the buffet, then it became awful. Hope it comes back.
Food hall took it's place. 😩
I like seeing Baby Yoda in your hotel room. 👍
What day of the week did you go? Or do they have happy hour on the weekends?
First time i saw you
Fun review and you are beautiful!
How much are the cabanas and do the have minimum spend?
I miss the Rio Carnival Buffet 😢
I’m here for the pool content 😍

Your tour of the Rio Las Vegas Resort was fantastic! The new renovations and budget-friendly options make it a must-visit.
You are so 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! I hope you liked the video.
Another great informative video...thanks for sharing Dani. Also, working out is really looking good on you.
Thank you!!

Another great video as always brought back great memories of the Rio buffet
Glad you enjoyed it. Best buffet ever
Whooo Dani I in love with you!😍🥰 💕
Hey girl it's been a while since I seen a vlog from you
I missed last week due to technical issues when putting this vlog together. But otherwise I've been posting pretty consistently. Maybe hit on notifications if UA-cam is not suggesting the videos. 😩
Congratulations on your free stay at the Rio but I must say I miss the buffet because I used to eat there all the time, now with you being so pretty when you dressed up for the happy hour you looked gorgeous and I’m glad you guys enjoyed it also I really loved the pool and the main reason I liked it so much was the amazing sunny day, now one thing I couldn’t believe was when you said 10 dollars for coffee that is highway robbery oh I forgot the view from your room was bad ass anyway I’m so glad you guys had a good time, now with that peace love and happiness and I’ll see you on the next Vegas vlog adventure peace out No better feeling in knowing that i was going to be in a hotel room in Las Vegas for two nights. I usually booked Sunday through Tuesday. That's a real nice shot of you Dani looking out the hotel window. Beautiful. Another great video as always brought back great memories of the Rio buffet Dani you are killing it Another great informative video...thanks for sharing Dani. Also, working out is really looking good on you. Rio was a great property even right before COVID it wasn't that bad with the buffet, then it became awful. Hope it comes back.

IT WAS THE BEST PLACE IN THE 90'S The Rio was on life support for a while and I didn't think it was gonna make it. Glad to see it is showing signs of life again. Thanks Dani you are the best!
The Rio was my intro to Las Vegas in 1995. I stayed there again in 1997, 2002 and 2005. I loved everything about it: the pool, the rooms, the Voodoo Lounge, the free carnival show, and the Carnival World Buffet, which was the greatest buffet - ever! Fast forward to the last time I stayed there in 2016, for a Star Trek convention, and wow, was I disappointed. The rooms had deteriorated: uncomfortable beds, water stained furniture, clogged sinks, no hot water, smelly, and the sign out front was broken!!! I'm so glad that they broke away from Caesar's and the new owners are bringing it back to life! Looks like it will regain some its former glory! U r so right about the coffee $$$$. We bring our own coffee maker. Waking up to the fresh smell of coffee in your room is the best. Thanks Dani 6 miles in an hour is amazing time! Another great review Dani. There was a lot of work putting this together and did not go unnoticed ! Thank you. Cool place - Very Nice DANI & Eddie you two have a blessed Sunday ! P.S. always Thumbs up ! PEACE OUT !!! BYE .... I love how you're honest and keeping it real! I could only hope the Carnivalpark be there in the Sky would make some sort of return. That would make the Rio absolutely perfect...that and the seafood buffet. Oh well, one can dream. Penn and Teller is a pretty fun show. The most impressive part:) they stay and meet and greet everyone in the lobby after the show!! Love the fact the Rio is coming back to life. I hope it continues. Side note: There's something about this video that set it aside from your other videos, Dani. The editing? The presentation? I can't put my finger on it...but excellent video. Worth the wait from the delay. Lol well done someone will help me later my upcoming my own Birthday okay my own people's know about me in Scooby Boo I was a kid moment in my own past okay thanks live-action.

Good day Dani. First of all you looked stunning in the black dress. Now for the RIO. Great video and well done but the RIO is still a “pass” for me. Losing the WSOP probably sealed the eventual end for that property in time. I will be in Vegas June 26-July 2 for the Series but I’m staying downtown at the GN. Wish you the best and love your channel.
Thank you! Enjoy golden nugget. Love that spot. We were just there this past weekend. 😃
⚜️🎭🌴 ‘phe·nom·e·nal View 🔭🏴☠️🔮🙉
$65 Night Including Resort Fee, 1-Block Walk To STRIP, I’m Booking Now! Thanks Dana 702
One Vegas block.... So a mile lol. I wouldn't recommend walking in the strip. But if you have a car! 👍🏼
I love how you're honest and keeping it real!
Thank you!
The Rio sucks people in. Rooms cost 35 dollars and one beer and one margarita cost 41.00$.
There's a fridge in the room. Go across the street to Walgreens and get a bottle. We paid $45 for a bucket of 5 drinks at the pool and then got 4 free drinks while playing slots with $20 total (broke even) and a room for $35 is a steal! I didn't pay for both nights but My room in LA for a wedding coming up at the Best Western is $185 each night haha. . I like the Rio. 😁😁
Nice. What a view
I finally got to stay at the Rio in Nov.2021 and was very disappointed! I had stayed at the GoldCoast across the street for a couple of years because it was cheaper but the Rio had close to the same price! It looks like they have a lot more options now than they did then,but the main attraction the Rio had is gone(WSOP)so I probably will never stay there again! I felt ripped off by the time that I left there! Over priced food and all expected a tip! I live in Ohio and fast food places don't expect tips like Smash Burgers does!🤢🤮😡🤬💩I'm not rich but they try to get rich off of me!
I know what you mean about the old ‘hey’ days of Vegas. I started going about 10 years ago and my niche fun was talking with the girls of the night. They’ve pretty much cleaned all that up and the strip is all cookie cutter entertainment with a tinge now toward homo erotic stuff. I eat. I’ll be there next week through the 4th and I might run into you! 😘
If you see me say hello for sure. But I hope you have a good time either way!
How the hell is $12 drinks a happy hour price? Especially at that old dump? 😂🤔😮💨
Wells are cheaper. Considering the last roof top lounge I went to was charging $25 for their specialty cocktails. I'm chill with $12 and our drinks were super strong at voodoo. Great service too.
@@Dani702 Yeah it's been quite a while since I've been to a happy hour. I saw that at the pool in Cosmo hotel they are charging $875 for a 750ml of Gray Goose. WTF!!! LOL 🤑🤪😳
@@2GoodLookin 😱 my goodness!
With out the buffet and carnival activities it’s not worth paying. It’s no a block off the strip I’ve walked it in the hot sun it’s not a nice walk. Stepping over homeless it’s quite a walk
Ya a Vegas block is a mile. 😄 I probably should have cleared that. I did mention I wouldn't recommend walking. However, I saw a lot of people doing it. Someone mentioned it wasn't bad. To each their own. I don't mind being off strip and had an excellent time at the pool and my room was huge and clean. I'd go back for another stay anytime. 😁 Much calmer Vegas experience tho. Everyone's needs will be different.
they are also the ones that started POOL PARTYS
very good report Dani, also very nice shorts, very nice,
Many thanks!
Rio was our first las vegas hotel stay back in 2021. We were upgraded to a top floor room. What they didn't tell us was the landing area for the zipline was above our room. Every 10/15 minutes you would hear this loud stomping sound.
I had dinner at Voodoo Lounge long time ago. It was the spot back in early 2000s🎉thanks for the tips on the comp
Respect! Your honest reviews and full transparency is refreshing and welcomed! I don’t care if a YTer get comped when making a video! I mean it keeps businesses on their toes to provide good service! But, YT should tell their viewers if they received anything free, and most important, they should pay for anything, and not try to sneak in for free!
I unsubscribed from another Vegas YTer because she posted a video of her sneaking into a concert or something. I mean, even if she was joking, it’s a stupid joke. Pay for things or tell us if you got comped.
Excellent! I booked a Deluxe King/highfloor/stripview room for the Star Trek convention August 1st for a couple nights and it was extremely cheap. I was a little concerned from hearing things over the years about Rio but your review gives me relief! Thanks! The last time I stayed at the Rio was probably the mid 90's and yeah it was pretty darn cool back then.
When I was living in Vegas the Rip was still popping with the clubs and bars but later fell to the new strip attractions back in like 2012-2018 those were the days ! But I always liked the Rio
Voodoo Lounge is a lot of fun.
KJ’s dim sum there at Rio is not to be slept on. I’m from Seattle and am pretty picky about my dim sum and that place blew my mind.
Now I got to go back. Lol.
Do they still have the stupid Penn and Teller banner hanging over the whole side of hotel? Totally ruins view from room.
Nope
I absolutely love your vlogs and I’m staying here in September and it will be my first ever time in vegas and I will be travelling solo. I’m super excited now 😊
I was staying at the Rio during the same time you guys were - I asked the lifeguard about the pool complex, and he said that they are all supposed to be heated, but only one of the pools has the heater working right now. Still a work in progress. Good news is I was upgraded to one of the "older" suites in the Masquerade tower - 1,600 sq ft and the best view I've ever had at a hotel. Place is promising - 6 months to a year from now hopefully all the construction is done, and the heated pools are back!
Nice review Dani.702
Thank you! Cheers!
I dig the 21 and over pools out there. However, one does have to be careful as there's a reason it's 21+ with some as there are topless sunbathing locations. I was walking around checking out the pool area at one of the resorts doing filming and when I got to the top of the area at the pool, woah boy. So while some may not mind, for others, when in these areas check to see if where you are that's a thing so you can avoid it. Great video and I just can't wait to get back to Vegas! Love seeing these sites.
Just got my car stolen from there a few days ago. Wouldn't recommend. Staff and security seemed inconvenienced by me.
How was the casino?
Martorano was my favorite restaurant in vegas was sad when it closed at the rio. The paris location wasn't the same.
It's always a huge bummer when your go to spot closes.
Danni, you look great but let's work on that tan. Shouldn't take long with that Vega sun +++
I work in skin care. Tanning is a big no no. 🤭 SPF all day everyday.
Video like Jim Ross
one block off the strip?......the longest block one will ever trek!
Vegas block. I saw so many people walking it though. I wouldn't recommend but to each their own right?? 😁
