Trump Las Vegas Gets a Not So Bad Review

We haven't heard much from the Trump International Hotel and Tower Las Vegas since it opened back in April but this week it scored a fairly positive review in the LA Times from reviewer Valli Herman.
It sounds like business has been slow since opening, as some might have predicted for an off-strip hotel with no casino. But the reviewer is confident that there are enough special features at the Trump to win the guests over in the long term.
For example, when guests arrive they're treated extra-well: doormen with white gloves do the door opening, and in the lobby you get offered a chilled bottle of water and a heated hand towel.
Nice start. The future apparently promises extras like personalized business cards for all travelers, loan computers in their rooms and air-conditioned pool cabanas.
There were a couple of complaints though: housekeeping failed to clean the Herman's room for two consecutive days (ouch!) and the rooms aren't well sound-proofed--the freeway and train noises kept them awake. Sounds like it's worth a stay if you get a cheap rate but otherwise it might be worth holding off until more guests start giving it a bit more atmosphere.
