Our hotel guest coupon booklet included free passes to late events in the showroom, including one of my favorite 80's cover groups, The Spazmatics, who play every Saturday night. We skipped it, but they also offer a free comedy show for adults late on Fridays. The people watching wasn't nearly as entertaining as I had anticipated. I expected the convention to make a bigger impact to our stay, however, if I didn't already know that it was going on, I probably wouldn't have realized that it was happening. We knew that the hotel would be busy due to the Art-n-Ink Tattoo festival invading South Point for the duration of our visit. We were in 'vacation mode' and refused to let the vibe at check-in affect our good spirits. The attendants seemed frazzled and the manager had several guests waiting to speak with her regarding complaints. We arrived at South Point mid-evening on a Thursday and we were greeted with a long queue at check-in. Plus, sadly, Tahiti Village was booked solid.

South Point had a great weekend offer and the reviews seemed decent, so we decided to give it a try for our end of July trip. After last years wonderful discovery of Tahiti Village, Dan and I have been open to trying other non-strip hotels.
