We have been coming to Laughlin at least 4-6 times a far for the past 15 years. The Aquarius WAS always a great place to stay. And after the room upgrades, definitely the best. However, during the past six visits, we have needed a handicapped accessible room. These rooms are very few and none are included in the "river view" locations. They are near the elevators, fairly noisy, and facing the pool and large, bright Aquarius sig at the front entrance.When renovating, the hotel did it in sections. The best rooms, California tower river view rooms on the higher floors, have the most recent upgrades as well as the better beds. Lately, however, when a lamp has malfunctioned, they haven't replaced it so the rooms are too dark for reading. On the bright side, the upper floor California river view rooms do have a small refrigerator. However, the handicapped rooms do not. We requested one (for an additional fee of course0, and got this really old rusty fridge that was dirty and made a lot of noise. After a lengthy "fight" with the hotel management, we finally got a newer, cleaner model (this was after being told that the old dirty one we first received was the only one available).If you like to play poker or Keno, don't come to the Aquarius! They have eliminated these games and you have no way of earning points for your player's card. In fact, most week nights even the crap table is vacant and/or shut down. There are not many slots in the non-smoking areas.Starbucks used to be the highlight of the Aquarius, but it is also no longer in residence. And neither is its free WiFi...A big BOO! We were told that McDonalds had free WiFi but when we tried it, there was none and the employee there didn't think they had it.If you come during an Aquarius concert weekend, don't waste your money on tickets. Get a tier view room in the California tower between the 7th and 14th floors and you will have some of the best seats ever. You can see and hear the concert perfectly.Most of the valet, bell, and housekeeping staff are competent and courteous; very friendly and helpful. Our last two years have been a real "fight" to get the guaranteed rooms that we booked. And with the handicapped accessible rooms, they will let anyone stay in them, so many REALLY disabled people are out of luck! And you rurally don't know what room you will end up with, but the GUARANTEED room is a joke and never honored unless you happen to come during a slow time.We agree that eating, sleeping, and gambling are the main activities at the river, unless you like to play Bingo. Unfortunately, the Bingo Rooms contain a lot of smokers and few effective exhaust fans. There is no Indian Bingo type games except a few in the evenings at the Riverside. The staff are very friendly there.The shopping mall is a joke; you can go through it in less than an hour. All the really good stores have left. However, there is a Bath and Body Works Outlet and a Dress Barn Outlet... great deals. And there Family Dollar store has all the essentials you may need at a much cheaper rate than the hotel gift shops.The Harrahs' Buffet is the best one in Laughlin if you don't drink. Otherwise you are basically paying for these cocktails with the basic meal price at the Aquarius. We are thinking of going to the Edgewater or RiverBelle on our next trip, but then the gambling and other entertainment activities are the best at the Riverside... and a huge non-smoking casino too.

Smooth check in with no wait. Great valet service and offer of bell service we did not use. Room was fresh and clean, and pretty much up to date. Many dining and bar options, although the buffet and bar on the riverfront is pretty at night. Lots of activities on the driver nearby, including jet ski rentals, dinner cruise, riverboat rides, etc. waterfront recreation within easy walking distance. We would recommend this hotel if you find yourself in Laughlin.

Stayed from 5/30/13 to 6/2/13, and I was pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness and comfort of the room I was given. Linens were fresh, bathroom sparkly clean, and the maid came in and made up the room while I was at breakfast, wonderful to come back to a clean room. My view was of the pool area, but truly, I don't think there is a bad view in the whole place...I could see the river and the surrounding mountains. I did not opt for an upgrade and was given a room on the 9th floor with floor to ceiling windows. The floor was dead quiet, even on the weekend, and I was not bothered at all by any other guest noise. All staff I ran into were very courteous and helpful.

We have stayed at this location many times when it was still a Flamingo. And then a couple of times after it became Aquarius. Then we stayed away for a few years and just returned after Memorial Day weekend. It was a pleasant surprise to see the updated room and I believe the elevators are new also. We were on the 11th floor of the Arizona Tower, no problems with noise, in fact, it was very quiet the two days we were there. I think all the rooms have view of the river, somewhat. The only problem we had was the bathtub, which seemed to be clogged. Nice touch was the extra towels in the bathroom. For the hot weather there, it would be nice if they have a refrigerator in the room. One other suggestion, the check-in clerk could be a little friendlier because that's the first impression that guests get of a business.

stayed here once before rooms quite nice , there are 2 towers one is adults only and my advice would be to pick that one when booking a room, its much nicer than the arizona tower that we ended up staying in this time, the hallway to rooms in this tower are very drab carpet very dirty but the room was ok. it had a nice view of the river, always ask for a room with a nice view.
