No, it's definitely not "bad".
It's not shiny and new like the Wynn, and you won't find Picasso or Monet in the hallway, but the rooms are nice, the price is usually pretty good, and it's an easy hop to the other, newer and more glamorous places like the MGM and Luxor. You can also get around pretty easy using the rail if you want to get further down the Strip.
I dunno about you, but when I go to Vegas, I seldom spend all my time in the casino where I've booked my stay. I get out and hit several places, either just for the fun of cruising or to see specific shows.

It's not that bad, it's worse. Honestly don't stay there.
I don't care what anyone else says it's that bad.
Its bad for any other city but for Las Vegas it's really bad.
Once you've seen the nicer hotels on the strip you will agree.

If your looking for low cost, and room type does not matter, Tropicana is a nice choice. It is in a good location but is a fairly old property. I personally recommend the Luxor Hotel. It's a bit nicer thna Excalibur, it is fairly inexpensive if you book directly from thier website, and if you stay 2 or more nights, they will give you a complimentary pass to the Oasis Spa on property. The tower rooms are nicer than the pyramid, but I recommend staying in the Pyramid on a high floor and taking those wonderful Inclinators to the top for the view.

I stayed at the Tropicana last year and I had no problems. It had a beautiful landscaped area with a pool with a swim up blackjack table and a nice hot tub too. Room service was great! The buffets are horrible though. Go across the street to the Excalibur for buffets. Excellent hold 'em tables.

As everyone has said, its an older property; therefore, a piece of vegas history. I stayed there in 2000 for my honeymoon--we had a blast in one of the jacuzzi suites. The Comedy Stop was alot of fun. There are many hotels/casinos in walking distance.
In contrast, my stay at the Stratosphere Hotel in 2003 was horrible--service was just awful, food so-so and casino average.

It's not bad at all. I'd stay there before I stayed in other places....say Circus Circus.
The thing is, how much time are you really going to spend in your room? How much of a room do you need? I mean, who goes to Vegas and sits around in their hotel room? If that's all your doing, you're missing the point! Get out there!

I haven't stayed there, but the casino is old. It's across the street from MGM, Luxor, Excalibur and New York New York, so the location is okay. I'd stay somewhere else if possible.
