"The whole place is often uncomfortably crowded; expect long lines at the restaurants."
Frommer's

"This ode to the make-believe medieval world of swords and sorcerers boasts low, low rates, a central location and a long list of B-grade entertainment that helps fill its nearly 4,000 rooms." Full review
Gayot
"Debuting in June 1990, this colorful castle spawned a number of nineties-era theme resorts. It is still a fun-filled place whose medieval architecture and decor are popular with family travelers."
Lonely Planet

Just be sure to request a room on the south side, rather than right next to the freeway.
Frommer's
"Though not actually on Fremont Street, Main Street Station is just 2 short blocks away, barely a 3-minute walk. Considering how terrific it is, this is hardly an inconvenience." Full review
Time Out

Gayot

Lonely Planet
