I liked the Moana Surfrider--comfortable and intimate, though the king room I had was tiny ($132/night with a UA 50% off certificate--the certificate was worth about $40, as the saver rates were in the $175 range w/o breakfast, $190 range w/breakfast.

I thought the HHV had the charm of an airplane terminal--just didn't trip my trigger (although I dislike Las Vegas for the same reason).
