If you want to exit the Trop, the front tower is the way to go. The elevator is literally right next to the front door. I've stayed in both towers, everything from the two-story supersuites and big parlor suites to a crappy 2 double that had a tub that leaked all night. Rooms just vary.

If I got a unsat room, I suppose I'd go down and see what luck I might have getting it changed. But geographically, I'd push for the front (Paradise) tower.

Bungalows: I haven't stayed in but know where they are. They *are* easy to access from the back of the parking area, just a short hallway that's sort of on its own. One end pops out at the breakfast buffet, the other end pops out to the back of the parking garage on the Strip. Probably the easiest to bring a ton of bags into, etc. if you're luggage heavy. Go check in, then run back to car to drag your bags and gear in the back way.

The parking situation seems to vary - perhaps Diamond guests can park in the front little lot, maybe it's just player's club... no one seems to check, but whatever.
