No microwave in any casino properties in Vegas,
(Btw, there are no coffee maker, no glassware neither, this apply to almost ALL casino rooms in vegas and not just Rio) you want any of those you have to look at timeshare or condo or regular chain hotels like Hyatt place

Casino rooms especially lower end property like Rio are meant to use just for overnight sleep and shower but nothing else, and definitely not for long term stay, so don't expect any kind of amenity like a normal hotel room have, weeknight rates are this cheap for a reason, I mean what do you expect for a $29/night room ??? Even if you are not globalist, adding resort fee is still $65/night. If you read up post, other people already said we will just use Rio to qualify for status and breakfast but actually stay somewhere else
