Treasure Island is a step down in my opinion. Its a kids hotel, simmilar to the circus circus, and Excalibur.

How far of a cab ride is the Red Rock from the strip?

It was $50 cab ride from the airport, so too far and too much. The shuttle is a nice feature but it stops running, if I remeber right, at 7 pm (or maybe it was 9) Either way, way too early.

Red Rock itself is nice, but to be honest, it gets really boring after a day or so because it's not near anything. It has it's benefits to be sure, but it could be anywhere. You don't feel like you are really in Las Vegas when you are there.

Vegas is getting to be more and more of a ripoff.

It's about $65. They have a shuttle from the hotel to the Strip nightly as best I can remember. They also have a shuttle to the airport that leaves every even hour from the hotel and returns every odd hour.

Red Rock was great and the setting for the tournament there was perfect. It will be a bit different in a place like TI, especially if they hold it in a ballroom or something of that nature.
