rooms @ Rio

Staying at the Rio in July. Which tower Ipanema or Masquerade should I ask for? Room quality and casino floor proximity are key.

Ipanema is the old tower. If you want to be near the casino with the Masquerade in the sky you will want to be in Masquerade.

I found that although Masquerade tower left something to be desired for rooms for non-Diamond members (we had about 30 people--many diamond members). Diamond members--aka high rollers--had better rooms. The others that were in Masquerade still had rooms that left a lot to be desired.

Ipanema towers were old and shabby even the upgraded room I had after issues with the original room. Frayed carpets in the upgraded room replaced the worn out bath tub and burning smell in the original room.
