There are great pools in each of the towers, that are never crowded, and provide a great island atmosphere.  When I stay at the Nugget I spend most of my time in the pool area before crashing in a standard, casino hotel room.  Great for a quick getaway with your signifigant other!
Pros:  Great pools hot tubs and drinks downstairs
Cons:  Somewhat cheesy room decour
