This is a small detail and really does not matter, but what the heck.
The Riviera has renovated rooms and unrenovated. You can't secure a newer room when you book, but when you check in, you can request. Its a small thing, but to anyone who would care, thats the inside scoop.
They also have a fleet of indoor motorized carts for anyone who needs them at about $165 for the week. Oh, and they have an entire room to recieve any shipped gear, and they have a shipping center to ship it back (wicked cheap).
Good luck to everyone as we prepare to run the Mabuchi silver can Vegas Race!
