The Rio is luxurious for the 1800s.
They have paper cups for phones.
no electricity.
other than its nice.

They have high speed via ethernet in the rooms; or at least they did in my room. I did not try my wireless.

They had a cable in my room

2 prices
9.95/24-hr
12.95/24-hr.

Never did figure out the difference besides the obvious

I stayed on the 10th floor at the Rio for 9 days earlier this month and was able to pick up a decent wireless signal the entire time I was there for free.

The first night there I tried the "high speed" internet available through the ethernet cable in the room. The only difference I could see were the price. They were both slow. Slower than the wireless for me at least.
