This Roller is SOOO AWSOME.Im from Nebraska and we were going to california for our vacation.So we needed a place to stay along the way, and this place was the best.We walked in around 12:00 pm and check the price and see if it fits our budget.Most nice hotels cost around $100 to $200 a night.But this one only cost $30 to $40 a night.Which was a plus at first but then there was the desperato..Unfortunetly my mom and I had to wait till morning to ride.But when we did OMG.When it was over my mom never wanted to ride a roller coaster again,and for me well lets just say there were tears running down my cheeks but I was laughing.I say it is suitable for children ages 13 and up,but not for any under the age of 13. I say this because I am 13 myself and if i were any younger It would be to much. So thats what I ment when i said it wasent sutible for children.

What a blast! My friend and I stayed at Buffalo Bill's and rode the Desperado twice in a row- it took us 20 minutes to find the way back to our room; it scrambled us that much.

It looked so unassuming driving into Primm - little did we know what we were getting into. Needless to say I almost lost all bladder control during the first drop, and proceeded to say every prayer I could think of for the remaining two minutes of terror! What a thrill, alright...

This roller coaster is fast. If you have younger kids you may not want to have them ride this. One kid(about 11) that road it with us was crying. Secure all lose belonging or you will lose them. This is the first rollercoaster that I have road that tells you do not raise your hands above your head. It is a great roller coster

Best ride between Los Angeles and Vegas. Very steep drops and awesome G forces. One of the top ten coasters in the world.

If you can't get to Magic Mtn., this is a great substitute. This roller coaster is fast and gives a lot of quick turns. I recommend the front car, it looked like the track had disappeared. Unfortunately the other rides at the park aren't even close to the Desperado.
