I absolutely loved this hotel! It’s very nice, but not luxury. The pool and gym are small. And there’s no security swipe on the elevator. Meaning anyone can go to any floor. But it’s cleanliness, location, and friendly staff make it a worthwhile stay in Las Vegas!

My wife and I did a staycation to celebrate her birthday and were looking forward to a relaxing night after exploring downtown. Unfortunately, this hotel completely ruined that experience. The walls are ridiculously thin—you can hear everything happening in the hallways. Throughout the early morning, we were constantly woken up by people screaming and slamming doors. At one point, we even thought someone was trying to open our door. It was incredibly unsettling. To make things worse, the pillows were absolutely horrible—easily the worst we’ve ever had, and we’ve stayed at most of the hotels downtown. We barely got any rest at all. If you value a good night’s sleep, stay far away from this hotel.

My hotal was nice!

I stayed for 3 nights while visiting a friend in Vegas for business. Room was comfotable enough, but location could have been better. Got the noise of the Fremont Experience, but had only a view of a wall. To be fair, I paid for the cheapest room available, so that was really only a minor irritation. I was not expecting the best room in the place. It really was fine, I was only staying at that hotel because of the name. The staff were extremely friendly, and very accomodating, and everything in the room worked as expected. Everything was clean and comfortable.

My sink didn't drain. Room smelled like smoke. Carpet was disgusting. There was some brown stuff stuck to the wall. The door to one of the cabinets didn't close. THEY ALLOW SMOKING IN THE CASINO DOWNSTAIRS!! I don't go to Vegas much but I can't believe that's still legal. This is the kind of place where you want to wash the remote as soon as you get there.
