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!

The room was okay, stains on the carpet, bathroom sink very slow to drain, one of the bars in the shower was coming loose. The whole room needs better lighting. On the flip side the bed was very comfortable and I liked that we had a safe in the room. The hotel, rooms, etc. could use a good upgrade, the elevators were horribly slow.

Let us check in early for extra $22. Room is clean and efficient and convenient to Fremont. It is a bit loud due to the street and interstate noise but clean and a great deal.

Nice downtown hotel. Rooms were surprisingly updated for an older hotel. However bathrooms were very small. Parking was easy. Close to freeway onramp so easy to get to the strip. One block off of Fremont Experience so close but quiet. Hawaiian specialty restaurant was awesome!

Clean hotel great location

This hotel is very clean and has everthing you need for a short break. Location is great right next to Fremont street. $4 a bottle of bud compared to $11 a bud at Treasure Island on the rip off strip. Only down side is smoke in the casino.
