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.
