It was late and we wanted to stay somewhere quieter and less expensive than Vegas. I was so grateful she let us check in at 11:30 pm after a long day in Bryce Canyon. The madmen 50 motif was cool, plenty of plugs. Cute separate kitchen was great. Firm wonderful king bed. Actually way better than our Vegas room at the gold nugget /Carson tower

Very roomy and clean rooms with attention to all the details. They even had bumpers on the bed legs so you wouldn't hurt your toes if you stubbed them. We really liked the kitchen area with the retro fridge and microwave. It was a great place to spend the night.

We enjoyed the nostalgic 70's 80's look. The room and surrounding area was clean and quiet, located close proximity to restaurants and bars. In the morning, 6am, the barking dogs and rude people beeping their horns was annoying. Also the A/C /Heater fan was noisy at all levels. All told I would stay here again.

My last stay was better. My room this stay wasn’t great. The TV had problems and the toilet bowl was loose. The shower head was way too low to enjoy a good shower. All that said, I will probably try them again in the future.
