NO MICROWAVE, Tiny mini fridge with no tiny freezer-not deep enough to set anything in. So when you get a presidential suite you still can’t really do any meals or snacks in your room. Can’t heat up any leftover take out and fridge not big enough to put any leftovers in. We bought a pie and had to stand it on its end No garbage can big enough for more than a drink bottle or two. Our room had an adjoining room availability- but we could hear every move they made! Kept us up until early am. Other wise PERFECT!!!

The property was nice, but when we got in the room, you definitely see all the imperfections, cracks, water spots on the ceiling, and not to mention the loud ice machine right outside our door, which was closed in with the ice machine. The pool area was very nice, it seemed more like an adult retreat instead of a family retreat in my opinion.

Great stay overall. Hotel in excellent location, within easy reach of everything we needed and the fact walkable to the Island was a bonus. Our room was clean, the beds really comfortable and despite being in a busy area we were plenty surprised how quiet it was. The children especially loved the pool, which was a real highlight for them. Breakfast was a mixed experience. The set up was unusual - our room booking was for two adults and two children, but only two breakfasts were included as part of the room booking. We have never come across this before. The food itself was lovely, but service could be slow especially if you sit outside. At times it felt like we had been forgotten altogether. Overall, though, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel for its location, pool and comfy beds.

The hotel was nice and clean. They offer a full breakfast. The pool was nice. The only complaint I had was the bartender running the pool bar kept disappearing. When I first got there I thought the bar was closed cause there was nobody around.

We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again! It’s conveniently located (directly across from the Island) which makes it easy to walk or drive to many places along the strip. The drink and breakfast options were great. We loved the retro style as well. The staff was very friendly and super helpful. Highly recommend staying here!
