Pros:

Staff was friendly

Cons:

The room I booked wasn't available. Apparently they didn't get to clean the rooms with 2 queen beds. A bit frustrating. I would have canceled the reservation but it was late. I WON'T stay there again. One person in front of me and took close to 30 minutes to check in.

Convenient, but disappointing overall.
Pros:

It’s hard to say. The hotel was convenient and felt safe, which I appreciated. Beyond that, there wasn’t much that stood out positively about the stay.

Cons:

The staff member who checked us in was not helpful. He gave us poor directions to our room, did not believe us when we said the door was broken, and our room number was not even listed on the map. The map itself also needs to be much more legible.

Overall, I would not stay here again. The customer service needs improvement. Paying $10 per day for parking should have been included, and the paid breakfast bar downstairs was disappointing. A basic continental breakfast should be included for guests.

Cons:

Loved the location after a long drive from Las Vegas, but the room was a huge disappointment.

I checked in around 10 PM and immediately noticed the room had not been properly cleaned—wrinkled sheets, hair on the pillows, and more hair in the bathroom. The toilet was dirty and the shower curtain was yellow.

When I called the front desk, instead of sending housekeeping, they gave me sheets and expected me to change the bed myself. I had to remove and replace everything on my own.

The next morning, I requested service again and was told, “we’ll see if we can,” which was not reassuring. After explaining the situation, they said someone would be sent.

A night staff member also told me I would receive a one-night compensation due to the condition of the room. However, when I followed up on Sunday morning, I was told they could not honor it and that “the night guy always says that,” which felt very unprofessional.


Room 3-335


As a manager at Las Vegas, I was especially disappointed by both the cleanliness and the lack of accountability. I expected much better service.
