We had nothing but problems. We had a reservation and were given a room on the quiet side of the hotel away from the street side. The first thing we noticed was that the room felt uncomfortably warm and found that the air conditioner didn't work. It was the middle of August and over 100 degrees F outside so my husband went down to the front desk and reported our problem but the guy wouldn't believe him and we had to wait for him to come to the room and check it himself. I mean, how complicated can these things get right? Sure enough it didn't work and he said he only had one room left so we were given the room directly across the hall on the street side which was noisy. The A/C did work but then we had other problems. The room had two queen beds and when my husband sat on the edge of one of the beds the mattress seesawed up in the air because it was not put back correctly on the floor pedestal for some reason. We labored to get that thing put on straight and should've called the staff but didn't want to wait forever so we did it ourselves. We had a good laugh over that one. The bed cover was also dirty. The tub/shower was another big problem because only half of it worked which was the bath spout. We also reported this. So, no shower staying in this room. At this point we just shook our heads because we are a La Quinta returns customer and had stayed in over 20 of them on this particular trip where we drove 7700 miles and this was by far one of the worst ones we stayed in - the other one was in Layfayette, LA but that's another story. It was way overpriced for what you get and the hotel is old and needs a facelift. Another thing that didn't work was the ice machine on our floor and we had to go hunt one down. It was just one thing after another as if they operated the place on a shoestring budget and cut corners wherever they could The staff is not friendly and if there is a problem they act like it's your fault. The people running the place are foreigners. After complaining, we did however get a reduced rate for the one night stay due to all the inconveniences.

My boyfriend, and our maltipoo dog traveled from Los Angeles, CA to Vegas this month. The location of the hotel is perfect, only about 1 mile from the strip which is no problem if you are there with a car. There is a convenience store across the street which is kind of sketchy, looks like there were some drug dealers, addicts who hang around there. During the day it's fine, but I wouldn't walk around at night. When we arrived the lobby of the hotel was nice and clean, they only have one luggage cart that was being used so it took us a couple of trips back and forth from the car to bring all our stuff in. Also, there is no elevator at this hotel. Wasn't a problem for us considering it's only 3 levels (basement, main level and one upper floor). I imagine that elderly or people with health problems should know there isn't an elevator. When we got to our room, it was very clean, we checked the mattress, pillows and all were perfectly white and clean. The only initial problem was the cleaner smell of the room. It smelled like the carpets had just been shampooed with pinesol, very, very strong cleaner smell. We got rid of it fairly quickly by opening up the window for a few hours. The parking lot wasn't overcrowded, and it was free (which is always a surprise to those of us who live in LA)! I was disappointed that the icemaker was out of service. I even went to the other icemakers on other floors and they didn't work either! Would of been nice to put our bottled waters, soda's on ice :( Besides the couple of things (cleaner smell, no ice) the place is fine if your looking to visit Vegas for a short time, and you aren't expecting any extra's. It's very simple accomadations. They offer a pretty good continental breakfast with fresh juice, fruit, coffee, belgian waffle makers, raisin toast, bagels, boiled eggs and cereal. It lasts from 6am to 9am It was safe and clean. We were really only in the room to sleep so it was fine. We paid about $80/night for Friday night and Saturday night. The plus was we were able to bring our dog. The only hotel on the strip that allows dogs is the Four Seasons and that's a pretty penny. I'm not sure I would stay here again, It wasn't terrible but it also wasn't great. Like I said if you are looking for a clean place to stay, this is fine. I'm not sure what the reg going rate is, but I wouldn't pay more than 80/night to stay here, you will find yourself sorely disappointed if you pay alot.

I travel all over the US almost every month and have not seen such friendly and helpful staff. I had a very serious issue with my laptop and the manager went above and beyond to save my day. I would have been in a big mess if he was not there to rescue me from the disaster. Housekeeping was excellent. Very clean and neat place to stay. I will highly recommend my family and friends to stay there. Great for people travelling with pets. Great experience, no problems at all.

We stayed Jan 24-26 2009. We had a really hard time finding a hotel that would allow a dog. Finally we found this hotel for $100 a night. The hotel was clean and fairly comfortable for 4 people. The breakfast was good. My only complaint is that the hotel is pretty old and needs a facelift. Considering that you can find 4 star hotels cheaper then this, on the strip I felt a bit ripped off by the price but we had a dog with us and that is what made it hard to be picky. This place was still fairly close to the strip though, so we had lots of fun. The desk staff could have been nicer though... they seemed to purposely avoid you and acted like they didn't want to be at work. :(

  • Liked — They were clean and allowed dogs
  • Disliked — The hotel was old and needed a remodel... also overpriced. :/

Staff was very friendly at check in. I requested a smoking room, the desk clerk said the smoking rooms were on the first floor, and the hallway was being painted. I could either take a non-smoking room on the second or third floor, or stay on the first and deal with a slight paint smell. I took the paint smell, and it wasn't bad at all. No painting noise during the night, and the windows opened in the room to vent out the paint/smoke smell anyway.
Water pressure was good, and beds were clean and comfortable. The free breakfast in the morning was fresh and tasted good. You had waffles, cereal, bread, and fruit, along with all beverages. Definately worth the time for free. Hotel is less than a 5 minute drive from the strip, and can be reached easily from the airport using the back roads.

  • Liked — FREE Wi-Fi, Breakfast, & opening windows
  • Disliked — Hot tub was closed for repairs
