This hotel's strongest asset was the front desk and housekeeping staff. The desk staff was always warm and friendly and were nice enough to graciously take photos of us in the lobby before we all headed out!

The rooms were clean and housekeeping was quick to supply extra towels and a roll-away bed for us. Although one of the days that we wanted service, we did not get it, but it likely occurred because the Do not Disturb sign was out until about 4 PM. The hotel was slow and there weren't many others on our floor, so it's understandable that the room was not serviced. If we had asked for service, I am confident they would have accomodated us quickly.

The pool and hottub area was rather decent. Nothing too flashy, but it was clean and there were always fresh towels available.

The breakfast buffet, though not free at this location, was quite good for the price. The breakfast attendant was very friendly and accomodating to our group. I felt he was a gracious host and made us feel welcome.

Whenever we needed a cab, the desk was always quick to call immediately and assist us. We were a relatively high-maintence group, as we often needed things like towels and clean linen at odd hours, but they did not seem to mind. Additionally, when we came back to the hotel, possibly a little boisterous around 3 and 4 AM, they were smiling and friendly.

There is a free internet terminal there, but it doesn't have any access to any other programs, other than the internet.

In Vegas, I recommend going horseback riding in the Red Rock Canyon. We stumbled upon it by accident, and for $69 a person, we got a guided horseback tour around the canyon, and it was the best part of our trip. Check it out!!

Best thing about this hotel is that we got it cheap and on short notice. We paid $79 per night on 4th of july weekend. Also, the hotel is right across the street from the monorail. The rooms were average with the no frills look to them. The best thing about the room was that the blinds blocked out 100% of the midday sun. We woke up at 1pm and thought it was still nighttime.

Nice hotel, very friendly staff and located short walk from the strip (5-10 minute walk from Wynns & Encore). It's also within walking distance of the light rail system. Hotel, rooms and pool were clean. The pool currently overlooks Wynns & Encore, but it's located just off the street and entrance to the garage. Therefore, you'll hear traffic noise. The pool area is not very big, so if there are noisy guests or kids you'll have nowhere to seek quietness. Free self parking offered. Very comfortable bed - double beds were not offered. Free connection to your airline check-in site is offered, so you can print your boarding pass in the lobby. Wireless connection is offered in your room. I would stay here again.

After a week in Marriott's Grand Chateau, we drove back to the airport where we got hit by a car and ende up in the hospital. We missed our flight and on doctor's advice we had to stay resting. So we said to a cab driver to tale us to the closest courtyard, as we know what kind of room and bed to expect. We didn't use too much the facilities, but stayed in the room basically for several days.

The room was okay and sufficient for our needs: two seperate beds, which helped dealing better with our injuries and bruizes. They had some items to buy: pills were handy, the bread offereings were a bit dull. We used the external room service, which we can not advice: they forgot an order and it was not too tasty (and a rather questionable eastern european (?) man came to deliver the food). But since we did not have to many other options, we had to use it.

I was surprised with the lack of compasion from the staff, they could see we were in pain: but no one talked to us if they could help or anything... The hotel quoted us a price at checkin, but did not inform us they would raise the price the second night. I complained and they used the original rate. We are frequent Marriott guests (silver level) and have had better experiences with Courtyard in europe. This was basically a business hotel for business people. (You see them dealing in the lobby and going to the convention center across the road). Not a hotel for families (even though they have a pool). It is off the strip, but neither that far away from it (behind the Wynn, sortof)...

For what we paid you can find a better price on the strip. I usually check travelcomparing.com for prices. The benefit for us, was that we did not have to walk so much in a huge hotel on the strip to get to our room with our suitcases... It helped us get through our time of pain.
