I have stayed here twice in '07 once on business and once for pleasure.

Standard rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable and at $39.00 per night they are the bargain of the year! Hotel is centrally located in downtown Reno, and walking distance to all that downtown offers.

Casino is bright and lots of 24 hour gaming action is available. Two small bars on the first and second floor definitely need new staff as on both my visits the staff was slow and the service was poor. Also the advertised drink specials were not available on both occasions at the second floor bar (due to low stock I was told)?

For the price and accommodations I would stay here again but ask for a 4th or 5th floor room and avoid the elevators! Slowest elevators in the world and they don't hide that fact, but it starts to get annoying after the first few days!

Check in is quick and the bell desk is very helpful in handling your luggage for and early check in or late check out.

Buffet and restaurants are good, but the menu does not change much in the buffet so once you eat there a few times it gets routine fast.

Parking is free for guests, but the parkade is across the street. You also will need a validation stamp on your ticket from the front desk every time you leave the parkade or you'll be charged. During high check in periods its a real pain waiting for the stamp.

Overall I'll rate this hotel a 7 out of 10 and would stay here again.

If your driving accross the country this would be good place to stop. The price is right and food is what you would expect at any 24 hour New Jersey dinner.

Parking is the main problem here if you like to self park. There is more than enough parking once you fing the deck. Parking is free for hotel guests but charges way to much for others. Mainly because of the Bowling center is katty-corner from this parking deck. Once you now your way around the deck has a great view of the "reno" sign and is just a blocks walk to the main entrance. This is not much of a walk when compared to Vegas parking decks.

This hotel is great for those looking to get a quick look at Reno since most of the downtown action area is less than 4 blocks away from this place.

Had a mini -suite worth the extra bucks it provides a fridge and a couch that are better than most mid level hotels.

Everybody knows the elevators here are SLOW and they are proud of it. It slow but it goes.

We have been visiting the Reno area for many years. At one time had family there, and enjoy going back for brief vacations.

We have been staying at Fitzgeralds for the past several years. Just found out about this website and wanted to share our experiences with you. We have been return customers because of the friendly staff, location, and reasonable rates. It's a small casino so your not over whelmed, and they offer most all amenities.

Please give it a try next time you visit Reno.

The $32 Sunday-to-Monday overnight rate (before tax) I got in early March 2005 got me to book the Fitz.

Plusses during my stay: The buffet at breakfast (actually quite good, and I'm pretty picky) • The bell and car park staff • The front desk reps • Spacious rooms, clean bathrooms

Minuses: The distinct smoke that hung on the bedspread, curtains, carpet, and upholstery despite having requested and allegedly receiving a NONSMOKING room • The elevators that could use some Ex-Lax • Lack of dataport phones in the rooms
