Nice but a tad dirty
Its a nice hotel/ casino ,the rooms are very nice,bed was comfortable but the room was pretty dirty ( floors and shower) the floor had vitamins from someone else the bathroom floor was filthy but the topper was a big black wade of someone elses black hair in shower AFTER we borh had just showered . I did go to desk and they were willing to have cleaners come in while we were gone ( they did) smelt cleaner but floors are still in need of more than a swiffer . Overall its nice just needs some cleaning .

So/so stay
On the website it states there is an airport transfer. There was no transfer. Also the AC/heater in the rooms thumps so loud when it turned off I thought someone was banging on our door. Barely slept. Once I turned it off to the remainder of our stay it was ok. I could hear all the rooms around us having that same issue though. It is 21 and over so if you are not a guest of the hotel don’t forget your ID they will ask for it. If you are a guest just show your wristband. Overall it was a nice stay. Some cool history about the hotel and really close to Fremont st.

Book it!
Love this hotel. Just make sure you book a room in the Tower. The rooms are newer and nicer. Very helpful staff. There’s a man that plays the piano in the lobby at certain times. Really nice extra touch. I recommend this hotel. The price is right and you can walk to Fremont Experience!

The rooms are big and pretty nice. The bars need some work. They advertised $10 margaritas in a suvinier cup but they was out . They gave me a small throw away cup for the same price. I asked later for a bloody mary and they didn't have that either.

Perfect price and location for what we needed
I was afraid being down on Fremont Street. It would be noisy, we stayed in the cabanas across from the casino. They were relatively quiet, except for some normal street noise. It wasn’t spotless, but it was relatively clean and tidy. All the rooms were a retro green, the bed was comfortable and no sign of any bedbugs. They had a safe and refrigerator, and our stay was Pleasant. Would stay there again.

Spend the extra money and stay somewhere else
First of all I know all these good reviews are lying. I booked this hotel after reading a lot of good reviews. I don’t usually stay off the strip as I’ve never had a good experience doing so, this solidified that further. The location is so amazing and the hotel itself is iconic so I was willing to deal with things being different. The women that checked us in was amazing and super nice. However the room was not updated like the photos show, it looks like it’s been the same since the 90s at least. Things were dirty or falling apart. And the worse part was you could clear as day hear a club down the street. Like I was in bed and the club at the same time. It was insane and bass was so high the building was literally vibrating. I know this is a busy part of town and I was expecting some noise, but this was honestly insane. I couldn’t fall asleep until the club closed at 3am. I know this is a party city, but we got in late and really needed some sleep. We were suppose to stay two nights but left after the first. They refused to change our room stating the hotel was booked out for the night but I still saw rooms available online. We ended up going to the Sahara instead the second night and it was much nicer. After a day of travel or fun you just want a quiet night of sleep and that’s not happening here unless you’re out until 3am.
