Reviews and Ratings
I loved my stay at this hotel! The location was superb, close to bus stops that easily took me to the Las Vegas Strip. The rooms in the tower were spacious and well-equipped. The service was top-notch, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. However, the dining options, especially the Asian dishes, were not as varied as I had hoped. The facilities were great, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay at a good value.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its prime location close to the airport shuttle and convenient access to the Fremont market. The service was excellent, but the dining options were limited. The room in the main tower offered a stunning view, although the extra bed felt cramped. The facilities were top-notch, but the price was a bit high for the overall experience.
The hotel is perfectly situated, just steps away from downtown with a charming view of the city. The rooms are cozy with extra beds available for families. The beds are incredibly comfortable, offering a restful night's sleep. However, the price may be a bit high for some travelers. Service is exceptional, especially at the reception desk, making you feel welcomed and valued. The location is almost everything you need for an exciting stay, except that it's a bit of a maze of slot machines before you reach the exits. Dining options are superb, especially the hash browns that are a must-try. On the downside, some facilities could use a bit of an upgrade, although they serve their purpose well.
The hotel is centrally located with easy access to the Las Vegas Strip and downtown attractions. The rooms are spacious and come with great amenities, but the view from some may not be the best. The staff provides excellent service, making the stay very comfortable. However, the dining options could be more diverse, and the price may not fully match the value offered.

The location was convenient, close to bus stops that took me to the Las Vegas Strip easily. However, the dining options were limited, and the price was slightly on the higher side.
The hotel is ideally located in the center of everything, making it convenient for exploring the area, but the noise from the slot machines in the surrounding maze can be distracting. The rooms are modern and spacious, equipped with great amenities, but the toilets in the tower are unexpectedly longer, which may not suit everyone's preference.
