The girl at the front desk did not have a clue on how to check people in. I requested a handicap accessible room when I did my reservation. We did not get a handicap accessible room even though she told me she would find us one. On my second day, my room key did not work. I stood in line at the desk while she tried to check other people in for a long time she had no clue on how to find people’s reservations. The breakfast was cold on the first morning and on the second morning the little muffins were not filled. Our TV did not work, but the maintenance man gave us a new one.

The pet rooms have carpet and you could see urine stains in multiple places. Sadly this was the worse night of sleep we have ever had in a hotel. Room was very stuffy and we woke up very congested. I believe this was due to the old carpet that has been soiled on who knows how many times. Great location on the strip but will never stay there again.

One good thing- the indoor pool for the kids. However propertywise, the showers were barely functional, dripping low pressure and barely warm. To choose from at the included breakfast was an empty container, a container of several hard boiled eggs floating in water, and a container of reheated old tasting sausages. It was VERY low effort, no one attending to it. Upon checkin- I cancelled for that following night in advance as needed AT checkin, was assured it was no problem by the desk worker, as I had originally booked 2 nights. The next morning at check out the manager came over from her office to tell me that I would still be charged. Also that Expedia had not communicated with them as I had been told they would. Basically I was accused of not handling it correctly or lying. I had let the worker at the front desk know upon check in, and ALSO the third party site THAT DAY, who assured me it would be cancelled. But upon telling her the morning of checkout she interrupted me speaking saying "if you will listen" loudly like I was a scolded child, talking over me. I was being polite up until that point, thought it wasn't worth dealing with such a person we will just unfortunately leave a bad review and never stay there again, making sure we tell everyone we know who also vacations in that area to avoid this property at all costs.

I wanted to share feedback regarding our recent stay. We specifically selected a pet-friendly room not because we were traveling with pets, but because when we asked about the difference, we were informed that the pet-friendly rooms did not have carpet. Ironically, the regular carpeted rooms were actually cheaper than the pet-friendly option we booked. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the room we were assigned did have carpet and did not resemble the photos shown online. Upon entering, the room had a noticeable unpleasant odor, and the bathroom was also not what we expected. The bathtub appeared very worn and in need of repairs, rather than updated as the photos suggested. We did not request a room change because we were traveling with a group attending an event that weekend, and the hotel was completely full, with our entire group staying there. Last night we turned on the air conditioning for the first time because the room was warm. The unit did not seem to function properly and appeared to have not been cleaned in quite some time. Shortly after turning it on, we began experiencing sore throats, sneezing, and discomfort. By around 1 a.m. we turned it off, but we still could not sleep. At 3 a.m. we decided to leave the hotel, especially because we had two minors with us and did not want them to get sick. We travel to this area every year around the same time, and this was our first time trying this hotel, so it was very disappointing for our family. Unfortunately, we are cur

The room was clean when we arrived. We were given a sheet with instructions/tips but it wasn’t very clear. We had a misunderstanding with trying to get housekeeping to come. We realized that putting out the door sign that said “maid service needed” was treated as a DND sign. The breakfast seemed to dwindle as the week went on. The hotel is in a great location and in walking distance to many great things and check in/out was easy. Overall, we had a good time.

We liked our room, the bathroom was clean, no water stains and shower worked well. Clean towels, plenty of Dove shampoo, body wash and conditioner and body lotion, hair dryer, microwave and frig all worked. The only and very inconvenient problem was the TV!!! We couldn't get the cable to work, after the maintenance guy fixed it, we couldn't get it back, he mentioned the channels would not save in the memory. No batteries? Broken smart TV? Also the remote was hard to operate too. The breakfast was terrible. By 9am , ran out of boiled eggs the first day we stayed, the next day, ran out of sausages when breakfast was offered until 10a. No replenish!! There were no fruits, no waffles, no pancakes, just 1 boiled egg left, bagels/toast, corn flakes, 1 yogurt and orange juice and coffee. The indoor pool was also closed.
