Cool room

We booked the 2 king room. It was a really cool room. Iā€™ve never stayed in a hotel room with an upstairs. One king bed and bathroom is to the right when you walk into the room and straight ahead upstairs is another king bed and full bathroom. Both upstairs and downstairs had a balcony that overlooked the parking lot and you could see the lights of downtown. Itā€™s a great room for sharing with your kids or other adults since the space is so divided. It was clean and the beds were comfortable but it definitely needs some updates. But for the price who could complain? The continental breakfast was convenient and had plenty to choose from. I like that there arenā€™t any stairs up to the second floor but ramps instead. Makes bringing your luggage up very easy. Overall itā€™s a great place to stay with a good price and walking distance to downtown.

Simple and convenient room at a fair price! Loved that it was on the river and at the beginning of the strip, right by Ober mountain. Our stay was during what they call ā€œ Hell weekā€, so having a room pretty much right on the strip made it easy to be able to take a quick break from the crowds. Everything was truly within walking distance, so there was no paying for parking us!

Needs some improvements and renovations

The room does not look the same as advertised on the website. They need to renovate the rooms. They had a safe with no key bolted to the floor, outdated air conditioners that were very difficult to control to correct settings, and not very safe for children. Our daughter fell into the tub because it is not tall enough. The location is good for the price but it deff needs some remodeling.
