I would say I give this place 3.5 stars.
I got a flyer for 2 nights free and took advantage of it. Everything was free except the $11 a day fee, which a lot of the hotels were doing so I was fine.
The hotel was walking distance to Fremont Street which was nice. This was my first time in downtown and I like it. Looser slots. Less crowd. True walking distance, you dont have to fight traffic to park in a garage to walk 10 min before getting to the casino. Location was not at Fremont but a block away so just far enough.
Valet was free and self parking is free but you need to get validation before leaving the hotel.
I booked for a king bed and confirmed 2 times that I will be checking in very late Friday night. As I get there the lady told me they are out of king begs and asked if 2 queen was fine. Then she said we can check tomorrow morning and see if any rooms open up. So I said ok but wasn't super ok. So she made some phone calls and was able to get me a room in the opposite tower.
It was no the nosier side but I was tired and can sleep thru noise. They do give you a pair of ear plugs.
Bathroom was a stand up shower for our suite. I looked on the emergency map and it does appears there are some tubs in some room. We got the corner suite so it was slightly bigger.
They took away our floor towel the 2nd day so we had to use our bath towel for the floor. There are no shower doors so it does get wet. Toilet requires 2 flush and you must hold it down.
There is complimentary water but they decided not to give us water the 2nd day as well. Not sure why the service was so bad. I give them the benefit of doubt because if I really wanted I could have asked room service to bring it but I didn't.
The pillows were huge and nice. Blanket was thin. AC was loud and room stayed pretty warm.
The renovation made the hotel look new. My guess is this hotel is more new looking than the others in the area so it was a good transition from the strip for me.
