Reasons I'll never stay at this hotel again:
1) No elevators (at least in the courtyard rooms, where we stayed). You must haul your luggage up a staircase. After a long night of Vegas drinking, you'll need to brave the stairs again.
2) No coffee makers. Well, they do have them, but it's a $25/day fee if you want to "rent" a coffee maker for your room. There's also overpriced room service coffee, if you can justify the expense. I've NEVER stayed in a Vegas hotel (or ANY hotel that I can recall) that didn't come with a coffee maker. Waking up after a long night in Vegas, I certainly need coffee. Rather than spend an extra $25 for a coffee maker at Palace Station, I'll stay at another comparably priced hotel that doesn't charge for one. They're also stingy with towels; guests are provided with only one small-medium sized towel (no washcloths) unless you ask for more than that.
3) CLEANLINESS, or lack thereof. By far, the most DISGUSTING hotel room I've ever stayed in. Layers of dust on furniture, stains on carpet, and dirty window sills that obviously haven't been cleaned in forever. There was wallpaper peeling off the walls in our room, and a petrified piece of candy on the table next to the bed. Walking through the hotel wing, there was more peeling wallpaper and dirty floors/ walls, so I know it wasn't just our room. There was a stair rail that was attached to the wall by being shoved through the wallpaper, a picture screwed into the wall upside down (I informed a crew member, but it was still upside down when we left the next day) and an ENGRAVED sign that read "Team members please keep door close" rather than "closed." I often stay at the cheaper Vegas hotels, so my bar is set pretty low, but I've never stayed in a hotel this disgusting, tacky and unprofessional in my entire life!!
Walking through the casino, you'd never guess the hotel is in such bad shape. The casino lobby and gaming floor are nice. The employees are nice enough, and you can get the buffet for really cheap if you sign up for the free Boarding Pass card. We did the buffet for lunch and paid only $6.99 each, which includes soft drinks. Dinner is $7.99 and breakfast is $5.99. If you're looking for a Sizzler-quality buffet in Vegas for a great price, I'd definitely recommend this one. But take my advice, AVOID THE HOTEL!!
