My toddler daughter and I stayed for 3 nights. Check in was very pleasant, easy, and informative. They let us check in a little early because the room was ready. The other associate at the desk remembered my name and reassured me that my special request of a downstairs room had been filled. We got a map with our keys, and a reminder about when and where breakfast would be.
Parking was easy for us. Not every room has a spot in front of it, but there is plenty of parking in my opinion.
I stayed in room 409. The room was as clean as room of this motel style can be in a location like this. If you've stayed near the Strip in a chain motel then you'll understand what I mean. It was very clean considering how inconsiderate other guests can be. Nothing gross or unidentifiable, no weird stains, no weird smells. Not a hint of cigarette smoke.
The bath was very clean. The shower has a curved bar and magnets in the bottom so it actually keeps water in. THE SHOWER ACTUALLY HAD PRESSURE AND HOT WATER AND DIDN'T JUST SHOOT OUT MIST. It was glorious. I actually got to rinse the conditioner out of my hair! All the fixtures worked, nothing was broken. There is a vanity area with a separate seat, lots of closet space, and good lighting.
The kitchenette was not needed, but it had a 2 burner electric stove, a sink, and a ton of cabinet space. The microwave worked very well and was clean, and the mini fridge was as good as you find at most motels. It was clean with no weird smells.
The AC was great. There's a guard on it to keep your curtains from flying up so people can't see in. It worked very well and wasn't too loud at all.
There's plenty of lighting and electrical outlets for charging phones etc.
The beds are ok, but some people may not like them. I didn't hate them, but they are a little.... Spring-filled, haha. They never squeaked but they felt like they should. Regardless, we slept just fine on them and didn't have any problems. Bedding was clean, no sign of bugs anywhere (I always check), and the pillows were very nice.
The TV is a little annoying because it has a lot of empty HD channels that just take up space and make it take forever to channel surf. I only mention this because kids can be super impatient... And some adults to, tbh. Otherwise lots of good channels and a decent sized TV.
It was really quiet concerning other guests, except one family upstairs was having a door slamming competition, I think. But I couldn't hear anything from the other rooms like TV or talking, so that's all I care about.
I know some people complained about the airplanes taking off, but that's really hit or miss depending on your room location and the time of day or night. I have lived by lots of airports and train tracks so they don't bother me. My 2 and a half year old slept through all the planes. Every one of them. So it really depends on your tolerance for noises. It can be loud, so use your bet judgement.
There were some "not sketchy but still smelled like weed" types in the parking lot just going about their business, but that's sort of expected in Vegas and in this area, so that's not the motel's fault. And you gotta remember that this is Paradise, so you might have folks coming in from the street soliciting. Just say "Sorry, man," and keep walking, and you should be fine.
10/10 for me. Very good stay, and I would definitely stay again.
