| - This is my new Company Preferred hotel in Las Vegas and I'm glad they selected it! For business travel, this is as good as it gets. The only thing that I miss that I would find in a full service hotel is a restaurant and bar.
This almost brand new hotel (opened end of 2008) is very conveniently located, close to Mandalay Bay (actually, walking distance, across the freeway, if you don't mind walking a couple of quick miles). As previous reviewers have pointed out, the road system around this maze can be a bit confusing since roads that logically must intersect, don't! But once you have your bearings, getting in and out of here is a breeze!
Hotel parking can be an issue - there are about three other hotels in the immediate vicinity and I'm sure the parking spills over between the hotels. I did not have a problem during any of my stays but I can see that it could be an issue on days when the hotels are all full.
~ 4 stars for accessibility and parking
The lobby is wide open, with high open ceilings. The breakfast room is situated to your right as you enter the hotel and the check-in desk straight ahead. Check-in staff was extremely courteous when we checked in, recognizing me by name, status and company. Nice personal touch. Easy check-in process.
Elevators are situated all the way down a hallway towards the rear of the hotel so it is a bit of a walk. Also, this hotel has only 5 floors so they have a hydraulic elevator so it's really slow (but brand new)
~ 5 stars for general ambiance and service
My room was fabulous - a large living room area with a full kitchen that was as big as the one back home. Fully equipped with a full size stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and cooking range/oven. It is also fully stocked with plates, dishes, cutlery, knives and cooking/serving utensils - everything you'd need to cook a full meal except the ingredients themselves. A welcoming bag of popcorn and cookies and M&M's completed the picture.
A small closet door inside the kitchen holds a full size washer and dryer - impressive indeed!!
Living room is huge - with a table that can seat 6 to 8 people comfortably. Living room has a large sectional sofa that also pulls out into a bed, a large 37" LCD TV and a door leading to a balcony that had a table with seating for 4 people. Wow!
The bedroom is cozy, with a queen sized bed, its own 37" LCD TV with its own remote and plenty of closet space. Yu can also access the balcony from the bedroom.
The bathroom is huge, with a separate bath tub area with double sinks and a separate shower stall/toilet area with yet another sink. Yes, THREE sinks in total. Wow! again =) And I have always enjoyed the convenience of a separate shower stall, though this one is pretty tight, considering the size of the bathroom - that would be my only gripe.
~ 5 stars for the room - granted, the hotel is new, but still very very impressive for a budget hotel like this.
Finally, free Wi-Fi and free breakfast. Breakfast was adequate - nothing to write home about but it was fresh, hot and free. So, no complaints.
All for a $89 rate - can't beat this!!!
~ 5 stars overall for a great comfortable stay with easy access to everything. If you're a business traveler staying more than a few days, you should consider this hotel - it will make your stay a lot nicer!
