| - This is not going to win any awards. If you're on vacation in Vegas, you'll probably want something nicer unless you're a grumpy old person who doesn't care about shitty coffee, kinda dirty rooms, and hallways that still have last night's drunken puke/Pine Sol smell floating about them. Of course, this is Vegas.
However, the front desk people are friendly enough, and the place is cheap. They also have passable Wi-fi... And what's more.... It's a very short walk to the Las Vegas Convention Center, WHICH MEANS:
If you're in Vegas to WORK, that is to say you're a journalist or an exhibitor attending CES or one of the other trade shows at the LVCC, this place is the best kept secret. Why pay three times the price if you're just using the room to crash out and type on your laptop?
So, if you're bringing your significant other, avoid this place. It's not sexy to hear a drunk old guy banging a ratty hooker in the next room. If, on the other hand, you want to avoid the overpriced hullabaloo and get some work done, I actually recommend this place.
On a side note, the staff informed me that they've really worked hard to beef up their internet. 15 new access points and a new router from their ISP with upgraded service. They also trained every employee about customer expectations for internet access and how to reset APs. Not bad. I just did a speedtest too:
