| - Here's the run-down.
Super-cheap even on a Saturday night, booked last minute (yes, we wimped out on camping on an unusually cold and rainy day).
Large. Did you know that this is the largest Super 8 in the world? In case you missed that, just look at the humongous sign proclaiming this to the world right in front of the place. Well, it's Vegas after all.
Free coffee drink machine. I'm not just talking about free coffee in the rooms either (yes, we had that too). This is a drink machine that made hot chocolate, lattes, cappucinos, espressos etc. Drink up to your heart's desire. Very nice on a cold night.
Direct Access to Ellis Island Casino, which turns out to be a brewery. A brewery in Las Vegas! Why am I surprised? Don't forget the steak dinner special. One of the best meal deals on the strip. (Tip: this is not on the menu -make sure you ask the waitress about it)
Room was standard sized and seemed clean. Note, emphasis on seemed.
I've stayed at many a motel and the Super 8 Las Vegas was pretty darn good for a cheap motel. Sure, the walls were thin, the place was noisy (it's a motel in Vegas- what do you expect?!), but I would have given this place 4 stars EXCEPT...after walking around in our room for a while barefoot, I noticed that our feet were black on the bottom. Yep, that's how clean the carpets were. Seriously disgusting. Good thing they had the free coffee drinks or I might have dropped it down to two stars.
