| - It seemed like a no-brainer to book a night at the Hoover Dam Lodge for the day we were at the Hoover Dam, because it was so close.
After visiting the dam, we were excited to check into the hotel, and immediately take advantage of the pool. However, that did not happen since their check-in time is at four o'clock, and not the three o'clock like most other hotels have.
The room was big; too big, to be honest. It had a lot of empty space inside, almost like it was meant to hold another bed. But, the bed we had was very comfortable. They didn't have any vending machines on our floor, but there was a twenty-four-convenience store located on the ground level, which served my late night, diet soda cravings.
The pool was the perfect escape from the blistering weather. It wasn't too cold, so jumping in didn't give us a shock. It is small, so it does fill up fast. Also on sight is a hot tub, which we did briefly use. It was nice for relaxing, minus the jets that shot water over a foot in the air. Leaving them off is probably the best way to maximize comfortability.
We had late night drinks at the bar. Two tall glasses of White Russians cost me only $10.50, which is a steal.
Overall, this place is decent. If you plan on finding something close to the Hoover Dam, then this is definitely the way to go.
Take note that they will take a $50.00, refundable deposit upon check-in.
