This is a terrific hotel for anyone looking for a quiet place to stay in LV.
The concept is terrific: peaceful, clean, healthy, green. The lobby has a green tea scent that we really liked. We called ahead and got a reduced rate from what the website offered and clearance to bring our 65 lb golden retriever. It is a pet friendly hotel and we were grateful for that. We forgot a dog bowl but they hooked us up.
The rooms are quaint -- even a little tight if you use the pull out couch --- but the space is useful... Like a modern loft. Great sink and showerhead with no little plastic bottles to end up in a landfill. Room also has a nice sized HDTV that rotates so it can be used if you're at the desk, in bed or in the kitchenette.
The free breakfast was just right -- warm breakfast sandwiches, mini fruit smoothies, pastries, etc. On Saturday they added pancakes, sausage and eggs.
Pool looked small but nice - my parents used it - free cabanas and outside towels.
Only complaints would be that rooms facing the 215 freeway will hear a good deal of highway noise. The Element is practically on top of it... So request a room on the quiet side. Also, the grounds are minimalist desert landscape -- fits the green concept but if you bring a dog there isn't grass anywhere in the area...a nice park is about a mile away.
My wife & I were very impressed with the Element and will return and look for other Elements in different cities.
