This was my family's first trip to Vegas and we were flying blind when it came to hotels and restaurants but we felt like we hit the jackpot with staying in this hotel!
The rates were great, the food is great, the service is great! I did not meet one single staff member that was not friendly and happy to see us. I think that says a lot for how they are treated as employees.
I love the history of the hotel and the surrounding area. It was close enough to drive to the strip but far enough away to offer a desert get away feel. We had many options for sight seeing from this location including Hoover Dam, sight shot to connect to the highway for London Bridge, and the strip. If you are traveling with kids, I highly recommend taking a ride on the Nevada State Railroad Museum train which can be seen from the hotel.
If you are looking for glitter covered everything, do not stay here. This place is small compared to what the strip offers and not as showy. I recommend staying at this place for the old country feel and the amazing history that it holds.
The only negative point I have is that the room did not have a bath tub, just a stand alone shower. This I do not hold against the hotel because we failed to inform them we had a toddler with us and needed a bath tub for our stay.
I loved this hotel and will for sure be back.
