| - After searching for deals at various hotels, I finally decided to try out Elara. It ended up being a good decision! I received a free upgrade from a Studio to a Junior Suite when booking through the hotel's website. The room was a great value for the price we paid.
The room looked amazing! The living room has a TV and a mini-kitchen with a microwave, coffee pot, dishes & utensils, sink, and dishwasher. The couch was a pullout and could easily fit two people. In the bedroom was a king bed, TV, and large jacuzzi. The bathroom was spacious and also included a small TV. Both the living room and bedroom had huge floor-to-ceiling windows with screens that you can move up and down with the press of a button.
The hotel room was fairly clean. The sheets, pillows, etc. all seemed freshly washed, but I noticed the dresser, night tables, etc. were all very dusty. Seemed like they put in the effort to replace/clean the necessary things in the bedroom and bathroom, but don't bother to wipe down other things.
Hotel service can be a bit slow at times. We called for more towels, shampoo, conditioner, etc. and ended up having to wait over an hour for someone to stop by and drop them off. I was surprised when I saw that the brand of the shampoo, conditioner, and body lotion was Peter Thomas Roth (great brand)!
The women who checked us in and out of the hotel room were both very friendly. We arrived a few hours early before the official check in time (4pm) and had no problem getting a room. We were also requested to check out one hour later than the usual time (10am).
I wouldn't mind staying here again if they offer another promotion like the free upgrade. it is in a good location (center of the strip) and is connected to the Miracle Mile shops. The main downsides were that the hotel didn't have it's own self-parking structure and it took way too long for them to bring stuff to our room.
