Stay at Circus Circus Hotel

The hotel was clean except for the carpet, I think it needs to be changed. The employees were all very nice and very willing to help. I would have liked a fridge and microwave. It was a distance from the strip and downtown but transportation was close by and easy to use. Over all I liked the hotel.

NEVER go here

We absolutely did not stay here! We walked into the room and left. This facility is awful. I cannot believe that people would bring their families here. Very creepy with unsavory people around. Did not feel safe there, so we left right away.

I loved this place!

Before my trip when I read all the reviews I have to say I was very skeptical in what I was in for when arriving. But from the minute I got there till the minute I left I was amazed. The staff went above and beyond to help my sister and I's needs. This hotel was beautiful and very accommodating. I for sure will be staying here next time I come to Vegas! Thank you for a wonderful trip guys!

More than OK, not excellent

Could use a coffee maker in the room, as it is quite a ways to go from Skyrise Tower to West Side deli. A fridge is a must for any hotel room, but lacking in mine. Food is very average everywhere, better value for money at Denny's, just a block south across the strip. Location great, Deuce bus at the door both ways ($8.00 / 24 hours unlimited ride up and down strip). Hotel very clean, friendly helpful staff everywhere.
