Horrible Hotel

I was really disappointed at how slow the check in process was at this hotel. It seemed like the employees did not know how to use the software to check people into the hotel. My reservation was conveniently lost by the hotel and I had to spend almost an entire hour on the phone to get my reservation taken care of. The hotel also charged me an additional 44 dollars once I completed the check in process.

Great Place for the Family

Never stayed here before and it was the first time we came to Vegas as a family. Best place for kids. We stayed in the tower closest to the Adventure Dome and the restaurants, it was perfect. There was a slight problem with the plumbing in the bathroom however the staff quickly upgraded my room.

Not sure if you have a kid....

I was looking for a deal and there happened to be three hotels with reasonable prices within the Vegas strip. I wasn't too sure how far this hotel was from the heart of the strip since it was my first trip. I thought it wasn't far at all from the map. I was dead wrong. I think I had to walk good 1/2 mile to a mile (not really sure, but felt that way) to get to where I wanted. It was somewhat manageable distance and I ended up renting a car anyways. Staffs were very nice and the room was clean. Internet was slow and the cable was limited to very few channels (then again, you are not there to watch TV). I booked the trip to stay there during a weekday and I figured there wouldn't be many kids there. I was dead wrong, yet again. This is a hotel that is tailored for kids and even when it is not busy, there are more kids than adults. I would say, it's not a bad hotel overall (if you have a large family). You probably want to rent a car however, that is, if you didn't bring your own ride. FYI, people get lost in this hotel more often than you can imagine. Skyrise tower is away from the main building and there only one way to get there if you are entering from the main entrance. Definitely spent extra time figuring that out. I found several people in a same boat as us each day.

Nice for a cheap room.

The room was cheap. Check in was a hassle; they couldn't find my reservation. Good thing i came prepared. It took a whole day for housekeeping to bring my fridge. The room was clean, but had yucky yellow stuff on the walls. The stairwell smelled like homeless people, and the pool closed at 6pm! What pool closes at 6pm?!?!

Average at best!

This was our first trip to Vegas. We arrived at 1:45pm with check-in time of 2:00pm. Waited in line for 45 minutes to get a room. Got to room and it wasn't ready for occupancy. It was a complete mess. Were given another room which was already occupied. Finally got a room on the 3rd try. This hotel is average at best. The price is reasonable for what you get. My wife and I ate at the West End Deli and Rock 'n Rita's. The food was good with a fair price. Since this is a family oriented hotel there were unsupervised kids running around everywhere. The casino needs to updated since it's dark and dingy looking. Other than the debacle at check-in our stay was uneventful.
