The staff definitely stood out. Super helpful and friendly - can't emphasize this enough. The room was big and clean. I also loved the area. A cute, small town with the old Vegas feel to it. When I come back, I plan on staying here again!

This cute, retro hotel was near a beautiful shopping area in the old town of Boulder City. Very friendly, welcoming staff, and spacious room. Safe and quiet. Everything in the room worked and it was very clean. A nice, fair rate, especially considering the area. Our only complaint was that our room had limited supply of hot water for two showers, but we'd stay again even with that. This is because of the great room and grounds, room delivery of one extra blanket, very, very fast Wi-fi, and easy check in and check out. Safe, available parking in the lot. Highly recommend!

We liked the room and bathroom. The only complaint is the rod for hanging up clothes is way too high and the racks for towels in bathroom too high!! Not everyone is tall.
