Pet friendly stay in a great location. The text/email communication made for a very cool and easy check in. Rooms were cute. Would definitely stay again.
Super conveniently located right next to Stateline Boulevard. About one block from the main casinos. Easy parking. Very clean if somewhat basic room. No complaints at all and I would happily stay here again.
The room was very clean but It was pricey for what it was. We were also charged more than quoted as
We were charged $50 for a hotel fee and not sure why. There was no breakfast or even an office.
Honestly the best hotel. Staff was really nice, room was really clean, parking was easy. The location was perfect with a 5 minute walk to harrah’s snd other casinos. We stay in a lot of hotels and this was probably one of my favorites. They are pet friendly, we didn’t bring ours this time but to know they have dog blankets and towels in your room to dry off your dog was a big win in my book. I typically don’t stay in the same hotel twice, this one I definitely will be back.
Very nicely updated rooms, very clean. Beds very comfortable. 1/3 of the rooms are on the bottom floor and noise transfers very easily. Make sure you get a top floor room or single story room.
