Great place to stay for the value. Rooms were very clean and spacious and was a great deal. Centrally located and easy access to just about anything you could want to do. Service was also very good, we dropped our bags off at the check in when we arrived and our room was available 2 hours early for no additional charge. Was also nice to be a block off the main strip so it was quiet and peaceful at night without trying to sleep through music blasting at midnight. Would highly recommend

My experience staying in a regular-rate room: It's a room with a bed in it. It has a sink, toilet and shower. Tiny fridge. No microwave. TV did not work. Comfortable bed and sheets. Nice person at the check-in desk. I felt safe. Very close to everything, including Von's. You get what you pay for, and I wanted a safe, private budget room near everything. If inexpensive, funky lodging is your thing, this is your jam.
