We were greeted with friendly staff which made our checking process very positive. Unfortunately we didn’t like the fact that one of their elevators tot he north tower was not functioning properly and were unable to scan to our floor. We asked for help but each time had to wait around for second elevator to reach bottom floor. This is not acceptable and we will not return to this hotel. We also didn’t enjoy noise factor from street.

3rd time staying at El Cortez :)

Had the BEST time. Love that our hotel is walking distance from Fremont/Old Town Vegas. Absolutely love that we get FREE parking :) the only thing we weren't happy about this time around was that our mattress was super misshapen is Room 1001, 10th floor. There was a huge sunk in part on both sides of the bed right where we layed. Please get that mattress replaced! Other than that so happy with our stay once again. See you in a year Vegas lol

Cheapest and best Vegas vacation I’ve ever had.

I couldn’t give 5 stars for cleanliness just because of the build up of scum that’s on the showers edges. It was like a 5/10 clean shower. Other than that AMAZING room, amazing customer service, the rest of the room was totally clean and smelled good. The maid service was great. I really loved everything here. Photos of food are from sushi ichiban, eureka!, and Siegel’s 1941. Seriously great restaurants all right next to the hotel. This set up is crazy, downtown Vegas is its own little town with EVERYTHING!

Horrible parking lot security guard

The evening I pulled into the Cortez Free parking lot my wife and I were stopped by the parking security guard. We felt was harassed by her. She ran out of the guard shack to stop us and treated us like crap because she wanted us to stop before proceeding, there was no gate or sign indicating we needed to stop. She then starts aggressively asking if we were guests and asked for id then mistakes my wife as a minor in the back seat and starts to tell us the rules for minors in the casino. First and last time staying their.
