The property is aging, but the room was clean and the view from the 7th floor where we stayed is unequalled. The property is close to so many amenities.

Was not a fan of this stay. I initially pretty excited to be downtown but the property was easily the worst looking property on the strip. There was dirt in pool, sketchy elevator, the rooms felt unclean and weirdly decorated. The room was also SO HOT with no AC. There was only a plug in fan available. The mini fridge in the room didn’t work. The only positive was how big the bathtub was. Could easily fit two people. Overall, not worth the 120 bucks for one night, no an enjoyable experience.

Horrible property! Extremely dirty and very rude staff. My parents stayed in the ADA suite and their shower knob was broken. The staff made zero efforts to fix it. We had to call them twice the next day to come fix it.
