I have been a loyal guest of the El Cortez for many years and have always appreciated the fact that it is a 21+ property with consistently clean and comfortable rooms. Unfortunately, my most recent stay did not meet the standards I’ve come to expect. Upon arrival, I found the room to be unclean. The bathroom had visible mildew and mold beneath the sink, and the elevators were in unacceptable condition, with noticeable stains, urine, and even vomit on the floors and walls. This was extremely disappointing and uncharacteristic of the El Cortez I know and have enjoyed. Additionally, I was informed that the odds of winning a bonus on the slot machines are quite low, which was discouraging. The Cabana Suites, where I stayed, are in need of a modest refresh — not a full renovation, but some fresh paint and new linens would make a significant difference. My sheets even had holes in them, which further detracted from the experience. I want to emphasize that I have always loved this property and have had many positive experiences in the past. I truly hope management takes this feedback seriously and restores the level of quality and care that has always made the El Cortez such a special place to stay.

First room we couldn’t adjust the water temp in the shower! Moved us to a second room! Room was ok but floors needed to be vacuumed better and the shower tiles have a lot of rust marks in them. Had to put a hand towel down in the shower while showering to not stand in the rusty areas!
