6/10 Good

The charge of $10 to be able to take a plate back to your room is a bit much especially when the eating area is small so even when there’s no where to sit you either have to stand up or go back and wait till hopefully you can get to sit

Nice and comfortable

Beds were comfortable and a nice place to stay. Rosie (front desk clerk) was very welcoming. She was able to extend our stay for one more night, which we did not plan. All was nice, just would like to see a little more effort put into the complimentary breakfast. Also, hotel was not far from the Golden Nugget casino. Other than that, I would stay at this place again!

Love the location convenient for where I needed to be. Very disappointed with the Wi-Fi it did-not work my full weekend stay & the carpet could use a good shampoo.

Bed was comfortable. Area and hotel were quiet. shower leaks all over bathroom floor. Only 1 tv by bed, none in sitting area. Lamps are rusted. No smart tv so no streaming services.

2/10 Poor

The room smelled of mildew, so pungent. It would wake you up during the night. Honestly, this place is likely a health hazard, and should be decommissioned.
Samuel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property itself was clean and nice. We were in a four person room with only three ppl only got two towels which wasnt enough so I had to go out and buy some towels. There was a overpowering smell from cleaning and it wasnt the greatest of smells. Staff was super friendly morning and night.
Brittany, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel smelled bad. Mold. There was no milk for cereal. Nothing else to eat. No fruit. All around terrible place. Please take them off your places to stay.

Horrible

The room reeked of mildew smell.. the wifi sucked the bed was hard the pillows was small... the side doors didn't work... the breakfast was horrible i didn't even try to eat it... i definitely would not recommend this hotel.. its outdated... the room was not clean we had to clean it ourselves

6/10 Good

I really wanted to give a great review due to the staff being so friendly but unfortunately the property itself doesn’t warrant it. It is dingy and musty inside once you leave the lobby area. The first room I had smelled like old mildewed carpet and urine. I spoke with the gentleman at the front desk which he quickly accommodated changing me to a different room. The moment I stepped into the second room I realized that was as good as it was going to get. The carpets in the room must have never changed which I think lead to the strong musty oder. The lighting was very dim and the phone didn’t work. There were even some used towels hanging on the side of the tub. I went next door and bought a can of Lysol and air freshener just to tough it out for the night but I will NEVER let me repeat NEVER stay at this property again!!!
Donishia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I could only give a 1 because they don’t allow 0

Was told to go in side door that wouldn’t unlock. Air conditioner sounded like a semi truck all night. Bed was uncomfortable. Tv had to be turned to full blast just to hear a little. Shower had so little water coming out you couldn’t get clean. Breakfast was the worst. Juice machine didn’t work. Ran out of coffee by 6:15. Food was not much and no flavor. DONT STAY HERE!!!

Getaway

The hotel was close to the things we wanted to do. The beach was 6 minutes away, the casino was 13 minutes away not to far from the hotel. The hotel air was on you felt the cold air but it wasnt projecting around the room. The bathroom door wouldn't lock, the clock was making noise i had to unplug it. The key cards kept deactivating, breakfast time can be a lil longer it ends at 9 most hotels end at 10. You can not take a plate back to the room they charge $10.00 so everyone must go to breakfast if you dont want to be charged. The outside grass wasnt manicured. The house keepers was nice and friendly they did refreshed our towels. In the bathroom the stopper was on the side of the tub and the shower head was loose. We saw one water bug while in the room. The breakfast was okay but i didnt go back to breakfast the next day. The price of the room wasnt bad i guess the old saying u get what u pay for. If im ever in the area i would try another hotel. The bed was big n comfy the covers was light but do to the air wasnt projecting much the light covers worked out.

I chose this hotel bec of good review but this is old hotel. Was hard to open door, had to change rm bec thermostat not working but eventually did. Changed rm. Aircon ok. Bathroom needs to be remodeled - shower curtain needs to be replaced. Paper towel hotel rusty. Replace bathtub faucet - very difficult to determine hot/cold. Needs Bleach spray cleaner for corners of tub. It's brown not white. All towels need to be replace. Very thin & not too white. Bed pillows very uncomfortable. Breakfast not up to par w other Best Western.

Most of this property was nice except one major thing. We found a few roaches in our room. One in the bathroom and one in the main room. That scared my wife.
