The reviews for this hotel are pretty uneven. It seems like the people who gave the hotel a higher rating are the ones who actually stayed at the hotel, and the ones that gave it a lower rating are people who just came to play in the casino. I actually stayed here, and I was pleasantly surprised. This is one of the cheapest hotels in all of Las Vegas during the weekdays. I think I paid $20/night for four nights. I come to Vegas quite often, and I'm not here on vacation, so I don't mind staying at seedy hotels if all I need is a place to sleep and shower. This place isn't a seedy hotel at all. I stayed on the ninth floor in one of the tower rooms, and it had an amazing view of Stratosphere and that whole cluster of hotels. The beds and bathroom were very clean, the air condition was excellent, and there was a very comfortable sofa in the room, which is where I spent most of my time sitting. This is definitely an older hotel, so nothing in the room, or the entire hotel and casino for that matter, is going to look new and fresh. But it's very clean and comfortable. My only complaint is that the bathtub didn't drain very well, so after I finished taking a shower, I was standing ankle-deep in my own bath water. The casino isn't great. But then again, there isn't any place in Downtown Las Vegas that has a casino that compares to the hotels on The Strip. Half the casino smells like a Subway restaurant, because there's a 24/7 Subway there. There are slot machines and all the basic table games. The sportsbook area isn't great, and the security guards are very adamant about not allowing people to fall asleep while sitting and watching sports, so if you fall asleep, they'll wake you up and ask you to leave the area. The best perk of staying at this hotel is that Fremont Street is right outside, which is the main touristy area of Downtown Las Vegas. It's a fun area, full of restaurants and shops. I found a great hipster coffee shop across the street from the hotel, and I spent lots of time there with my laptop. Overall, this hotel is an excellent place to stay if you want to be in Downtown Las Vegas. If you're making a once in a lifetime kind of trip to Vegas, I'd recommend paying more and staying at one of the bigger, nicer hotels directly on The Strip. I've stayed in many hotels in this town, and this is definitely the most I've ever received for my money. I would definitely stay here again.
