Have no illusions: this is not a *great* place to stay. In relative terms, it's kind of a fleabag. Not filthy, but not super clean, either. But if you're going to Vegas on a budget (say, under $40 a night on a website deal), this place is as good as any, and it's certainly no worse than the Quad on the Strip. Here are some random thoughts: They have a shuttle to the Strip every hour between 6am and 11am, so that's good. But it's a $15 cab ride back from the Strip, which can eat into your hotel savings. The people who work at the Best Western are really, really nice all around. Very pleasant and helpful. The wifi is excellent (15+ mbps) and works most of the time (although it was overloaded one morning and I couldn't get on). The TV choices are straight out of 1989: 15 channels, maybe, so it's good that they have good wifi so you can watch video on your machine. The "casino" is a complete dump. The restaurant on-site serves nothing even remotely healthy, although they have some nice restaurant choices half a mile south. But the room has a mini fridge, so buy some provisions at an Albertson's if you want a decent breakfast. Bring your own coffee and small filters, as they have an 6-cup coffeemaker in the room. The shower is surprisingly good. The couch/pull-out bed is an uncomfortable sit. The pillows on the bed feel like a bag full of socks. The room doesn't smell too bad. The walls are super thin--you can hear water running in the sinks next door. All in all, if you're planning to spend hardly any time in the room or the hotel in general and just need a place to crash, this place works fine. But if your plan in Vegas is to have people stop by to party in your room, or to pick up some strange for a "What happens in Vegas ..." experience, then spend the money for a nicer place.
