    You have to keep things in perspective. I think the bad reviews are from people who expected more from a hotel on the Fremont strip. The owners have freshened it up pretty well. Bring your own soap and a better bath towel; those were the only weak links here. But otherwise, this place is a fine old-school small hotel. It's clean, quiet, convenient, and affordable.

    Room was disgusting, sheets were not washed and had dirt inside of the topper, the pillows had hair from what I assume was the previous guest. There was no hot water at all on my second day of staying. Electricity was out half of me and my wife’s stay. I went ti the management office and two different parties in front of me were asking for a refund per the electricity and water inconvenience. I naturally asked as well where the manager reassured us that would all certainly receive a refund for this inconvenience. I got an email and response later that my refund from the owner was denied. Do not stay here.

    Not bad rooms for the price but Shady characters there all day and night. I'm pretty sure the maintenance staff is part of the Shady characters. And check out is way too early when you can't check into your room until 3:00.

    You get what you paid lol. It was a good deal for us and also a must that is a pet friendly hotel. However need better cleaning service. The yellow cover was not washed and the shower shampoo and body wash was very dirty. Okey for a night
