    The vanity mirror was cracked already. I told the clerk at checkout, she didn't seem bothered.
    NB A.

    Location: downtown Reno but not right next to the casinos. It is literally across the street from the Reno Aces baseball stadium and alongside the scenic Truckee River flowing by below the hotel bank. Parking: $15/night. In the multilevel parking garage across the street; the garage also houses business offices. Note: there isn't much vertical clearance; the large pickup trucks I saw were almost scraping the ceiling pillars. Cost: $510 for 2 nights for a regular room with 2 queen beds, nothing special. $205 for a Tuesday night, $215 for Wednesday, and assorted taxes. Front desk/kiosk: on check-in and checkout I can't say the clerks were the most welcoming or personable I've ever met, they just do their job. Room: mostly clean, usual Marriott. But it didn't pass the "white glove test" as the top of the shower curtain bar was black dusty. As was the top edge of the vanity mirror. A/C was frigid. Mini frig worked. No noise. No view, other rooms. Beds: comfortable, pillows not so, hope they change the comforter after each stay. Nightstand electrical outlets: two 3-prong outlets, one worked only if you jiggled the plug. I told the clerk when we checked out. Elevators: 2, not much wait. Hand sanitizer: the only one that worked was on the lobby level, the other floors had units installed on the wall but no push piece and nothing came out - just for show! Starbucks in the lobby but I didn't patronize it. This was my second time staying here. It's in a good location for me, I'd probably stay here again or at an Airbnb.

    The staff here is very kind. I left an item and Kelsey and Sarah were very helpful in getting me my item. Also, the hotel is very clean, quiet, and in a great location. You are just steps away from the action! My husband and I will be back soon!

    Great location, walking distance to bars/restaurants/casinos, ballpark is a stone throw away, among other things. Kaiser was a great pleasure to see upon arrival with his professionalism and smile. Too bad he was on there for a short while, but I'm sure his home location is proud to have him as an employee. I don't recall receiving a welcome amenity upon arrival as a Bonvoy member, but no worries. The room was big, clean, spacious, and hotel staff followed my requests with extra pillows and towels. Since I was there for work my Bistro visits were delightful every time I wanted food or drinks. They also serve happy hour and since the services were limited because of the pandemic, I absolutely had no complaints on the items I ordered. For breakfast the breakfast burrito was filling; eggs, bacon, home fries, and wheat toast is always great way to start the day. In the evening the caesar salad with tomatoes added were good! Major shout out to Petra and Mericio for all of their help. They truly were a highlight to my day whenever I walked through the lobby in passing or when I was going for a happy hour drink, just to sit and chat (when they were not busy), or for a quick bite to eat. For avid coffee drinkers .... hurry up and get the coffee machines working! The pool could look more inviting. The marketplace could offer better options. Can't say that I will be in Reno again but if so this will be a comfortable place for me to stay!

    Staff Friendliness 2 Room 4- something near the bed smelled like sweat... I am a Marriott Gold Member so I try to be loyal, but sometimes it is hard. Great water pressure. My room looked into the courtyard area. Very quiet, but kinda weird.

    Check in was smooth and every employee was very friendly, especially the young guy who works at night. The room was clean and the beds were pretty comfortable. We brought our own pillows and I am glad we did because the hotel pillows were very thick. There are only two EV chargers in the parking garage on the 3rd floor, one J1772 and one Tesla destination charger which is 48A. We were fortunate to find the Tesla charger unoccupied the night we arrived as our car was at 23%, however the other two nights the charger was taken. We were able to charge during the day for a few hours so we made it back home without needing to supercharge. My advice for Tesla owners would be to bring your J1772 adapter in case you need to use the non-Tesla charger. We tried to order food from the restaurant using the QR code in the room but it refused to take our order because it was 15 minutes until closing. It is inconvenient to have the parking garage separate from the hotel. I read that during baseball games (this hotel is right across the street from the stadium) that the parking garage is nuts. Really my only complaint is the poor insulation that caused us to be woken up very early by loud footsteps from the room above us. Oh, and the price at $250/night with a promo code we got from Jam On It (basketball tournament we attended) was kind of high. With parking and taxes it was nearly $900 for 3 nights. I'd be okay paying that for a 4 star hotel but it's really pushing it for a 3.

    Did they remove the pool/hot tub?

    Is this hotel good for kids & is it close to any areas that they can tube and play in the snow? My kids are 6,8 &15.

    I don't believe so. Your best bet is to call the hotel directly and ask them. They will be able to tell you. They have a pool... Good luck!

The price was super affordable, to the point I was skeptical that things would work out. Fortunately, everything was as I hoped for. We arrived at about 10:00 a.m., too early to check in. ** Note, parking is free, which is a very nice touch for downtown casino hotels ** We spent some time at the casino, and then grabbed lunch at one of the restaurants. There are three attached hotels in a row, Circus Circus, Silver Legacy and El Dorado, and the restaurants serve all three hotel visitors. After lunch, we took a walk around downtown Reno - it's got a lot of attractions that I would not have otherwise seen (riverwalk, baseball stadium, the Reno Arch, etc. By then it was just after 1:00 p.m., and I stopped by the front desk to see if any rooms might be available. For a small up charge of $20, I was able to check into a room early. The room was in the Sky Tower, a building that was a little difficult to find, but ultimately we figured out how to get from the room to the casino without having to go outdoors. The bed was very comfortable, the room was a good size, and the bathroom had all the amenities necessary. Overall, this is not one of the fanciest hotels I've ever visited, but it is a nice place to have access to the casino and the local Reno area, it was less than a 10 minute drive back to the airport, the room / bed / pillows for all comfortable, and the price for the room and parking was surely an amazing value.

Upon arrival, our room in the north tower wasn't available. The clerk added a note stating that we could switch towers at no charge. I asked if the north tower was better than the sky tower and she replied: "Oh yeah, much better". We considered staying in the sky tower because it was fine but the coffee maker barely worked. While heading out for the next day's activities, we crossed paths with a bellhop and asked him where the carts were stored, since we couldn't find one the night before and had to haul our heavy luggage from the garage, through the casino and up to our room. The carts were not available for use. He gave us a number to call and said he would personally bring one to us. Awesome. That afternoon, we called him and there was no answer. We called the listed bellhop office and they said they'd be right up. We waited 1 and 1/2 hours, but no one came, so we lugged our stuff to the other tower. Guess what: the room was identical to the previous one. The coffee maker barely worked in the new room, plus the AC unit was very noisy and the shower drain clogged after a minute of water. I think Circus Circus has been leaning on the Midway arcade to attract visitors but have let the rooms run down without renovation and it will cost them a lot of money in the long run. They'd better listen to the clientele before they go out of business.

My cousins picked this location because they are members of a group who used this chain of hotels and casinos often. I personally am not attracted to gambling , so I don't frequent this type of hotel. As I said the rooms were nice, but this hotel caters to the gambling crowd. My cousins got their rooms on comp, because they gamble here so often and that is great, but if you are not a heavy gambler and you are not getting a free room I cannot recommend the Atlantis.

But, I really dislike that they don't have room service and any food you order is done with Caesar Eats on your phone. You can't call and talk to anyone. There is no room service! it's really outlandish not to provide that anymore. It is part of a fancy hotel. So I am not and neither is my Mom and Father, especially, a fan of looking at a menu on a phone, and not speaking to a real person. Some people absolutely cannot do that. Do they want to exclude elderly people from ordering food? So I went to the Steakhouse:Ruth Christies, paid $210.00 and had to use plastic utensils and eat out of plastic containers. I asked if I could have real utensils and plates because I was staying there and the answer was no. It was quite disappointing. I think they should not do food to go because it really feels like a rip off and it was not a great way to eat a steak. Try cutting a steak with a plastic knife. Very poor service and presentation. That really needs to be fixed. Very classless.
