    Setting a new low in Vegas stays. Hate to rate businesses low but we were horrified by the place. Should have known better based on location. Everything was so dirty from the bathroom sink/toilet, to the phone and carpets. Even found a cockroach crawling around the walls next to my food. Our reservation was 3 days total only because we had pets and everywhere else was pretty booked up. We couldn't stay there a third day and ran away as soon as we could. We attempted to call prior to booking to ask about pet fees, no one ever answered the phone.

    Outside my room, a filthy carpet.

    What a horrible experience. I slept in my clothes. The floor was dirty. There was no coffee maker or microwave. If you look at other reviews, they've been removed because they had mold growing in the coffee makers and God knows how awful the microwaves were. I felt unsafe in my room. I checked in after 11 PM after getting up at 2 AM and driving from Los Angeles. I was way too exhausted to go to the front desk or try to straighten this out. From the reviews every room is filthy. It's in a really bad part of town. I would recommend staying anywhere else. I booked through Priceline over the phone. It was posted as a 3 1/2 star hotel. I've trusted Priceline on the past. Never again. Stay anywhere else.

    Exterior. Sketchy area of town, buildings all around with graffiti. Worst area of all of Vegas

    I originally booked a different hotel on 8/4 as our flights had changed and we needed to add an extra night to our stay. Didn't look too bad and reviews were decent. Booked through snap travel. Literally the only reason I used snap travel was for the price/quality of the room of the original booked hotel. I didn't need anything super fancy as we just needed a clean room with a shower and bathtub (so I could soak my feet) Literally probably one of the WORST "hotels" (if you can even call it that). Sketchiest area of town. We checked in late because we were just going to go back to the room and relax/soak before our flight in the morning. First impression- boarded up graffiti building directly across the street, super sketchy area. Dried puke in the parking lot that was still there when we left (I wish I took more pictures than the ones I took) room reeked like dog pee. MOLD on the ceiling from a leak that does not look remediated. Huge water intrusion spots Tv had no remote, tv stand was filthy and I don't think ever wiped down. Broken glass on tv stand. Sheets (and towels) had someone else's makeup on them. Bathroom wall has large spot that someone's dog chewed. Hole punched in bathroom door and poorly patched. Walls in bathroom had stuff running down them. Hard to see in pics. All light switches totally filthy. Bathtub stopper was broken so couldn't even use the tub. Possible poop on bathroom wall. Not sure what it was. Did not even feel comfortable showering here. I am filing a BBB complaint as well. RUNNNNN

    The room that my family checked in was horrible and I am not being dramatic. The reason why I am saying that this hotel is really bad is because they have bed bugs,don't change the bed sheets,hair everywhere,smelled like smoke and every thing was dirty. Everything was outdated and needed to be replaced. The front desk was understandable and moved us to a different room that looked better than the other one because it look more clean but don't let that fool you because when we checked the closet the replacement sheets were still dirty and weren't even folded. Also I forgot to say that when we lifted the sheets to check for bed bugs the sheets looked like they had pee

    Ok so after canceling our hotel room wich was waaaayyy too ugly and crappy (travelodge yes im talking about you) we decided to check this hotel out. It is Jan 2019 and we paid 220$ for two nights and we left a 30$ deposit. Sooooooo we go into our bedroom, on the second floor in the lobby area, I believe it was room 207. As we walked in I was in awe because there was a small hallway with a nice closet , that included an iron and an iron board, a safe and some hangers. In the bathroom well it was very clean Except the toilet did NOT flush. We had to hold the thing down for about 30 seconds straight in order for it to flush. The tub was expectacular!!!! Im talking extra white crispy clean, it was sorrounded by a white courtain The sink was also clean. The bedroom well the bed was soft and they had the basic plain old sheets. There was three pillows, two standard sized and one king size. The lamps did not work but the ceiling fan and light did. There was a new flat screen tv. The fridge was working so I placed my drinks in there hehe and they was cold. The microwave worked too The Rug looked old but not dirty. Pros: Free paking obviously, clean bath and cheap. They have a pool Cons: I did not feel safe because this hotel is located entering downtown las vegas and I could tell there were very much locals around smoking and acting crazy. I did not see a security around. But the entire place is being videotaped by surveillance cameras. ALSO my room had a balcony but I was surprised that it had access to other rooms. It was a long balcony and the balcony doors where nothing but crystal. I did locked my doors because SAFETY as I did not know the other people staying there. I really wished they had a wall between the balconies or some shit‍ NO BED BUGS I am the first thing bed bugs eat, I think Im sweet as fuck lmao! anyways they did not have any bed bugs on my room how lucky because I had bed bugs in other hotels that sucked the fuck out of me. Anyways I recommend this Shalimar hotel if you're on the run like me and it is under the cheap side. Also they havw a Cuban breaksfast reataurant

    Cold floor, mismatched furniture bed headboard comes apart from mattress side door lock is a crap shoot! Ac busted no cable

    Avoid any rooms on the 1st floor ESPECIALLY ROOM 117! total dump! No coffee maker no mini fridge....Busted AC. Mismatched everything, curtains falling down, TP holding broken. It's a dungeon filthy and floors are cold. Any and everything that has ever broken in this hotel is shoved into this tiny cramped room. Total dump! I did transfer to room 304. 110% improvement. View of pool much bigger and clean. The only plus is the Fremont Experience is a 3 min drive or really easy walk at night. Neighbor is so so. It's off the strip which is another plus. This place is kid friendly and pet friendly.

    Just squished a bug next to my pillow w blood in it.  Found the rest of the bed w blood dots...
    Andy L.

    Was about to go to sleep in this motel then suddenly I see a small tiny bug running up the pillow. I squashed it and had a smear of blood then I checked the rest of the bed only to see little spots of blood and a trace of blood. When I confronted the manager in the front desk showing my pillow with the bug blood smeared pillow he only said "What do you want me to do about this?". He then argued with me saying that the pillows not a bug stain and we don't have bed bugs here. And I told him I specifically squished one and he just said "What do you want me to do about it" kept repeating that. We left the motel immediately after...

    Horrible place. I booked online and the pictures they show online look pretty nice. As soon as we pulled up I could tell it was a bad idea. We checked in to a "non smoking" room. As soon as we go to the hallway the place reeked with weed. We opened up our room and the smell wasn't inside yet. We dropped off our stuff and left at first glance the room looked horrible. We came back at night to find a roach in the bathroom. The walls also have stains and need to be cleaned. I couldn't even sleep thinking the bed could have bed bugs. I couldn't bring myself to shower or shower my kids in this place. Never coming back

    My feet after no more than 5 minutes of walking around .

    IF I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE 0 STARS I WOULD . Let me just say this as soon as I walked into this hotel I actually thought it was beautiful, older but beautiful. I walked around for about 5 minutes before my feet were BLACK when I say black I mean BLACK ! Not a problem so I called and told them NICELY if someone was here to mop or if I could change my room to a clean one. They told me that I had been here since 3 pm and I have an animal with me. I had been on the strip all day I just came here to drop off my luggage . Plus I'm walking In the room BAREFOOT so how could I have made the room dirty. Make it make sense, sir. Anyways not a problem I let him know that and he said well there are no rooms available at the moment (it's Saturday night I totally understand) so I said okay no worries and just planned to walk in sandals. Then I notice my dog is eating pieces or something idk off the floor ! So I went down to the lobby to ask if I could sweep/ mop myself . As I'm waiting in line there's a young girl maybe 8 years old . She was asking something maybe to get a new key card and one of the guys literally just said no she said what? And he shook his head and pointed to the other attendant . We're waiting a while and she's playing with these little beads that they had on the counter. She dropped one and then that's when the attendant noticed she was playing with them he quickly started to get angry telling her I told u not to play with these u do this everyday so on and so forth . I quickly told him what is wrong with u, u don't talk to her like that! He continued to say u don't know her she does this everyday they used to be filled this high etc etc. I told him I don't care u don't yell at her ! MIND U THE LITTLE GIRL IS BY HERSELF. He continued to try to argue with me the fact that I don't understand . He explained she is gypsy and that she had been staying there for 2 years . I told him I DO NOT CARE U NEED TO STAY IN YOUR LANE SIR . I told him she is a child if I was a child I would do the same exact thing IN FACT I would buy the beads for her! Anyways I now explained to him that my room is filthy and I was wondering if I could clean it myself he sends up JUST A MOP . the mop was barley wet so I filled up my tub with bubble bath water so I could clean the floor some what ... the whole tub quickly turned black which explained why the floors are so dirty .

    I have heard so many good things about the Cosmo and finally got to stay here!…read more We were able to get a fountain view room and it's definitely worth the upgrade if you make the swing for it. Service was fairly friendly and the room was nice. The property has a lot of amenities for both fine dining and more affordable options with the infamous Block 16 for food area. I will say it's a good place to stay if you want to be in all the action of the strip and it also a chique lively atmosphere. But if want a more laid back experience you may want to stay more on the north/south end of the strip or something like Vdara.

    Unsafe balconies beware…read more Per security direct quote: "this happens at least once every three months". My experience at this hotel was extremely concerning because of a serious safety issue with the balcony door. I stepped onto the balcony, and when the door closed behind me, it locked, leaving me trapped outside. It was approximately 110°F. Fortunately, I had my phone with me and was able to call for help. Had I not had my phone, this could have become a dangerous situation very quickly. When I reported the issue to the manager, rather than showing concern, she was condescending and made me feel as though I had somehow caused the problem. I specifically told her that I did not believe another guest should be placed in that room until the balcony door was repaired because it was unsafe. I had paid extra for a room with a balcony, yet I could not safely use it for the remainder of my stay. Because I was traveling for work and had a very demanding schedule, changing rooms at the last minute was also extremely difficult. I just chose not to use the balcony anymorez What bothered me even more was being told that if I filed a formal safety report, they would not be able to refund the additional amount I had paid for the balcony. That placed me in an unacceptable ethical position: either report a legitimate safety hazard so another guest would not be placed at risk, or remain silent in order to receive a refund. Of course, I chose to report the safety issue. After considerable discussion, I was eventually refunded approximately $130 related to the balcony charge. However, the way the situation was handled--particularly the manager's dismissive and condescending attitude--was unacceptable. I would not stay at this hotel again. Even if my work required travel to the same area, I would choose another property.

No one answered or came to assist us. After we got out, we had to find a security guard ourselves to report what happened. The response was just as upsetting. A staff member made a comment about the hotel being built in the 1990s. Later, Wesley told us he had reviewed the footage and that we were in the elevator for "less than two minutes," as if the short amount of time meant there was no issue. Our concern was what the elevator did and the fact that we could not reach anyone for help. Wesley said maintenance had looked at it and found no problem, but we weren't told what they checked. We then saw other guests continuing to use the same elevator. I don't feel safe getting back on it, and I'm concerned for anyone else who does. For what we paid to stay at The Venetian, I expected the hotel to take a reported elevator problem and an unanswered call button seriously. Instead, we felt completely dismissed.

It is close to Conrad / tacos el Gordo but that's about it . Table minimums are crazy $50 for pai gao etc. We got up graded to a room of the sphere which was really nice . The bed is very comfortable and the bath tub is huge . The room also comes with a fridge !!!! I think it's the only property I've stayed at that comes with a fridge .

The counter space in the bathroom is tall and there isn't a separate vanity area . The shower door also kept leaking everywhere every time after we took a shower . I think I still like Venetian / palazzo the most but Fontainebleau is not a bad place to stay if your trip is not centered around partying.

The pillows are soft, the mattress feels like a cloud and the products are really nice and plush. It's no wonder so many people want to stay here. Service overall was good. Our front desk agent Gerard was a highlight. Really friendly and helpful in understanding our benefits we got with our room. Also gave us some recommendations for place to go and try as well. However, we had issues in service among other places in the property, notably the bell desk. We did have about a 2 hour delay before our room was ready so we dropped our stuff with the bell desk. The setup is weird, there is an inside person and people outside. It seems like everything goes through the outside people, we could only drop our stuff with them and pick our stuff up at checkout, we have no idea what the inside guy did except to direct us outside. Also, by the time our room was ready, we couldn't even pick up the stuff at the bell desk, only delivered to the room. It said it would take 15 minutes but we had to call and because it was "so busy" we had to wait almost an hour for it. The massive sprawling casino has a lot of games to play and a lot of different venues for everyone. Minimums are high for table games (as expected) but there is still something for everyone to play. Cocktail service was slow at times, but Sandra was friendly and quick as well as made some delicious cocktails. Overall, it really is a nice property with some great stuff. But it does feel like it doesn't know how to properly control crowds and leaving you like you were truly at a 5 star resort.

There are separate elevators going to the Reserve Rooms. However, it is still shared with some of the upper floors from Park MGM. I know that other hotels on the strip have separate elevators exclusively for separate parts of the hotel. I really enjoyed my Atelier room. It was a little bit larger than the standard room. The distinguishing factor about this room is really the bathtub in the room. However, the bathtub itself seems to be a liability for the hotel. I have to say that someone can easily slip and fall in the bathtub. Use extreme caution when using the bathtub. I loved the European french decor. The toilet was a little far away from the bed, but I suppose that is good if you are traveling with somone so when they went to the restroom, it would be less noticable (more privacy, less noise). Since they are hardwood floors, I can hear chairs being moved around from the rooms above me during my stay. I was a little bit irked. Other than that, my stay was quite enjoyable at The Reserve.

However, for those of us who come to Vegas often, staying at those hotels often means higher prices and headaches with navigating around the busy traffic. Having stayed at most of the larger hotels (The Luxor, The Bellagio, Encore at Wynn, Park MGM etc) I've had my fill of the dazzling lights and boisterous crowds. I do recommend you try these hotels at least a few times to truly soak in the bustle of Las Vegas night life. For me, I prefer to stay adjacent to, but not within, The Strip. This way, I can have some comfort in a quieter setting and can call an uber at any moment to meet friends along The Strip. This was the reason I chose Nirvana Hotel. Situated right next to The Luxor and The Mandalay Bay, it is both affordable and close to the attractions I come to Vegas for. The exterior is a bit off-putting at first. You aren't greeted with the pristine fountained welcome that you expect from Vegas--the wonderful precession of marble floors, the lush green plants, the ornate chandeliers. The main check-in station is inside the souvenir shop which resembles that of a run down gas station. Service is quick and the check-in process is painless. Their doors all use numbers so you don't have to worry about misplacing your card. Just don't get so drunk you forget! The room itself is very humble: queen bed, LG tv, two night stands, a small fridge, and a walk-in shower. Clean, organized, and arranged professionally. I will definitely stay here again. Connie was at the reception and welcomed me warmly. Parking is free. That's right. FREE. For your entire duration of stay.
