Very nice staff!! I did ask for beach access and housekeeping but didn't get it. Had to walk around with socks or shoes on the floor and when we needed more towels they were hard to find. Didn’t love not having a front desk. Overall safe and convenient great walk to casinos great location

Staff not on site full time. More of a self-serve situation. That being said, if you are a low maintenance lodger, this place is quite lovely if a bit older.

The hotel is great for the value! It's very close to the casinos and all the touristy shopping stuff. It's also walkable to the beach. The nearby "Lakeside" beach is private and the hotel provides vouchers that let's their guests access that private beach for a cheaper cost. They sometimes sell out to the general public so this voucher guarantees your entry. The beach is about 3 blocks away. Took me and my gf about 10 min to get there. Very easy flat walk along the road of the other hotels so it's very safe and walkable. We walked there with a wagon and backpacks full of beach stuff with no issues. No need to drive there unless you're extremely lazy. We forgot some chips in our room and I was able to walk back to get them no problem. The hotel is older so property could use some upgrades and cleaning but it's honestly not bad. I usually stay in "nice" hotels and thought this was fine and comfortable enough. I would stay here again. I liked the self check in. No waiting to be helped by front desk. There was no daily room service but I didn't mind. The room was MUCH bigger than I expected so that was nice. We went on 4th of July so there was tons of college kids partying around the whole area. It was loud at times but nothing that bad in my opinion. Everything you quiet by 10 or so. Parking was free and there was always a spot available when we returned after being out. Wifi was good. Water was good. Mini fridge and microwave were nice to have..mini fridge got nice and cold!

PRO: The great thing about this hotel was that it was very close to the Caesar outdoor arena, about a 5 minute walk. Even walking to the hotel at 10pm felt safe. CONS: The hotel is dated, but the room we had was spacious. Even though the vanity area was very small for 4 women sharing it we managed. It would've been nice to have extra towels, hand towels and wash cloths. We also noticed the floor felt gritty so we kept our shoes on. The parking lot had a tight entrance so we parked in the spaces in front of the hotel.

The staff was very accommodating and helpful which I liked, however the floors were super dirty and I had to wear slippers to keep my feet clean since there was dirt and dust! I also did not have any towels and the shower was still dirty and wet when I first arrived to my room, luckily the manager was able to quickly bring towels to the room and replace a lamp that did not light as well. The room itself was fine, all the staff was great and helpful.

Not horrible but could be a little better

It gets the job done for the price. It seems like there has been a recent attempt at renovation, but there are a few simple things they could do to improve it. Number one is to replace those awful cold-white LED light bulbs with the warmer color-temperature versions. Seems minor, but it felt like I was in a cafeteria. In my room, the heater ran constantly and could not be turned off (211) so the AC had to be continuously run to make the temp comfortable. And the floors were sticky. All these things seem easy to fix, but then again, it was ok for the price. Maybe.
