Ok for the price. The room we booked was not available. Breakfast was very basic - bread, eggs, sausage and oatmeal. No fruit, yogurt or anything else.

Used an outside app to make my reservation and I had trouble checking in in terms of the hotel not letting my golf companions check in; I had to pay for everyone; they could not pay for their own rooms when we got there. Very inconvenient!

This place is very modern and clean, and I would certainly recommend staying here. The person checking us in was interesting though. They kept mentioning in disgust that we booked "through a third party" informing us of a surprise $75 pet fee and asking how Vegas is this time of year which apparently is where Expedia's main office is and what our address showed up as in the hotel's system. It was just unnecessary commentary that we could have done without after a long drive. It was close to 11PM by the time we arrived, so throwing another $75 fee on top of the already high priced hotel room felt like we had no other option but to accept. All in all, the hotel was nice and provided exactly what we needed, a safe and clean place to crash before the next leg of our trip... with our dog.
