The minute you walk out of the room, you can smell cigarette smoke. Terrible. Air conditioner was rattling, warm and very loud on our first stay there. We asked front desk person to have maintenance guy take a look at it. Seems still loud but colder.

Clean hotel great location

This hotel is very clean and has everthing you need for a short break. Location is great right next to Fremont street. $4 a bottle of bud compared to $11 a bud at Treasure Island on the rip off strip. Only down side is smoke in the casino.

This was a great hotel. We enjoyed it the best ever and we have stayed in Vegas 15 times. This was our first time at California. I was laying on the bed and some man just uses a key and walks right in. Doesnt identify himself says oh excuse me and walks out. Shook me up to say the least. Upon going down to find out what had just happeded. End result~ they apologized and returned our resort fee. I guess I will always flip that dead bolt now. Beautiful place
