10/10 Exceptional

Honestly the best hotel. Staff was really nice, room was really clean, parking was easy. The location was perfect with a 5 minute walk to harrah’s snd other casinos. We stay in a lot of hotels and this was probably one of my favorites. They are pet friendly, we didn’t bring ours this time but to know they have dog blankets and towels in your room to dry off your dog was a big win in my book. I typically don’t stay in the same hotel twice, this one I definitely will be back.

Very nicely updated rooms, very clean. Beds very comfortable. 1/3 of the rooms are on the bottom floor and noise transfers very easily. Make sure you get a top floor room or single story room.

This is the second time that I’ve stayed here. It is dog friendly and very easy to walk to everything downtown. The rooms are very nice and remodeled. And they have free warm cookies! I will definitely keep going there in the future.

Room was good. Very well located. Water pressure was bordering on being a slight trickle of water that could barely be used to clean off. Big detractor to what is otherwise a good lodge in a great location

Super cute updated boutique motel. Easy parking, smooth check in and checkout, very clean, quiet, and it had everything we needed for a great stay. We were in town for a concert at Caesar’s (formerly Harvey’s) amphitheater. It is an easy walk there and to all of the shops at restaurants in Heavenly Village. I would happily stay here again.
