The hotel is a mixed bag. The location is excellent for nightlife and social gatherings, and the rooms, while basic, are clean and have all the essentials for self-catering. However, things can get rowdy, especially with stag and hen parties, which may not be ideal for families. Overall, it’s a decent place for groups looking to enjoy a party atmosphere.

The hotel is centrally located right on the strip, which makes it super convenient for nightlife and local attractions. However, the rooms need a serious update as they felt dated and uncomfortable. While the breakfast was basic, the affordable pricing made the overall experience bearable for a party atmosphere, but it might be overwhelming for families or those seeking a quieter stay.

The hotel is spot on for lively nights out, right on the strip with easy access to bars and restaurants. While the pool area is great for relaxation, the rooms were quite basic and could use some improvements. The service was helpful when needed, but check-in was a bit chaotic. Overall, a decent stay if you’re there to party, but maybe not the best for a quiet getaway.

The hotel is located right on the strip, making it perfect for those looking to party, but I wouldn't recommend it for families or couples. The rooms are quite spacious but quite basic, and while the pool area looks nice, it can get very crowded and rowdy. Overall, it's good for a young crowd on a budget, but it definitely has its downsides in terms of comfort and amenities.

I had a pretty disappointing experience at this resort. The location is lively and close to the nightlife, but the rooms were uncomfortable and filthy. The service was lacking, with staff who seemed unfriendly and unhelpful. While the pool area seemed nice, the overall maintenance of the place is seriously in need of attention.

Rooms
5.0
The rooms were absolutely filthy and poorly lit, making it unsafe to navigate at night. I had to sleep on two cushions on a tiled 'sofa.'
Service

The service was quite disheartening; staff would laugh at issues rather than help, and it felt like they simply didn't care.

The location is right on the strip, great for nightlife, but it can be overwhelming for families due to the environment.
Dining

Dining options were limited, with a very basic breakfast setup—just a bread roll, croissant, and some cheese. I didn’t find it satisfying.
Facilities

The pool area looked nice but lacked loungers that were comfortable to use. I ended up having to buy a lilo to sunbathe.
