My friends and I have been traveling to Las Vegas over the course of the last month for work. We are not really into the high dollar casinos and are were just looking for a decent place to play cards. We stumbled upon the Gold Spike by accident…it was the $3 Sexy Blackjack sign that drew us in. What is... more

We stayed there for a couple of nights over the New Years holiday (2009) and enjoyed our stay. We new ahead of time that the place was under renovation and we are very familiar with Downtown. My only complaint then was that our room showed wear and tear from years of use. I wasn't moldy, filthy, bad smelling or infested.... more

A friend has a blogsite and also writes for CasinoGuide in Las Vegas. He was impressed with Gold Spike and the upgrades and suggested we all go there for a night of fun on Friday, June 26th. Not only did he okay our large group of 15-20 people but verified it THREE times with management. We showed up in two... more

The Gold Spike was a great deal . . . once I found a room that didn't have odor and had a working air conditioner. The people at the front desk were cooperative and it got done. STRATEGY - before you unpack your luggage 1.) check for odor. 2.) be sure cooling element works on a/c unit 3.) check the... more
