We were able to use a Travel coupon book to get this hotel for two beds, two people at $59 on a Tuesday and Thursday night in late April. Our arrival time was around 8 to 9 pm, and on Thursday it sounded like they were starting to run out of two-bedded rooms.
The hotel itself is excellent, clean, new construction, excellent bedding, VERY quiet, in-room refrigerator and microwave, and free continental breakfast including yogurt, hardboiled eggs and a waffle maker. There is a free computer and fresh fruit available 24 hrs in the lobby. The only real downside (for some) may be the location. It is east of the I-15 on Craig Road, next to the Walmart. The neighborhood might be described "sketchy". On our second night, there was an arrest going on adjacent to the hotel! We did take the precaution (both nights ) of removing almost all belongings from the car. Since we were on a driving trip to Utah, and not interested in the Vegas experience. E.g., we did not experience any noise from people coming and going late at night and making noise in the hallways. The hotel really worked perfectly for us, enough so that we also stayed here on the way back. All of the staff that we encountered were friendly if a little quirky, but we had no problems at all with the service. On the first night the receptiionist even asked if the room we had was okay. Oh, and we thought it a little odd that they didn't have HBO (although you could get poor reception of Showtime).

After gagging on the bad air quality in a fancy hotel on the south side of town, I decided to try this place. When I arrived, I was surprised to see several people with their belongings in a shopping cart lying down fast asleep on the sidewalk behind the hotel. I turned right back around and left.

Best for what price it was offered for.
We had bad experience with the check in though, The service person at the counter was rude. We were kept waiting for more than an hour and then given a room with a smoke smell as a non-smoking room.

My partner and I arrived in Las Vegas at around 6 pm on a Monday evening and drove from the airport to La Quinta Inn, Nellis, to check in for one night, booked directly by the hotel's website three weeks previously. We had received confirmation of the booking from them by email. We had chosen this hotel entirely because of the good reviews here on Trip Advisor.

We drew up to the hotel at about 7 pm and went to reception to check in.

A not very smiling man at Reception informed us that he had no rooms available and that our booking would not be honoured ... he said something like "well, it was only an internet booking ... ". We were tired and not at all happy.

He passed us a sheet of paper with a list of other hotels nearby, and their costs and told us that the only other one of comparable standard was the Holiday Inn Express, just across the street. He offered no further help at all and was not even apologetic. No doubt if we had not turned up, they would have charged our credit card for "no show" - yet he offered no compensation for having let us down and not honouring the booking ... he never even offered to telephone another hotel to see if a room would be available for us.

So, all in all a horrible hotel and we will never book a La Quinta Inn again.

However, this story does have a happy ending ... we went across the street to the Holiday Inn Express Nellis where the staff were just wonderful and welcoming and the entire hotel - which appeared to be brand new - was really excellent and looked a great deal more luxurious than the La Quinta Inn. By the end of the evening, we counted ourselves as lucky.
