At the last minute I had to attend training for work in Las Vegas and this hotel was one of the few that was available at a price I could pay. I'm not one for much of the stuff on the Strip and so I really appreciated the quiet suburban location that was a short drive from the airport. The staff were helpful and the hotel was very clean. I was thankful for the Trader Joe's grocery across the street and an upscale pizza place in the shopping center around the back of the hotel as good alternatives for the usual travel fare.

A nice surprise! I have stayed at all the big hotels in Vegas at one time or another and this one is a gem. Smallish but with all the services a businessperson needs. It is on the opposite side of the strip which, if you aren't into gaming, is a plus. Less noise, less crowded, better atmosphere, etc. The bed was comfortable, the bathrooms was clean and the staff was polite. The only downside is the noise from the airport. The hotel is at the end of the runway...or at least it feels that way. Plane traffic starts up at about 5:30am am and ends around 10pm so at least the whole evening isn't noisy. Overall a great experience. It is one of the more upscale Courtyards I have stayed in and would return if back in Las Vegas.

Stayed one night on a Saturday night on our way south on I-15.

The Good:
- Beautiful rooms. Great furnishings and finish, both in great condition. We had a 2-queen room on the south-eastern end of the building, 3rd floor, overlooking the pool/courtyard, with a balcony, facing away from the adjacent interstate. Small refrigerator and in-room coffee maker.
- The pool area was very nice. Good-sized pool with rock water feature and a good-sized hot-tub. Poolside towel service.
- Nice lobby area. Plenty of seating area, plasma TV, modest bar, and three computers hooked up to high-speed internet and shared laser printer.
- Good location for accessing the Palms, the Orelans and Rio by car. You can take surface streets north to these casinos without having to cross or travel upon the strip.

The Bad:
- They had the worst free coffee in the lobby of any hotel I have ever stayed at. I am no coffee snob; I would never spend more than $1 for a cup of joe. But this stuff was, at all times, lousy.
- The screen door on the balcony fell out of its track as soon as I touched it.
- The hotel sits west of the airport, directly across I-15. On the evening we were there, the flight departure path was directly over the hotel. Frequent noise, that only seemed to slow between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m.
- There isn't much in the way of food service in the area. The hotel has a cafe, but there isn't much else around in the way of non-casino, family restaurants. The staffer didn't have much to recommend to us in the way of restaurants.

We booked our reservation the first week of September with our credit card and confirmation number, for 5 nocs the end of Oct. I had reserved a king bed, with balcony but when we arrived we were put in a regular room and paid the same price as the king balcony. We were told they would move us in the morning--however when we went to the desk at 10am we were told there were no kings available, infact all their balcony rooms were double queen. I had called this hotel directly and made reservations as we planned on a 5 noc stay. I was so disappointed that not only did we pay 1111.00 for the 5 nocs but the staff were very rude, no one would accept accountability for booking us a king room with balcony, then telling us they would move us to a king with balcony the next day--then to find out they had no king rooms available. To make matters even worse the queen mattress was lumpy and the airport noise and freeway noise was horrible. This was a very special birthday vacation for my husband and I felt so bad that a first class hotel would not even work with us on correcting the problem. There are so many choices for hotels in las Vegas--our next trip will NOT include this Courtyard.
The walls are very thin--we had to listen to alot going on next door til the wee hours!!
