Parents stayed here for two weeks with Thomas Cook, clean and basic, pool area nice with padded cushions, shade if you want it. Small bar and restaurant, bar service excellent by Jason. Good value snacks after 11pm. Small slot machine area. Payouts in cash not tickets. Shuttle bus service once per hour, but not guarenteed to be on time.
The two male drivers were excellent more or less on time, the female driver was unreliable with an attitude problem, always leaving the Best Western late, and considering there is only one shuttle an hour this is unacceptable and inconvienient to all guests. Many Thomas Cook guests complained about the female driver being late including my parents. She thought it was her own bus and not interested in providing a scheduled shuttle service, thus Thomas Cook guests did not tip her, but tipped the guys who provided a good service. Drops off at the side of Ballys Casino on Flamingo. MacDonalds ideal for breakfast one block away. Visited the Desert Rose and the Gold Coast while we were there for future reference, would stay there instead of the Mardi Gras.

I have stayed at this hotel annually due to its 10-minute walk proximity to the Convention Center. See my past reviews every April. Once again, I had a great stay. The Good Stuff: If you get a 1-bed room, you will have a living room with couch (2-bed rooms put 2nd bed there). Room has frig, and large in-room safe. I usually can get an early check-in. Parking is free. Nice outdoor pool. And I always am given a $20 OFF Next Stay coupon when I leave, which they allow me to use even though it is usually expired a year later at my next visit. There are also numerous restaurants just a few blocks to the south. The Bad Stuff: There is no free Continental Breakfast - the breakfast buffet costs $8.95, but is full breakfast hot table. (I usually just buy a bag of donuts a Speedee Mart a block south and use the in-room coffee maker.) No free Internet PC in the lobby, but there is free wireless Internet in the rooms, and a Kinkos a few blocks south that has PC's. Within the past few months they have stopped their shuttle to and from the airport (Booo!), but they still run an hourly shuttle to the Strip. (Airport is only $15 cab ride.) I booked the room 4 months early on the BW.com chain site, but you should also check the hotel's own MGI.com site. The rate varied night to night, but the average was $65. With tax it was $75, then minus my $20 OFF coupon it was $70/night with all taxes and fees. If you are attending a convention and can't get a room here, check the hotels on Convention Center Drive. I would recommend this hotel to anyone attending a convention, but it is not near the Strip.

Having stayed in vegas on the strip before, we were nervous to be away from the nightlife. However, we were more than pleased with this hotel and it's friendly cosy atmoshpere and returning to it at night was a relief after the hustle and bustle of the strip. some nights we preferred to stay in the hotel which offers lovely food at all hours and excellent bar service from mark, jerry, cheryl, jason and chris. Mel the shuttle bus driver was very accommodating and gave us useful tips about vegas. we felt part of the family! the room was pleasant enough and always cleaned if you got up early enough and we just loved the pool. overall a very good honeymoon and we can't wait to go back to mardi gras again next year-just hope the same staff are there!!
