I was duped into staying at Alexis Park when I booked my travel through Summer Bay resorts. I stayed for $15.00, and basically got my monies worth. The room was sub par, and we had to walk 7 minutes to get there with our bags. The heat and A/C didn't work when we got to the room and by the time we left two days later (to go to the Bellagio) it still wasn't working.

This might work for a family who is trying to save some money, but that is about it. It is not on the strip, but it is close. If you don't have a car, prepare to cab it. The Hard Rock is right next door if you are looking for something to do at night, because Alex Park is pretty much like a retirement home.

We checked in on Boxing Day 2008 with reservations for 6 nights. We only stayed the first night and moved on. The location is far from the Strip with no shuttle service back and forth like other resorts of the same price range. The hotel is in badly need of repair and maintenance: of 3 lights in our suite, only 1 worked when we arrived (1 had no bulb and 1 had a broken switch). We wondered when the room had last been occupied. Over the first hour we had 3 different people working on various aspects of the room from heat to lights to the TV...just the basics to make it comfortable for the first night. When we phoned the front desk we could not get a reply.The most helpful person was a young security person who tried to help with anything he could.
We moved to another hotel for the same price for the remaining 5 nights. It was a quick walk to the Strip; it had a shuttle service every 15 minutes; it was much closer to the action; and it had much more to offer than the Alexis.

When you weigh the pros and cons of this resort/hotel it is skewed more in favor of cons than pros.

Here are some pros,

1.Rooms are sufficient for a family of 4 to stay with a kitchen and retractable sofa cum bed
2. Rooms are clean and spacious

Here are the cons,

1. A mile from the strip and pricey for that location. You will get a better place near the strip for the same price
2. The place is really old & beaten down and does boost your spirits
3. There is no attached Casino. That means you will have to travel to the strip and they don't even have a shuttle to drop you there. So what is the USP of staying in this resort after coming to Vegas
4. There is a kitchen but no utensils !
5. The AAA falsely advertises that this place provides free complimentary breakfast
6. Lastly since it is close to the Airport you can hear the noise of the flights passing by all night !

I stayed here recently for a conference, and while I can't complain about the conference rate ($80!), the hotel did leave something to be desired.

Our room was clean enough (aside from crumbs on the couch cushions), but shabby, which is the same way I would describe the rest of the hotel. Not offensively dirty or ugly, but not great. My biggest complaint is that there was no free wireless, which I found pretty surprising for a conference hotel. The conference facilities were fine, but strange to navigate, as a previous reviewer mentioned; there was no central location from which to access the conference area...it was kind of maze-like.

I will say, though, that aside from an issue at check in, the staff was very kind and professional.

So, in short, stay here if you must (conferences, etc.), but if you're in Vegas for vacation/fun, I would definitely avoid the Alexis Park.
