As a travel agent, got a great rate and didn't want to say on "the strip", so this Hyatt was the answer. Unfortunately, it took us 1/2 hour to find the place after coming into LV north on I-15.
It is literally right across from UNLV..and with all the one-way streets, and Paradise Rd stopping, then starting up again = confusing; it is also just minutes from the LV airport, and hotel has a shuttle.
Room had separate "living room", but vanity area was open wide into bedroom area.
Refrigerator and USA Today delivered on weekdays. No restaurant, BUT best feature for me....the POOL. Gorgeous landscaping, not too deep.
Very comfy beds and pillows. Also, no fee for parking!

1. The hotel is right under the flight plan of planes taking off from Las Vegas Airport and is very loud.

2. The hotel staff at check-in gave me my room card and did not explain the amenities of the hotel. (I've stayed at Hyatt Place before, so it wasn't a big deal for me. But it is unprofessional.)

3. Checkout took 25 minutes in line. And I was the 1st person in line. Totally unacceptable for there to be one person at checkout desk at 9AM. Granted, the woman being helped when I got the to desk had problems, but it could have been handled a lot better. (like to call a co-worker to help, asking the woman to wait while simple check-outs can occur...)

4. The room had an iron, but no ironing board.

Needless to say, I will not return.

Bad, unsafe area of Las Vegas. My car was broken into in the hotel parking, the GPS was stolen. Hotel was extremely experienced and cleaned the broken window glass quickly to hide the shame from the guests.

Security cameras are installed everywhere inside the hotel but none outside. If you worry about safety - stay away.

I had to waste a day of my trip and paying $200 to fix the window. The manager was apathetic - "there is nothing we can do.." "we are not responsible..."


Stay away, safety comes first!

I use to stay at the Hard Rock Hotel all the time. But sometimes when I couldn't get a room I would stay across the street at the Amerisuites. Mediocre at best and overpriced. BUT NOW! I booked through the Hyatt web site and they surprised me by booking me at the SAME PROPERTY UNDER A NEW NAME.

It was WAY WAY WAY BETTER! Everything. Rooms, lobby. Wood paneled and huge flat screen TV. Great Hyatt beds. I read some other reviews about airplane noise. Totally wasn't an issue. Yes they are near McCarron but it's muffled. And I was on the 5th floor.

I know my comments sound so good I must be a shill. I'm not. But I am very picky and was expecting another mediocre experience in Vegas hotel staying. I thought this place was perfect. Great service. There was a slow drain in my sink and the TV didn't get HD so they came up immediately and fixed it. There's free internet. Coffee in the room which I like. Huge fluffy pillows which I like. Kind of a suite layout. Living area and bedroom area.

Wish I could rag on something here. But can't. I'd look here first before going to any of those crappy casino/spa joints.
