Bill's is in a great location. It may lose out on some facilities because it is a small hotel, but makes up for it in spades because there was no queue for check in (on Friday afternoon), or for check out. Some of the other queues we saw in other venues had 20+ people waiting.
But back to location. It is right on the cross roads with Bally/Bellagio and Caesars, but wins out as it is only a minute from your room to the strip. Hotels like the Bellagio have the lobby way back from the strip, with the rooms even further away.
From Bill's you can walk over half of the strip easily, which was a real bonus.
Steak and Eggs for Breakfast, served from Midnight, was a bargain at $7, although there was always a 10+ minute wait to get a table, seemed like most of the time. Just put your name down and grab a beer..... They announce tables on the casino wide PA. We had a view of the car park behind Bill's but you don't go to Vegas to stay in your room. Otherwise it was the best value hotel we stayed in during our 10 day break in West Coast USA.
Only regret was we never made the free Craps lessons at 10.00 in the morning!

I recently spent 1 night on the strip in Bills. I had a very good experience from Valet to check in. The room was large, clean. the furniture was Vintage style. Many have said it was "dated" but it is just not modern furniture.

The WC was in the same room as the tub, the sink and clothes rack were seperated by a door to the bathroom. There was also a pocket door separating the entire bathroom from the bedroom.

The room consisted of a large comfortable bed, two night tables spaced about a foot away from the bed on each side, 3 drawer dresser with a flat screen tv-possibly a 36 in. There was a desk with a straight back chair, dining talbe with 2 straight back chairs, Wi-fi was available. There was also one more chair in the corner. One think that I felt was lacking in the room was a stuffed comfortable chair. I enjoy sitting and relaxing in the room and not on the bed or a straightback chair.

I had a partial view of the strip but was opposite Ballys The next morning I went to the Victorian Room for a early morning "breakfast special". Food was good, but I felt $16.00 was high for eggs, bacon, toast, coffee and juice.

The casino was laid out nice, and the Big Elvis show was entertaining.

I would consider another stay at Bills in the future, and I will recommend it for someone wanting to stay center strip in a clean, small hotel.

Just got back from Bill's and I have to admit I was a bit fearful before I got there. The price and opinions of some people on the forum - who thought the place was a dump - had me worried that the hotel might have a negative impact on my holiday... Well, they must have ridiculously high standards.

Besides from being clean, and I have big cleanliness issues. The room is huge. The shower was amazingly hot and powerful. The bed was probably the comfiest I've ever slept in. I got a partial view of the Bellagio fountains without even asking. The staff were nice and friendly. There were a fair few channels on the 42" TV which I didn't watch much, but it was nice to have there.

Check in was fast, I was the only one at the front desk and check out was almost as fast with 3 people behind the desk and about 7 customers including me checking out.

Although the room was pristine when I checked in, the maid must have been in and out of my room in under a minute every other day I was there... 5 seconds of that time was spent on picking the tip up. At the end of my stay there was a layer of dust on the bedside table that was so thick I could've written a short story in it.

The location is the best on the strip. Takes 15-20 seconds from walking in and getting to your room. Didn't play in the casino or eat there but as far as the room goes it's great, especially for the price.

My husband and I booked a non-smoking room with a king bed online because there was a good price online. We arrive at the hotel and the front desk tells us that all non-smoking rooms with a king bed are on one side of the hotel, which happens to be a strip view, which will cost $10 more per night. I say that we booked this room online and paid already, and she said that the websites don't take strip view into account. So we were charged an extra $50 because we were staying for 5 nights. If we thought we could get a room at another hotel for a reasonable price and not have to pay cancellation fees at Bill's, we would have left right then. We felt completely taken advantage of.

Also, housekeeping left our door open one day! We came back to our room early in the evening and our door was open! Fortunately nothing was stolen, but when we went to go complain to the front desk, there was no one there to staff it.

The room itself was okay, but there is no comforter/bedspread on the bed, so if you get cold easily, bring a blanket. Also, one of the lightbulbs was out the entire 5 days we were there, internet costs $12 per day, and there are about 5 channels to choose from on your tv.

This hotel is in a great location in the dead center of the strip, across from Caesar's Palace, and next to Monorail stops. In my opinion, the location is not enough to save this hotel. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.
