My family and I just got back from our stay at Bill's and we were quite pleased with our stay. The hotel is right in the heart of the strip, but at a fraction of the cost. The amazing Flamingo's pool is a short walk away and Bill's guest's are welcome with your room key:) The 99 cent margaritas at the bar were good but the bar service could be better. The cocktail waitresses fly past you if you are playing slots but come by often if you're playing table games. The front desk service is awesome as well as the cleanliness of the rooms in the hotel. The rooms are in good shape with nice plasma TV's, but small bathrooms. The views on the Flamingo Blvd. side are nice and worth the extra $$.

My wife and I stayed at Bills in mid-June for roughly $50 per night. This hotel is much smaller and cheaper than most on the strip, and after walking the entire strip during our stay and seeing the inside of most of the other hotels, this is a very good thing! The hotel has a western theme, flat panel tvs in your room, and access to the pool next door at the flamingo hotel. There is also a restaurant on site, but we didn't make it to the hotel due to the wait. Hotel is right in the middle of the strip, with the flamingo next door, and Ceasars Palace and the Bellagio ( see the fountain show) directly across the street.
Our only complaint is that the slots didn't pay out more, haha!

This is a good hotel on center strip. Everything is within walking distance and you are right across from the Bellagio and Ceasars for under $50 a night. This is not a luxury hotel. There is no refrigerator, but the rooms are nice and right on the strip.

Our experience was fairly good. I reserved online and requested a strip view, refrigerator, and King bed. Upon checkin we were told there were only 10 refrigerators for the whole hotel (standard rooms) and most were used for medications. The lady was very nice and upgraded us to a strip view for free since there were no more frigs left. Good to me - we just used the sink and filled it with ice every night. We were on the second floor and could see the eifel tower and the Bellagio fountains. It was beautiful at night. The bed was comfy, but I got cold so a few more blankets would have been nice. The airconditioner defintiley works here. Flat screen television was nice. there was a balcony but the windows are locked shut. There is plenty of room for two people, and for under $50 a night, center strip, you just can't beat it.

The only bad thing I could say was just don't eat from the Victorian Cafe. It is horrible. The room service pizza is awesome though. There is no pool, but you can use the pool at the Flamingo which is right next door.

We stayed at Bill's for five nights in March 2009. We arrived around 11am and there was no problem checking in right away and no queues to check in either. We were offered our choice of a room with 2 queen beds or one king, we opted for one king and were given a HUGE room right at the back corner of the hotel on the top floor. I think it may have been part of a suite at some point as to get in you had to go through one door into a lobby area, off the lobby were two hotel rooms and a what looked like a parlour lounge area which was all locked up. Our room had a very retro feel, right down to a telephone in the huge bathroom!

The bed wasn't particularly well made when we entered the room, but I've noticed this seems to happen sometimes with king size beds in hotels for some reason? Our room had a partial view of the Bellagio fountains and the strip which was cool.

A very loud alarm went off at 4am one morning, some sort of fire alarm, warning us to "stay in our room until further notice" which was a little scary. Turns out water had got into the air con lines or something and triggered an alarm. Pretty minor inconvenience though.

The location of Bill's just cannot be beat, especially for the price. You can go from your room to right in the middle of the action on The Strip within two minutes! Also, as it is only a small hotel, there were no long lines to check in, which we noticed at some of the other hotels when we were exploring. You also don't have to drag your bags right through the casino to check in.

The staff were pretty good, except for one rude bellhop who yelled at us for pre-ordering a taxi and then not showing up, when we'd never ordered a taxi, we'd only checked out and then headed outside to ask for a taxi right then.

Overall Bill's exceeded my expectations and is a great place for a cheap getaway to Vegas!

Booked Bill's based on the reviews here - and they were pretty much spot on.

The location is perfect - in my opinion (as a first time visitor) this was the best section of the strip to stay at. A good thing about being in a smaller hotel was that you were no sooner walking out of your room door and you were onto the strip. Some of the bigger hotels seemed to take forever to walk from one end to the other, let alone up 10-20 floors in an elevator.

The room was better than expected, clean, very spacious and had a nice big TV. No fridge which is a shame, although I'm sure not many Vegas hotels do provide one. No complementary internet, but at these rock bottom room prices you can understand why. Wireless & wired internet was available at a extra cost. We had a great view of the strip from our window looking straight out at the Eiffel Tower). Air-con was good, and kept the room cool despite the 40+ degrees outside.

Most casinos in Vegas stank of cigerette smoke, but Bill's smelled the worst of the ones we visited. The room was fine, but the casino needed to do something about the ventilation (or give the carpets a good clean to get rid of the entrenched smell).

No pool or gym but access to the Flamingos Pool was free (thankfully, due to the heat), and you received 1 free pass (Per person) to use the Flamingo's fitness centre.

Would definitely stay there again for the price - almost unbeatable value overall.
