Well, I was a little nervous at first, I usually stay at the Monte Scorlo, but I am getting pretty street smart about Vegas and can usually find the loose slots so I thought I would try something new at the Rodeway Inn. Let me tell you, this felt like I was in Jerryville. I had no problems putting one up on the board here.

We stayed here overnight on our way to Southern California. We found the location to be very convenient, with Carrow's restaurant next door and the San Remo, Tropicana, Excalibur, and MGM Grand close by. The room was quite small but we didn't spend much time there! Bring your own shampoo. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful, in spite of being extremely busy. We've stayed at the big resort casino hotels, but it's such a long hike to the parking lot. We traded off staying somewhere more 'elegant' for the convenience of parking directly outside our door.

I have been to a lot of hotels and this one is probably the worst. even though it is right on the strip, the hotel room was uncomfortable. When I arrived, there weren't enought towels, they didn'y give us shampoo, the room was very small, and there wasn't that much space to put our clothes. There was one Tv with about 12 channels, but no movies. When I went for a swim, the deepest part of the pool was 4.5 feet. I wanted to relax in the jacuzzi but the water was green and there wasn't even a sign saying it wasn't working. When i came back from a show at 11:30 I was about to go to sleep when I they didn't give me enough pillows to support my back. When i called the front desk he said that he wouldn't be able to get me 3 pillows, only one, and that we wouldn't be able to get them until 12:30 AM. Even though it was a little late, the city that never sleeps should have been able to get me a few pillows.
Overall, I was disappointed with this hotel and I plan to stay in one of the nicer hotels next time.

I came to vegas on vacation in june 2003. My flight was ruined and I arrived late to my check-in but once I walked in the doors, they treated me like a queen!!! They saw what I had went through and how pissed off I was and upgraded my room to a 2bdr queen suite. The total cost for 6 nights was no more than $200 and I loved it. It's a good budget hotel with a pool and a great restaurant(Carrows) right in front. The location was perfect also, right next to the San Remo and across from the MGM Grand. You don't spend much time in the room so why spend all of your $$$ on it??? It had large beds, TV's, and bathroom.
You can't beat that with a STICK!!!!!
