The hotel had a convenient location just a block away from Fremont Street Experience with friendly staff. Although the rooms were untidy and had a strong smell of cigarettes, the service really embraced their motto 'Aloha Lives Here'. The dining experience was reasonably priced but with limited options, and the facilities were adequate.

The hotel offers extremely poor ventilation in the rooms, but the beds are comfy, and the overall cleanliness is on point. The staff is incredibly helpful. The location near Fremont Street and the convenient transport options make it a relaxed choice with vibrant nightlife. Dining with a voucher allotment is tasty. Some renovations are improving the conference and mezzanine areas.

The hotel provided a nice, spacious, and clean room above the bridge connecting the hotels; however, the heater didn't work properly, so it was quite cold overnight, and we had to sleep in our clothes to keep warm. The staff members were very friendly and accommodating, although some seemed a bit distracted. The location was convenient, close to transportation for exploring local destinations. The dining experience was decent but not as good as expected. In terms of facilities, there were positive upgrades but also room for improvement.

The hotel's rooms were spacious and clean, providing good value, but in need of repairs and a long way from the elevator. The service was good overall, with helpful and rapid response from the staff, although lacking in people skills. The location was perfect, right next to the Fremont Street Experience, ideal for exploring Las Vegas easily. The dining was connected through the bridge and offered some renovated nice upgrades. Facilities were satisfactory but could use some improvements.

The hotel is conveniently located right next to the vibrant Freemont Street Experience, offering easy access to entertainment and dining options. The rooms are a mix of modern comfort and in need of some repairs, but the friendliness of the staff compensates for any minor inconveniences.

The hotel was conveniently located close to transportation options, including the bus stop to the Strip and the Main Street station. The Hawaii theme added charm, but there was a slight odor in the hallway. The rooms were adequate in size but had a quirky layout. The dining options were not as impressive as expected, with a slightly high brunch cost for two. Despite some distractions at the reception, the service was generally helpful. A family-friendly hotel in the downtown area, right on Fremont Street.

The service is top-notch and easily among the best in Las Vegas, though some staff members may appear slightly distracted.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms weren't super clean initially but were comfortable. There was a bit of noise from Free Mount Street late at night due to the ongoing demolition of the Las Vegas Club. The service was top-notch, with the staff being very pleasant, friendly, efficient, and thoughtful. The location was perfect for me, just a block away from Freemont Street, providing a quiet escape from the noise yet being close to all the attractions downtown. However, the dining experience left much to be desired after using a voucher for breakfast. The facilities were decent, though could have been improved in certain aspects.

The hotel is perfectly located just a block away from the Fremont Street Experience, which was super convenient for the festival event I attended. The rooms, although a bit small, were very clean and reasonably priced. The service was exceptional, with a professional and kind staff who were always helpful. However, the cramped location made maneuvering a bit challenging. The dining options were not as good as expected, but the price for the brunch was quite reasonable. Overall, a great value for the amenities provided.

The hotel is conveniently located near Fremont Street, allowing easy access without the noise of staying directly on Fremont. The rooms had varied eating choices nearby, from ice cream to Hawaiian cuisine, although the decor seemed a bit dated from the 80s. Service was friendly, even though there were instances of staff seeming less motivated to assist. The location was perfect for exploring the area, with transport options to the Strip and the airport close by. Dining options were good, with connections to different cuisines, and there was a slight smell in the hallway that could be off-putting. Overall, a good value for the money.
