Everything was perfect and exactly as expected. It’s a small studio, so the decor is a bit dated and the bed is foldable—but for four nights, it worked out great. The kitchenette was a real plus, letting us cook our own meals and save money. We even brought a small toaster—maybe the platform left one behind? Cleanliness and staff service were excellent, and access to the pool area was convenient with well-maintained facilities. The only minor downside was some construction noise in the mornings, which might be noticeable if you’re sensitive to sound. Also, walking back through the corridor late at night from the strip can feel a little eerie with just one staff member on duty, though the lighting was decent overall. Still, it’s a solid choice for travelers who value comfort, convenience, and good value.

Staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Las Vegas City Center was a solid choice for me. The hotel is just across a major street from the Strip, so walking over is possible—though it means passing through several other hotels, which makes it less direct than expected. We arrived by car initially, but parking proved difficult and expensive, so we switched to Uber for short trips—around $10–$15 per ride, which felt reasonable.
