text: I booked my latest trip to Vegas using Orbitz, and for my budget this little gem of the desert popped up. I have never heard of or seen this place before so I wasn't even sure about staying there. After some research, I decided, what the hell. It's not like I'm taking it home to mom. \n\nAnyway, I'm really happy I ended up choosing it. It was very cozy and I still got to be close to the strip without paying strip pricing. They don't allow smoking in the rooms but they do have a tiny balcony (and I mean like protruding only 16in before you fall off kind of tiny) that you can puff away from. \n\nIt doesn't have a casino though, but it's only around the corner from the Wynn so it's not a problem to just walk over there and gamble. It's also right next door to a KBBQ spot and a good sized liquor store, so that made it a big plus for me =)
