Perfect location if you plan on spending the evening enjoying the free bands and intoxicating activities at the Freemont Experience. Safe walk to AND from Freemont. Most staff were super frendly. Parking is available, but tight, take the valet option. Room and beds we clean and comfortable. And avid travelers will appreciate this one, Our smoke free room was actually smoke free smelling...(it was nice) Our fridge was quite small, just big enough to cook a few snacks and a couple beverages. Water pressure was sketchy, but got the job done. So no real complaints. I would and will stay here again. And recommend it to anyone who plans on an amazing Freemont experience!

Room was great, some areas were clean as a whistle and others were on the level of a tenement. Elevators flat out gross and only one working the entire stay. Such potential with just a little spit and polish.

I dropped my phone as we were returning to the hotel from a night out - security staff found the phone and returned it to me - big shout out to the staff at this hotel!!! Besides that, our room is beautiful! Clean, comfortable and elegant! I recommend booking a tower room, worth the extra money, especially when you compare it to the price of a room ‘on the strip’. Lovely lovely staff!

We would love to go back to El Cortez again and I am sure we will! The staff was extremely friendly and we enjoyed interacting with them. The casino was just the right size. Not too big and not too small. We did well As far as win to loss ratios and had a great time doing it. The rooms were absolutely amazing! It felt like we were at home there. The opportunity to swipe at the kiosk every day gave us a lot of additional benefits and we enjoyed that. The only downfall we had on this trip was that the air conditioning did not seem to be working a couple days at the casino and it was quite hot in there. I thought perhaps they might bring in some emergency fans to circulate air. But that was truly the only hiccup. I am sure they will get it fixed. I would book my room higher in the tower next time because the bass from the streets especially Fremont was Notable at night but it did not preclude us from falling asleep. Fremont was crazy and fun and interesting. There are a lot of homeless people but they We're not intrusive and the hotel has excellent security. None of the people on the streets bothered us and in fact we shared leftovers with them And they were truly grateful. We will definitely be staying there again the next trip!

I liked this property it was kept up very well. But when we asked for some extra pillows we were told only one more pillow was all we could have. The bed when made looked very nice but three flat pillows on a king sized bed and two people isn’t really fair

What I did not like about this property is that I had a family member get involved in a serious car accident which caused me to miss my flight from Ohio to Las Vegas and the property refused to let me cancel or reschedule my reservation without charging me a penalty fee what kind of heartless non-caring company still charges you a full nice day plus a penalty fee for missing a flight because of a family member ending up in the hospital from a car accident
