The lobby and casino were very clean but rooms left a bit to be desired. Sink did not drain but they did fix it. The internet connection did not work. It was convenient to where we needed to go. Parking was easy and always available. Food in the cafe was not good.
Had a wonderful stay

My husband and I went to the CES convention in January. This hotel was perfect! The staff was very friendly and helpful with directions. It is kind of far away from the strip and traffic is horrible but, I it was worth it for us. They do offer a shuttle to the strip so you don't have to drive. Also the food in excellent at awesome prices and the room was very clean.
Too far away!

This was our 1st visit to Vegas. Thought we were getting a good deal, about $ 43 per night, but there is no shuttle to the strip which is 5 miles away. You have to take taxi 40.00 from airport, 20plus to strip one way. There is a city bus stop, but wouldn't recommend at night and it takes forever. Nothing wrong with the hotel it was clean enough and decent for the price, but unless you have your own transportation stay on the strip or at the palace station which is only 1/2 mile from the strip and has a shuttle. Good Luck.
Poor Service / Poor Upgrade Value / Rude Staff

The Asst. Mgr. that checked us in was rude and misinforming. The other desk clerk staff was just as rude; only the mgr. Nancy was helpful. The Feast buffet was nasty. The $25 upgrade that they say includes unlimited bottled water, candy and popcorn actually only includes 2 small bottled waters in a tiny fridge, 1 generic choc bar on your nightstand and one packet of stale Act II butter popcorn. Your request for more is met with frustration and some resistance. This also is billed as $27 and some change for the $25 upgrade fee. You are also charged $5.40, unannounced at check in, on top of everything else paid for "hotel service." We were told by the manager that this cost is, in part, to pay for the coupons that they give you at check in. The hotel staff placed a hold on our debit card without disclosing they were going to. We were advised at check in that the debit or credit card needed to be on file for any room damages incurred during our stay or discovered after checkout. They placed a $100 hold and then a hold for our balance of $23. Granted, the holds were cleared after the manager advised us that if we, and we did, pay the entire week up front, which we attempted to do at check in with the asst mgr, in which he refused to accept the payment. When we offered to go ahead and pay upfront at check in, the assist mgr said "no, just pay when you check out," and made no disclosure about placing a hold on our card. Our vacation was practically ruined because of the dealings with this hotel. We will NOT return and will NOT recommend this hotel.
GREAT PLACE TO STAY AND EAT

Hi,
It is hard to find a good place to stay and eat near the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
But, this place has it all. Enjoyed my stay so much that I am going back October 2008 for the next NHRA drag race. Loved the Fat Burger and italian restuarants at Texas Station. I traveled alone and found it easy to eat out. Texas Station also gives you a free game of bowling for you and three friends if you have time. Go relax and have a good time.
