Oasis at Gold Spike

You get what you pay for

Voordelen: The pool was refreshing. The room was clean and hip and the shower was great. The bed was fine - not too hard. Great location if you're staying in downtown vegas and or wanna get into the Gold Strike without waiting in line.

Nadelen: Our air conditioner broke in the middle of the night. It was 120 degrees outside! They were swift about fixing it, but then it kept going on and off every 15 min the rest of the night and my husband and I could not sleep. The air conditioner drowned out the noise of the party at Gold Strike (blaring music til 4am) but without the air conditioner you could hear music and noise, and we weren't even that close to the bar! The pool could use more lounge chairs - I only counted 4. This was the cheapest place I could find on a Saturday night without being a total dive, so you get what you pay for I suppose.

Extremely Loud

Nadelen: Unbeknownst to us there was a "Skating Party" being hosted by the hotel. Despite not seeing anyone else in the entire hotel not at the party we were put in a room directly above the DJ. The music played until after 2:00 AM (which was 4:00 AM Dallas time). The only thing done to help was a couple of ear plugs that were entirely unsuccessful in drowning out the bass. The bed was uncomfortable and there was a smell of smoke in the room despite asking for a non-smoking room. It also took 20 min to check us in despite being the only people in the room trying to check in. Finally we were charged a service fee on top of what we had already paid through Kayak which meant the price reported was not the full price and we would not have stayed there knowing the room was going to be more like $70 for the night instead of $45.

Terribble.

Nadelen: Terrible that they are so hard to reach because they have no phone, just a cell phone. Then they clean my room ouy , with all of my belongings before I check out and one day early. I got most of it back but this should not happen. Loud, far from everything. Overall, bad.

Voordelen: Recently renovated with a mid century style. The bed was comfy and the pool was nice. Location was close to Fremont St so it was easy to find food etc. Price was good.

Nadelen: They provide ear plugs and warn you about noise. It seemed fine at first but as the night goes on it seems to get louder. The sheets didn't seem very clean. The morning we left we had a cockroach that visited our room. Wasn't the first one seen in the property.

Party

Voordelen: Modern hip feel Clean rooms Inexpensive Fremont street is 1 block away Free parking (limited)

Nadelen: Loud at times - they provide ear plugs Party central which never ends (good and bad)
