Travelodge Ambassador Strip Inn Las Vegas - Las Vegas, USA     

I have travelled to Las Vegas 35 times. I live in Ottawa (Canada). I have stayed at 15 different hotels in Las Vegas. This hotel is only a 10 minute walk from the MGM Grand. I stayed here for 5 nights. The reasons I stayed here (for the first time) were location and price. This past weekend was very expensive for hotels in Las Vegas. I booked directly via the hotel website. The average price was $60 a night. On the plus side, if you bring a laptop computer, the internet is free. Other hotels will charge an average of $11 to $14 a day for high speed internet. Also, from 7 to 9am, there is a continental breakfast in the lobby. There is orange juice, coffeee, ceral, and danishes. It's not a full breakfast, but it's free, and starts the day. The USA Today newspaper is also complimentary. There is also a free shuttle service to/from the airport. If you take a cab, it was cost about $12 each way. There is a safe in every room. I was a little concerned about the location. I don't like travelling off the strip. However, the location was fine. I carry quite a bit of money on me, but I had no issues walking to and from the hotel and the strip. The Motel6 is right next door. So, when I walked to the strip, I walked through the Motel6 parking lot. There are plenty of lights. The room was a basic room. I have stayed at Super8's before, and it's similiar. It's a clean room. I travelled alone, and it was perfect for me. The staff were very friendly, and I would stay here again. This hotel may not be for everybody, but I was very pleased with my stay.

I wanted a budget hotel for a Saturday night close to the Mandalay Bay and this hotel served this purpose. The free airport shuttle was convenient on leaving, although I had to wait 30 minutes longer than expected for it. On arrival, as my plane had been delayed 3 hours, I was in too much of a hurry to consider locating it and waiting for it. I had a good sized clean room with a king size bed, a bath/shower, in-room safe, microwave fridge and in-room coffee with more available in the lobby for 24/7. There was an iron, ironing board and hair dryer a large TV with basic channels + HBO, but the remote did not work even when I tried new batteries. There was a small little used pool in the car park. Whilst I could leave my bags in the lobby after checking out of my room, there was no access to a toilet once you had checked out. The staff and manager were particularly unhelpful in this respect.
