El Cortez is a fine hotel/casino Nice bar, decent food. I prefer being on the end of Freemont due to the noise. The only downside is the A/C could barely keep up with the 106 degree temp, and it was loud. Great hotel to airport shuttle. I've stayed before and I would stay again

I stayed on the 7th floor and the hallway, flooring and the room were fantastic!! The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillow options, the room temp was great, and the bathroom is excellent! The rain type shower head, with an attached wand, is among the best of any hotel I've been in! Overall, a 5 of 5 experience!

Stayed in the tower rooms for a weekend, Exceeded our expectations! Was a bit skeptical at first just cause of its age, but overall it was clean and welcoming. Nights can be a bit loud due to the nightclubs literally right outside, being tired enough won’t bother you 😁 thanks to the incredibly nice staff

Stayed two nights. Great stay if you’re looking within a budget! If super fancy updates are your style then you might want to stay somewhere else but we were perfectly satisfied. Starbucks on site was a big bonus! Our rooms were located by the parking garage which was very convenient. Beds were firm but comfy. Pillows were soft. While super hot outside the room stayed nice and cool. Would stay again.
