neo-retro, with a small and dark shower.

The room was comfortable, clean, and nicely equipped. My only criticism is the bathroom is small, with a tiny unlit shower stall. Considering how spacious the room is, the bathroom surprised us.

The rooms are remodeled. This motel is on the road in “historic” part of town. There are several nice restaurants within 3 minute walk. Parking lot is big and you can part in front of your room which is great for those, like me, riding a motorcycle. And the “price point” is great. Much better quality rooms than typical branded low end hotels.

A taste of Americana very much like the rest of Boulder City, the way it used to be. Great motel in a very clean quiet area and not that far to drive into Las Vegas. Stayed here before and will stay again.

My room and the grounds were clean and quiet, and it was really easy to walk almost everywhere I needed to go. Most exceptionally, the manager on-site was so friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay at The Sands.
