Las Vegas Garden Hotel

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (5)
"The property is fabulous! I enjoyed my stay very much. The staff is friendly and courteous. The only issue I had at all was the Timeliness of the Service. That said, I am from Houston, Texas and we move very quickly. So, as long as you have all the time in the world, the service is great! If they moved a bit quicker, I would have appreciated it even more-so! Majid Ale-Ebrahim"

"Das Zimmer war sehr spartanisch eingerichtet und entsprach vor allem in Farben (Wände) nicht den dargestellten Fotos. Etwaige Dekorationen fehlten komplett.
