Nice place, interesting mix

Rooms are clean, though modestly equiped and some thought was put into their most recent redesign. The building itself shows its age, but is not run-down or grimy, just dated. The pool has an interesting mix of locals and out of towners, which is cool because you can get the insude scoop on local goings on. There is little attitude at the pool, but there were a couple locals who were there Friday-Sunday and spent most of the day drunk and slightly obnoxious. Poolside nudity is about 50/50 and, as usual, the guys you want to see naked are invariably wearing trunks and vice versa. In spite of the numerous "no lewd conduct" signs at the pool, we were all treated to the sight of an older gentleman getting a handjob from a (slightly) younger gentleman while floating on one of the pool rafts. A car is useful if you planon sight-seeing, but lets face it, it is usually WAY too hot to walk anywhere in Vegas anyway! Staff is nice and seems to be discreet. All in all an interesting alternative to you standard Vegas hotel.

A worthwhile resort on the cruisy side

I visited in early June and the poolside and hotel was packed full of men of all shapes and sizes. While there were too many fashionable swimsuits for my liking, it didn't seem that many of the men were full of attitude; if anything most me were too themselves catching some sun, swimming, or reading a book. Occasionally they'd look up and smile, and later on you'd make a connection with them in the steam room or video room. The pool area is beautiful, and my only complaint is that it is hard to find an unoccupied lounge chair. The rooms are adequate and updated, not luxurious but far from trashy. However, your furnishings are basic and simple, so if you are looking for a romanticly posh retreat for you and your lover I would suggest staying elsewhere. This resort is definitely for the single traveler who wants to meet with new friends, or for open partners who are open to new experiences.

Clean

The hotel is a little off the beaten path, you really need a car if you stay here. Though its only a few blocks from the strip ( the way the crow flies ) , the walk could be a little dangerous since there are no sidewalks along a very busy highway. Thete was a party while we there and the place was very crowded with a bunch of young party queens who had no respect for the guests of the hotel. While i am no prude, i was a little put of by the party boys having sex in every nook and cranny that they could find. On the day of the party the staff at the hotel were too busy to clean the room. I felt that the local party boys were more important than the paying guest of the hotel. I would stay there again, but would make sure there were no partys for the locals during my visit.

It is what a GAY hotel should be

It has all the elements most gay people expect from a gay hotel. It is small which makes it cozy. It has a cute pool and nice rooms, and it is clean. It is not the Bellagio in terms of luxury, but it does not need to be. Personally, I go to a gay hotel for the fun of being surrounded by gay guys, not to have dinner with Celine Dion. I agree the location can be a handicap if you do not have a car. But also, we have to understand that it is hard (to almost impossible) to have a clothing optional gay hotel in the middle of the strip. It is very similar to the gay hotels in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
