Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel

Great Place for Cheap Price

I read some of the other reviews after booking my flight and I was kind of apprehensive about staying there. I'm happy to report my stay was nothing like some of the other reviews. Yes their curtains and comforters are out of date, but the room was clean! The staff was pleasant and helpful. I'd stay there again.

I knew not to expect much, but...

I knew this was an older hotel, but decided to stay at Binion's since I was meeting others there, and was going to be staying in downtown Vegas. At my 3pm check-in, I was told that no rooms were available and to come back in 30 minutes. I came back to the counter at 3:20, and waited in line for over 30 minutes. There was 1 person working the check-in desk (and check-out, and phones, 1 person period). When I finally arrived at the desk, I questioned her about why they would have only 1 person working. She stated that the day prior she was at the desk for 5 1/2 hours straight without getting up to get a drink of water or use the bathroom. When I went up to my room, it wasn't even done! I immediately called down to the hotel operator and it rang 67 times before I hung up. Then I called the front desk, ringing 50 more times before the hotel operator picked up, transferred me back to the desk, which rang 10 times and then she answered. She offered to switch me to a new room. While I was trying to reach the front desk/hotel operator, the housekeeping crew came to the room, so I told the front desk not to worry about switching rooms, since who knew whether that one was ready anyway. As I was on the phone, housekeeping attempted to put the SAME blankets and bedspreads back on the beds. I told them NO! She said they just changed them the other day.. YUCK!! I know it's common to keep the bedspreads on the beds, but the blanket? Come on! I can say after they finished cleaning my room, I probably had the cleanest room in Vegas! They spent a total of 40 minutes cleaning up my room, because I kept pointing out areas they missed and made sure they actually cleaned things!! The worst part about this entire experience, when I asked the front desk for the manager, they told me the General Manager "Marcus" is off on the weekends. I asked for the manager on duty, she told me there ISN'T one! Well, with this information, it's NO WONDER that there were problems! I'm going to be fol

Old

IT is a good deal for the money but, I was up till about 430am 'typical vegas' only to be awaken by a phn call from front desk stating that there was a leak coming from my bath rooom to the room below and engineering would be up shortly to check the problem. They CUT a hole into the wall only to find it was not coming from our room. Then RETURNED to check if he left any tools behind...THEN sent housekeeping to clean the dust all within 1/2 hour. I JUST WANTED TO SLEEP WITH NO SAWS OR FRONT DESK PHN CALLS OR HOUSEKEEPING WAKING ME EVERY 10 MINUTES!!!> I was more upset that I wasnt offered a Meal or Drink or free play for the inconvienience. It is OLD and and needs a touchup BAD> but if you wanna stay cheap you get what you pay for.

Great Deal

The room was very clean and the staff was very kind.

Probably the last time I’ll stay here

This was my second stay at Binion’s and it will probably be my last. Overall, the hotel was comfortable. The shower head was broken and only provided a half of the pressure I would expect. Also, the Fremont Street Experience show woke me in the middle of the night from its music. The beds did not help my sleeping either. It is a good deal for the price. However, I would recommend spending a little more and upgrading.

NEEDS INPROVEMENT

WATCH OUT FOR THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE MANAGER THEY WILL STEAL YOUR COMP DOLLARS,IF YOU LET THEM!

Great for the money

Great location, friendly staff and very clean. We weren't in our room much so it was perfect, if you were to go to bed early it may be a little noisy as you are right on Fremont Street but that's what I liked about it. The roof top pool is cool too.

You get what you pay for

It was what I expected and convenient for the event I was attending. But the property is definitely showing its age. Missing tiles in the bathroom, uncomfortable beds, curtains that take lots of work to get fully closed. Housekeeping was spotty with a trip to the front desk needed to replenish bathroom supplies that were missed during the daily cleaning. Also the fire alarm went off at one point and following the usual "we are investigating" announcement, nothing. Finally, needing to leave and with the elevators shut down, I walked down 20 flights. No wi-fi although at least on the high floor I was on, you could pick up pay wi-fi services from other nearby properties. I'd stay here again by myself but would not bring family here.

Excellent Location, Value Priced

If you like downtown, this is right in the heart. Your room is a quick walk to the poker room and all the casino. Restaurants and other conveiences abound. Considering the price, the best value in Vegas. You shouldnt be spending much time in your room anyway!

Same Old Same Old

What can I say, Binion's is Binion's is Binion's. If you are looking for a cheap sleep downtown with a great location mid-Freemont, it is impossible to beat. Did the AC in my room only quasi-work? Sure. Did the room only get made up 5 out of 8 days of my stay? Foreget about it. If you can tolerate that the place is what it is, it is an excellent choice.

Don't expect Taj Mahal for Motel Six money

The room was basically what I expected. The furnishings were old, and they showed their age. the room was clean, and the reason I got it was because I stayed one more day in Vegas than I had planned, it was cheap, and I enjoy gambling in the Fremont St. area. the people were nice, the bellman was exceptional, and I got what I though I would. Igf I weant luxury I'll go elsewhere, but it was a clean comfortable room, ev en though there were stains in the hallway carpet.

Poor Customer Service

Binion's employees lack customer service skills and are rude. The nicest employee I encountered was our housekeeper. If you do not mind taking a cold shower or listening to the A/C unit all night or the use of 1 elevator it seemed, then this is a great place to stay. The rooms could use a renovation. We had a nice piece of duct tape hilding the carpet down in front of the bathroom door. But for the reasonable price, what can you really expect?

Good Downtown location for money

It was OK.
