of the srip on koual lane next to ellis island good base for srip and beer good rooms free coffee and tea in lobby and rooms good value not five star but two pool small and hot tub

Just returned from yet another visit to Vegas and stayed in Super 8 Koval Lane again.
I have stayed here on numerous occasions and enjoyed it.
Rooms are pretty big and always clean.
Coffee in rooms and also free coffee, capucinno,hot choc. etc. in reception area.
Free pick up and drop off at airport.
The Ellis Island Casino, next door, has a great restaurant although it does get busy at nights and weekends but it's well worth the wait as the food and portions are superb!
A five minute walk through Ballys casino will get you on The Strip.
Bottom line is the place is clean, moderate price, free WIFI in rooms and staff are fine.
After staying in many of the "big" hotels on The Strip I have found that the Super 8 has all that they have got to offer but more reasonably priced.
Swimming pool is pretty small but is OK.

Koval Lane Super 8 Motel needs to renew its mattressses and its attitude.. We stayed there recently and my husband was badly bitten from his neck down to his toes by bed bugs. We are now back home and 29 days later while the redness has gone away we can still see the lumps from these bites. They were so bad my husband didn't feel he could wear shorts the whole time we were away, the temps were 100 degrees upwards so there was quite a bit of discomfit cause by this.
While they took 3 days charge off our bill and moved us to another room their attitude was "oh, so what, stuff happens". One of the staff said she had manage to take some of these bugs home with her and the bites had driven her crazy for a week. Thats fine if you are at home and can deal to these things but it's not quite so easy when you are visiting from abroad.

We reserved two motel rooms for the night of September 27, 2008. Upon arrival, after noticing that the location was nothing like what was indicated on the website, rather it was scary and dirty, we checked in anyway, aware that their cancellation policy was for 24 hours prior and it was too late. We paid $125 for each non-smoking room, in two different names. The first room smelled terrible, like smoke covered with air freshener. The second room had a huge, dead cockroach on the sink. The two men immediately went to the manager and reported this, stating that we were not going to spend the night in a place with bugs like that. He offered to move us to another room, offered a $20 then $30 discount on the one room, but refused any other deal. We wanted a refund, and would have been happy with even a half-refund. The manager/owner got very angry and accused us of just wanting to stay in a better hotel on the strip. First of all, we don't gamble, we are two families with young kids and were on our way home to Utah from Disneyland, so his claims were unfounded. Secondly, as if we would plant a roach in a room to get out of a reservation!

We called the Super 8 people, to no avail. We asked them to just transfer our reservation to another super 8 in St. George or somewhere on our way home, they refused. I understand policy, but it is poor customer service that when what we agreed to isn't delivered that they still kept our money. We did go on to St. George that night and stayed at a very nice "Ambassador Inn".

On October 6, I received one check for $30 and a letter explaining that they spray regularly for bugs and the dead bug was an indication that the fact that it was dead means their spray is working. Yuck. We lost money on two rooms, though, and as of this writing, only received the pittance on the one room. We also received a letter from the President of Super 8, stating that we should take our complaint to the owner/manager of the Las Vegas Super 8. Obviously, this means they don't care about our experience or making sure we don't have a bad taste in our mouths about Super 8.

Needless to say, we will never stay in a Super 8 again. It was disgusting and not as nice as the website indicated at all.

The problem is, if the place has to spray for bugs frequently, they have a bug problem. And where there's one roach seen, there are thousands unseen. We simply couldn't sleep there knowing this.
