We weren't sure where was best to stay when planning our trip to Vegas - there are so many hotels to choose from and because Vegas is such a large expanse we wanted to ensure we were as close to the Strip/Famous Hotels/Casinos as possible.

We booked this hotel mainly on price and location - it was the nearest and best-priced hotel we could find in our budget. We weren't interested in staying in a hotel that has a casino as part of it because we wanted our accommodation to be somewhere to bed down having been out and experienced Vegas... we were more than delighted with this hotel.

We arrived at Villa Roma to find it had been taken under Rodeway Inn's wing and were quite pleased by this, having stayed in two other Rodeways previously and had no problems. Check in was smooth/straightforward - polite and friendly as always, parking outside the doorway to the rooms corridor.

Room - large - with TV, fridge, air con but no tea/coffee making - this was always available in reception. There were fizzy drinks machine and ice machines in the corridor. We used the pool, med-large size (get key from reception as it is gated off), clean and quiet and very relaxing in the Vegas heat.

Breakfast was in a designated breakfast room - you are given a voucher for your room and number of guests - don't lose it! Cereal and pastries available, tea/coffee, no toast/muffins here.

There are some issues with wi-fi connection in room (the signal isn't very well received there), however head into the lobby and connect there. Be careful of the reception's own PC for internet access - it was not working due to being absolutely full of spyware, so don't use it for personal details (online banking etc.)

The location was fabulous - near to Greek Isles Casino, the Hilton and not far from shops, restaurants and the main Strip. A short taxi ride dropped us in the centre of it all and a great night was had by us both.

We could not sing the praises enough of this hotel - it was the upper echelons of value for the price - modest, clean and ideally located for those that do not want to pay the earth for a comfy bed and breakfast in Vegas.

the linens are paper thin. left with plenty of welts from bed bug bites. price and location is nice.

This hotel is located at 1213 S. Las Vegas Blvd. north of the main strip area. This area was once really seedy but they are cleaning it up. You will be safe here. The Rodeway INN is a budget hotel, so it is very far from luxury. However, the rooms are clean and the staff tries hard.

Cabs do not stop here for a variety of reasons including the city codes. The Bus 301 stops right in front of the hotel, however, in case you do not have a car.

THis hotel is a good place to stay if you want to save money and get away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip while in town.

There is a Walgreens located two blocks from the hotel that is open 24 hours a day.
Also, there are two wedding chapels (The Viva las Vegas Chapel and the Little White Wedding Chapel) adjacent to the hotel for those in town for weddings.

With tax was it worth $47.96 a nite? Not really. Spent 2 free nites here in conjunction with viewing a timeshare and paid for the 3rd. Very vintage...that is built over 50 years ago and consisting of 6 separate buildings sitting, next to motel 6. The only thing going for it is that its across from the MGM and at the top of the "Strip" But than again when in Vegas how much time do you spend in your room???
