Reviews and opinions are the same thing. Here is mine. Needed a Thursday night room prior to our Fri-Sun stay at the Nugget. We pulled into the Western Village and parked in the casino lot. Arrived around 3pm and found the Hotel registration desk with no problem. Only 2 people in front and took less than 10 minutes to check in. Asked for a lakeview room and got it on the first floor. The young gal that checked us in did a great job. The lakeview was right outside our window. The parking lot is between the hotel and the lake. I liked that I could park our car right outside our room window. We spent the afternoon playing penny keno machines. Not loose, but not tight. Played a long time on my $20 bucks. Had a couple Crown and Coors for the price of a dollar beer. Went to the Steak house to eat. It was an excellent cut of prime rib with all the fixins. With a glass of wine it was $63.00 plus tip for the 2 of us.

If you're a smoker and a gambler with no children, this might be the place for you. This is NOT a place for families. It reeks of cigarette smoke. After standing in line for almost a half hour in the stinky casino, I tried to cancel when I got to the top of the line but it was too late. I hoped that, since the rooms were separate from the casino, they might be better. My son and I went across the carpark and were greeted by a dead bird on the sidewalk, swarmed by insects. Once inside, the smell of smoke hit us again, with an overflowing ashtray of butts right by the elevator. We got to the "non-smoking" room - peee ewww". We signed on for internet access, only to find that you have to pay for each "device" - it's not roomwide. We quickly got online and booked a room at the Grand Sierra Resort -- and got out of dodge. Best decision we made! GSR a great place to stay and only 10-20 bucks a night more! Save yourself the misery and don't stay here!

We were recently in Sparks for a Senior softball tournament. We were promised clean, comfortable rooms and were not disappointed! We were also impressed with the fabulous food at the Marina Cafe and Pancho & Willies! What a great asset to be able to eat every meal without leaving the premises! And not only was the food fabulous, the prices were equally so! The 99 cent margaritas at P&W's were the best!! We will definitely stay here again! Another bonus was the free shuttle service to the Legends Factory Outlet Mall and to downtown Reno, not to mention to & from the airport. We found this to be very convenient!

Very good Price per night, clean and big room. We got a VIP Card for Outlet Shoping center (near hotel) - it was very good and we saved more, than we paid for night. Disadvantage is not Free Internet acces. We were very satisfied.
