Absolutely terrible do not book this place it is not like any photo shown the yellow bulding is a house that is 2 lots down from a fenced in area with a couple of windowless sheds “witch they call dubble rooms and hide photos with the yellow building” there is one kinda looks like man build storage unit looking thing that’s probably about 20 feet by 20 feet do not book this place no matter what there are hundreads of better options even at the same price in Vegas on top of that expires will not refund so jus stay away the place in genuinely a scam and I call it a trap for people tha need to make a fast booking
The people were very suspicious even asking for money through Zelle for deposit

This was the WORSE VACATION EVER WITH Hotel .com
This place had dirt and dust on every area I touched in the room, window seal, shelf, counter, nightstand, ac unit, then the so called bedspread had holes in it all over, no matching pillow cases, a tiny bathroom I had to turn side ways to even get into. The front door does not have a doorknob, and the door is an interior bathroom door. They are using it as a front exterior door, which is not only a security issue. They took $200 from me for this room, I refused to stay in because of these conditions.
This will be reported to the BBB and the state or city Building and Planning DEPT.

The place is not what it says. It has hidden fees. The management is terrible. They running a scam operation. Just read all the reviews and that will tell you they're taking people's money and they're not being able to stay there. They're double booking. Just stay away and save your money! You've been warned.

The room was very clean. The staff were very nice and trustworthy. It is a low budget place to rest your head, but you can't go wrong when you factor in the price. They have a pretty cool setup outside if you want to relax and have a drink. My suite had a fridge and a microwave. I would definitely recommend for anyone that needs a place to rest their head and have nice hot a shower.

It was a good budget room nothing 5 stars.. somewhere you can lay your head down and sleep and feel safe.. I didnt have the money to go all out in a real nice stay.. I would recommend the yellow penthouse to anyone that doesn't mind down grading just to conserve money to have fun on your trip...

The manager did not answer his phone and we needed to check out between five and six the same day as we told him that when we checked in. The business hours were between 10 AM and 7 PM. There was no toilet paper in the public restroom. We had one roll of toilet paper in our room that we needed to take to the bathroom.

When my mother and myself first came to sign all of the contracts he started joking about how people cheat and how easy it is to cheat and started talking about sex and I told him please don't be disrespectful talking about sex in front of my mother. And even though the terms state that only credit cards are accepted and that no debit cards or cash is accepted he kept trying to get me to cash app him the money for the transaction and I thought that was not correct!
The man Arturo was very very disrespectful to me when I asked to speak to a manager and he told me to get away from his house while flinging his hand away. I have never been so disrespected at an Airbnb in my life.. and this was after falsely accusing us (myself and my mother) of smoking inside of the room when he saw us on the camera go in and out to smoke in the street as he directed us.. I asked him to come in the room to smell for himself and he said he didn't smell anything but still disrespected me when I asked to speak to a manager... I spoke to the owner and he reassured me that I would be getting my $100 deposit back as well as the $30 a night I spent at the property which in total would be $190 and I have yet to receive that and it has been a couple of days already and I have received nothing.

What looks like yellow penthouse. First, it was not yellow. It is an old structure with many permanent month by month tenants. I booked for a hotel and it turned out an unsafe b&b. There was a weird person on the street near the property all the time who was asking questions. My uber driver helped me to see the right person for my checkin but once my uber left, i did not feel safe and I did not stay there under the unsafe environment. Tried to cancel but they said it's non refundable. Poor me.

When I first got there my room wasn't ready so they let me stay in b-01 and they promised a 100 dollar refund for not getting my room ready on time. They tried to charge me for dirty towels and other random things on the property but everything wasn't the cleanest to begin with. It's the staff's job to clean everything on the property not the customers. They also tried to charge me for not leaving before 11am I was supposed to leave at 11:30 am according to Expedia. This was my firt time in Las Vegas and it was not a good time. Do not rent a room from these people they have mental health issues or something.

This is a older private home, split in bedroom of various sizes with communal bathrooms. It is an old house and as such, room to room noise can be a problem. Know that facility managers do not stay or live onsite, so call their number when you arrive. This is nicer and offers privacy that the local hostiles don't have, but is just one step up from that.

Met more than my expectations

I visit Vegas about twice a year, and this is the first time I’ve ever stayed off the strip. The resort fees have made it almost unaffordable and especially not worth it! I decided to book a single room here, and did not regret it one bit, with a 15 min drive to the strip, I can only imagine how much money I saved not dealing with a $55 per night resort fee, ridiculous uber prices, and constant smoke. Guess what? I even got a refrigerator and microwave! Your don’t get that on the strip, no matter how much you pay!

I’m bad with names; I think the owner’s name is Josh. He was very friendly and asked if I needed more toiletries. My only complaint is that it can be kind of loud because they are renovating the place to look nicer so it’s not a real complaint.

Keep your room clean! I took out my trash almost every day because I would hate to see such a great and adorable property become infested with roaches. Some people mentioned that this neighborhood is “ghetto.” It’s not at all, just low income. You see much more trashy people in the strip!!!

TOTAL DISASTER!!!

I can't give the place a review because it was all closed & locked up when I arrived late last night! The structure appeared to be a complete dump from the outside but may have been very pleasant inside however, I'll never know! I was still charged for the stay although I never could check in & believe me, I pushed the ring door bell, knocked & everything else! It probably would have been a decent stay at a very modest price if I could have gained entry!

When I arrived I waited outside in the cold waiting for the owner. I wanted to pay with multiple payments and he got upset and stated he was loosing money and refused to let me stay there and threatened to call the Police if I did not leave his property in which I ordered another LYFT and left. He was trying to take me and my girlfriend to another location down the street not as advertised, so I think he is a scam and needs to be investigated.

Price was much better than other rooms, place was clean and the stay was comfortable. Would go again despite a few inconveniences. It was like staying in a non-special VRBO or like a friend's guest room, except I didn't see any people. Bathroom down the hall at that door. Space heater here you can plug in if you get cold. Room not centrally heated apparently but not too cold. Bathroom was cold at night, so I went over there an hour before I showered and plugged the space heater in. Figured if someone was in the other room they'd appreciate that. With no sink/mirror in the room itself, I was down the hall again to put on my makeup. Furnishings all clean & new, nothing special. Gave me a code to the outside door. I rolled the gate closed behind my car. Arrival was complex: Parked, lady said that's her spot, reparked. Then guy came out & said to go to other house 2 blocks away, guy there would tell me where to park, waited in front of other house, after a while guy directed me to park around back, showed me room. No credit card reader, so gave me QR code to web site to enter my payment info myself. Somehow I liked the relative informality. I felt comfortable with the people and the place.

I never stayed at the property. When I drove there through the worst neighborhood in the area I called to get access and was told I needed to pay the 25 cleaning and 100 deposit. I told him that was what I was trying to do and was accused of being rude and called a cheap brat that he didnt need to help.I hung up on him and he called me back to continue to insult me.

Cheap but not bad.

This was the cheapest hotel in vegas. We got here a day early and just wanted cheap place to crash. We were skeptical but pleasantly surprised. The people were very nice and the room was very clean. It was a shared bathroom which it did state. Truly the only thing I found was paper towels in the bathroom and maybe a lamp. This was a great place if u are looking for cheap. I will probably stay here again.

Made a reservation for my mother in law both her and I called ahead of time during their normal business hours to let them know of a late check in. Once my mother inlaw arrived they kept making her wait and then refused to give her the keys. Knowing that I made the reservation on her behalf and knowing she was going to have a late check in. Then when I called expedia they refused to issue me a refund because they said we \"canceled\". We were denied the keys it's not a cancelation. Thank you expedia for treating a long time customer like they're not important.

BEWARE – THIS PLACE IS NOT A REGULAR HOTEL/MOTEL
The place is located in a regular neighborhood and it appears to be some type of apartment or condominium condition for lodging. It is definitely yellow but it is most definitely no “penthouse”. The neighborhood did not look very safe – I was concerned about my car all night. The photos posted misrepresent the place. It is clean but some of the furniture is shabby and in tatters. When I arrived, I was extremely disappointed but I had to stay because the fee was “non-refundable” and also I needed a hot shower after two days camping. They do have some good amenities like Netflix, air conditioning, refrigerator and hot water; however, the air conditioning was dirty and my allergies flared up – I had to put a towel to minimize the airflow. The attendant was nice and helpful; however, when he came to register me, he did not have a mask on and seemed to disregard the fact that there is a pandemic happening. Finally, I think the place is overpriced – I stayed in other much cheaper places that were much better than this – and, I was charged some type of “resort” fee.
In my opinion, I would spend a bit more money somewhere else and have a better, safer stay.

The place wasn’t too bad but I can’t give it much of a rating because I wasn’t able to stay there. I had to book another place because I wasn’t legally allowed to have any visitors. I wouldn’t booked it if I would’ve known that. I understand that may be a new law passed in Vegas but being a vacation home, parties involved should notify potential guests about these restrictions. Unfortunately it was non refundable so I didn’t get my money back. My sole purpose of booking this trip was to visit somebody and be able to be comfortable. So instead I had to book another place for my stay. Aside from that huge downside, the inside did seem nice. The surrounding area outside the property is not to be desired. While waiting for the property manager to arrive with the key i had to walk away from the front of the house because of a nauseating odor from somewhere around the property and the neighborhood didn’t seem to welcoming either.
