Bridger Inn Hotel Las Vegas — Hotel in Las Vegas

If you are one who reads the worst reviews of a place, please read this first, as this is a RECENT review, the lower rating reviews were written YEARS ago. I strongly encourage those that who just want a hotel room to sleep in, not hang around a hotel, to come here. People think a high rating means it is a luxury hotel and this is not why I'm giving this such a high rating, it's for their humanity and the value you get for what you pay. It's not pretentious, centrally located, close to Fremont St and Greyhound station for much less cost than neighboring hotels, clean, quiet and safe (see below why).I said hotel is good for business not because they have conference rooms but for a company watching their budget and not wanting to spend a lot of money for rooms AND they have free parking, something some of these expensive hotels should have but don't (ironically, when a budget hotel doesn't try to gouge you on other things!)||||||My credit and debit card was lost or stolen and I was just a few dollars short yet one of the clerks made sure that I could stay, something a large chain or upscale hotel would NEVER do. I had tried going to cheaper hotels, but they were bait and switch, low base rates but then they have mandatory "resort" fees and stupid deposits. One would think at a low cost hotel such as this, they would have a security deposit, but I guess they don't because they don't regard their guests as potential thieves. The only mandatory fee is the key deposit, which are the old fashioned not card keys, which is $10, wifi is included and a non mandatory fee is if you want to make outgoing calls on their phones but you are not charged for incoming calls. Although this was considered a one star hotel because it's close to tourist attraction, the price is mid range (but cheaper than others close to Fremont Street.)||||Although the clientele aren't the typical well healed tourists, they are friendly and quiet at night. The day clerk, a woman makes very sure that only guests come through so you can feel safe. They do not have a grand lobby but you don't have to walk 20 minutes through a casino to get to your room. The bathrooms may have been renovated, the shower has good water pressure and lots of towels including wash cloths! All items, lamp, (yes they are a little dated but that makes them more interesting than the banal items in chain hotels) phone, ac are working, carpets must have been all right as I don't remember anything unusual about it, rooms and bedding is clean, NO bugs! There is only soap in the bathroom but if you need, shampoo, lotion or toothpaste you can ask for it at the desk. Staff is friendly...

I would not typically stay at this type of hotel but with the EDC concert and ComicCon everything in town was ridiculously priced. We were in town for one night and didn't really care where we stayed in the city. Found this in Orbitz.||The rooms are thankfully much nicer than the outside indicates. There is only a dozen first come parking spots and we were lucky enough to pull in as someone was leaving. Otherwise parking is very inconvenient.||The main issue is it was a really hot weekend and the AC unit couldn't cool the room. It was unbearable in the morning. The entire building was hot but our room was much warmer.||This is also a boutique hotel which really means old building not renovated. There is one entrance in and a small elevator. Very nice people run the hotel. There is no hair dryer and amenities are nonexistent. They also have an actual key and TV remote you take and return. ||Other than being hot our floor reeked of rancid pot smoke and there was a large wet spot outside the bathroom door that smelled of cleaning product and never dried. Kind of creeped us out knowing what goes on in Vegas.||Convenient to Fremont Street but in a transient area with a lot of weirdos. We left at 5 am and a man and women walked in, seemingly new acquaintances, to get a room (no luggage, drinks in hand). Not really a place I'd pick to stay again but okay and quiet...

We reserved double rooms over the phone with Amanda, the rooms were to have two queen beds in them. When I arrived, the same Amanda who I booked the rooms with told me that "we don't have double rooms." She even went as far as to say "there is no way I would have let you book those rooms, because we don't even have rooms like that." This was very untrue as I booked double queen rooms over the phone and confirmed it with her verbally. They don't send confirmation emails, which should have been a red flag. She she gave me a confirmation # over the phone but I obviously didn't have anything to show her when I was checking in. She told me "I can just cancel your reservation and you can stay somewhere else" which doesn't help me at the time because there are no hotels available at the last minute on a weekend in Vegas. She offered me rooms with two twin beds in them, but this meant that I had to purchase additional rooms to accommodate the number of people in my group (traveling college sports team) and defeated the purpose of booking this cheaper hotel in the first place. TV in the room also had no sound. Uber driver also told us to be careful at night walking around the corner that the hotel is on, as it's not...
