We stayed here 5 nights in a two bed apartment. We were a little sceptical from the reviews but when we got there we were pleasantly surprised. Everything looked clean, nice big beds and a cosy bathroom and not to mention the great balcony that we chilled on. The nice receptionist made our stay feel safe and nice, we had a problem with the lock and he fixed it right away with no problem. The pool area was very nice had good ice cream and a nice vibe. We have nothing bad to say except for all the loud British boys that were staying in the hotel and tried to play a prank on us the first night.
Please read ‼I went here on a holiday this August with my boyfriend and another couple we had seen all the reviews and were so worried about what awaited but when we got there and saw how spacious and clean the room was I was already put at ease when your booking a hotel on or near the strip you are not going for luxury anyway it was a 3 minute walk from Aldi and 6 minute walk from the strip I will say the only thing is there is no air conditioning in the rooms which in August would make it hard however we bought a cheap fan so whoever gets our room next we left it there;)if your relying on your apartment to be self catering I will say it lacks a little in that area in regards to dishes ect we had to buy plastic bowels played cups and some cutlery but can find cheap In spar :) now our friends had some dishes that we didn’t have and likewise we had stuff they didn’t I’d say from people breaking friendly staff at pool and reception when needed extra towels ect cleaners not the best one day you could go in bin would be empty bed not made next day bed could be made with full bin and dirty towels but overall is a great place close to the strip Clean as long as you keep it the way they give it you you
Great Experience at Cheerful Way Minichoro. Stayed for 4 nights and Carlos at front desk was there to help us whenever we needed anything he was amazing! Would definitely come again. Great value for money and Location also.
