The D

Awesome, awesome! The new rooms are clean, the staff was so friendly and I will definitely be back.
The only gripe I had was the construction going on during the day wakes you up at 9 am.

Stayed at The D for a week. Beds very comfortable. Great customer service. Awesome location. Plenty of places to eat. And free concert was a plus.

For the price, I thought it was excellent. Yes, it is loud. Extremely loud. That’s what you get for staying in downtown. For the convenience I didn’t mind. I just turned my ac unit to «fan only» and that helped drown out the noise enough to sleep.
It’s a Vegas hotel, so you’ll be smelling like a lit cigarette the moment you walk in. There’s noise and bright lights and everything that makes it a casino inside. Since I booked off Hotwire for $ 14/​night before taxes and fees, I was a pretty damn happy camper.
The showers are weird but honestly I make a bigger mess at home with my full shower curtain than I did at this place with the weird «open plan» shower. The keypad elevator is strange at first but that’s easy to get the hang of, too.
The accommodations as a whole are pretty spartan, but since I was looking for a bathroom and a bed I was pretty stoked with it. Everything seems recently remodeled so it felt like being in a new hotel.
The only part of the hotel I took time to enjoy besides the room was the Longbar. Longbar is Long. The bartenders were pretty cool and did some tricks with the glasses so that kept me entertained.
The biggest negative for me was the large gap between the floor and the bottom of the room door. It seemed too large and I didn’t exactly feel safe with it. I’m not sure if that’s across the entire hotel or just my room. Still it isn’t enough for me to write the place off. I’ll probably stay here again.

This review is only for the Alcohol Slushies outside of the hotel.
The Slushies were great. We enjoyed the drinks.
Can’t give it a five star. Our first day we spent $ 33 on 2 slushies. One in a plastic regular cup, and one in those fancy tall reusable cups. Our second day, we spent what we thought was $ 15 for a regular cup, somehow they charged me $ 18… I didnt ask for a receipt either and we had already tipped in cash. I didn’t see this $ 18 for one slushy on my account until the day I was leaving. Disappointed in how you charged customers.

This hotel is pretty crappy. We were put up here by an event so I won’t complain about free, but I would never pay to stay here.
We had a block of 6 rooms. One was on a separate floor. It took us about 30 minutes to get in an elevator and up to our room. Of the 5 elevators, only 2 were working.1 with an attendant pushing our floor for you.
Tell hotel in general smells of smoke. Worse than any other Casino around.
Staying on Freemont I expected it to be loud, but not THAT loud. We could hear everything. Due to the noise they gave 5 of the 6 rooms a $ 20 credit… all but ours. When we called they were like we’ll it’s expected. And they have all the other rooms hassle redeeming the credits.
My husband was out later than me and couldn’t get back in the room. To try not to wake me he called the front desk. They insisted I locked him out. Yeah, that didn’t happen. They let him in only after waking up other people to confirm his identity. We again had the issue with room when we came back in the afternoon. This time they can’t blame me using the deadbolt when I wasn’t even in the room. We had to call 4 times to get in and the security gourd could care less. He rest the door and sent us on our way.
Our air conditioning didn’t work. It we called yesterday and they said it needed time to warm up. Came back this afternoon after having it on full blast since 4pm yesterday and make make up and candy had melted. We called again and found out we needed the entire unit replaced.

Really really simple… the staff was nice, the room was beautiful and clean, and the Fremont Street Experience was right outside.
Had a really great stay for not a lot of money!
Nice job.

So this review is for just the hotel portion as this was the first time we stayed overnight on Fremont.
We had 4 in our group and when we booked, we reserved a 2 queen bed, non-​smoking room. When the other couple in our party arrived to check in, they were told that we had already checked-​in and that we are getting a king room with a pull-​out couch. Understandably confused, our friends wearily agreed that this arrangement would be fine.
When we met up with them later, they told us what the check-​in staff had said to which we stated that we hadn’t set foot on Fremont before we met up with them.
So after arriving in the room, we called downstairs to tell them that there was a mistake and we indeed requested a 2 queen bed room.
Instead of apologizing and admitting to the blunder, the hotel staff asked, «what do we want them to do about it?».
Well for starters, I guess if we are to be stuck with this room, some bed covers, sheets or pillows for the pull-​out couch would be a good start? *smh*
Whatever, we made do with it since we weren’t in the room for a cumulative of more than 5 hours that night.
Many reviewers will bring up the subject of the high noise level. I don’t know what time these people are going to bed, but when we rolled in at 4 am, we could not hear any noise from the Fremont Experience.
I still love the casino for the only one of two Sigma Derby being offered in the Las Vegas Strip and vicinity. The video poker machines paid a favorable $ 0.25 JoB and everyone in our group had a really lucky streak at the BJ tables (3:2 payout).
I wished we remembered our dealers’ name, she was cracking jokes left and right, so funny and sharp! We were here on a Saturday night (fight night) so I’m not sure if that’s what attributed to the $ 10 min, instead of $ 5. We weren’t complaining since we did so well.

You really do get what you pay for. Except when you pay for extras. I paid for a high floor so I could have a view. But my view was obstructed by the film coating that they used for the advertisement that runs up the length of the building. I paid for a view, I got black stuff.
The people who work here are very nice. Mostly. When house keeping helped themselves to all the cash I had in my room, it took me talking to 4 people before someone told me to talk to security. Security was great. I probably won’t get my money back, but at least they weren’t dismissive like the first couple people I spoke with.
The rooms are nice, except for the view. They have no odor at all. (Including that terrible room freshener smell so many hotels have.)

This is my favorite downtown Las Vegas hotel. It is right on The Freemont Experience, which means it is in the middle of all of the action.
The hotel is newly renovated, so the rooms have been upgraded from when it was the old Fitzgerald Hotel. If you look on Groupon or
you can find $ 30 room deals. The rooms are decent, but the rooms are not the reason I like the place. Again, I love the location.
The D has has The Long Bar inside the casino and they also have an outside bar with girls dancing on the bar. They have an American Coney Island, just like back in Detroit. There is also Andiamo’s Restaurant, which serves an excellent tomahawk ribeye.
If your planing on staying downtown and want to party on Freemont Street, then I would definitely check out The D.

Hate to be a Vegas snob but I’d never ever stay here. This review is based strictly on the casino portion. If you like a more low key casino p, this one is perfect. I enjoyed it because it’s small and that makes it easy to find my favorite slot machines it hour walking forever or waiting to play. Also, the waitresses come around with drinks more frequently because of how small it is.
They definitely tried to be fun by adding dancers who dance on the bar top but the dancers mostly look ready to go home and uninterested lol. Maybe they are instructed not to have too much fun? Who knows.

We liked it.
Nice rooms with modern baths.
Friendly, helpful, patient staff, speedy check in.
Fun casino. Clean and modernized.

Nice big, clean and well organized rooms for a brilliant value. I love Fremont street for the foot only traffic and free flowing alcohol!
The music and energy don’t stop at this casino and hotel. While the rooms are quiet the casino will not be. Winding down at a slot machine probably won’t happen so party until you drop!

This place markets itself as the new, hip place in downtown. It does seem rather hip, but that’s just cosmetic upgrades. Really, this is an old hotel that’s just not as good as many others in the area.
The wifi is incredibly slow! The pool is really crappy– not nearly as nice as it looks in the pics. Yet they still charge $ 22/​night for a resort fee. Well, this place is not a RESORT by any stretch of the imagination! If you have a lousy second-​rate pool and super slow wifi, then what exactly is the RESORT that you are charging the fee for?
On top of that, the air conditioner was REALLY loud, and there was super loud banging, like construction going on in a nearby room, in the morning. Not what I pay for when I rent a hotel room. And someone in one of the other rooms said they found a cockroach in their room.
They tried to make the place look nice, and it does, but it’s just smoke and mirrors. If you want a place that looks nice, stay here. If you want a good hotel, stay somewhere else.

Boi did we hang out here for hrs. We went to taste and sounds of soul. There were so many people. Plus we had about 10 people in our group. It was hard to stay together. So we went to the D. I think we got there about 5 p.m. and we didn’t leave till about 1 a.m. The bartenders were entertaining, and the Moscato was delish. We were there so long, we had to buss our own table! lol

Great room, great view. Easy parking and quick check in. I paid much more for rooms of less quality in the past at other hotels. This place is spotless and everyone is very friendly.
High speed wi-​fi is included with the resort fee and there is plenty of room to set up your computer on the large desk that includes a built in charging port for all your electronic gear. No searching for an outlet.

Get what you pay for. Elevators are incredibly slow! Give yourself at least 15 minutes. And bring a book while you wait.
Not sure why they charge a resort fee. The pool is unheated. Most of the lounge furniture (if you can get one of the five lounge chairs) is broken. No cushions.
Rooms were better than expected though shower was lukewarm.
Stay here if you’re on an extreme budget and nothing else is close in price. Otherwise, pay a couple extra bucks and stay somewhere nicer. I wish I had.

Pretty lackluster hotel. Looks new on the outside, but don’t let that fool you. Dated and clammy on the inside with nothing unique to offer. Rooms don’t even come equipped with a coffee pot.
Originally thought it was a Detroit hotel, however showed no signs of repping the city. If you’re looking for a nice, reasonably priced hotel please always stay at the Golden Nugget. It’s 2 feet away from the D and you will not regret it.
Also, make sure you’re out of the room at 12 noon, or else they will automatically charge you $ 28 and not tell you.

BAR REVIEW ONLY — NOT THE HOTEL ELEMENT
On Fremont Street, The D is pretty much ground zero for everything cool about this area from the perspective of an adult who enjoys partying. Outside, on weekend nights, you have the 3^rd Street stage (and other Fremont Street venues) with tribute bands playing (like Socal based Led Zepagain and Bonfire AC/​DC). Inside, you have one wild bar scene with a bevy of go-​go dancers and bartenders who juggle bottles and are quick to jump on the counter and pour a shot straight into your mouth (usually for a lady). Finally, if you can handle an extra large beer (both for consumption and navigation through the street scene), there’s a 32 ounce cup full of Modelo (or PBR) on tap to get your mojo in gear.

Well, you have to remember that your not on the strip so if your one like me that has only stayed at «fancy» hotels in the strip, one would think this place is just okay. To be honest, I would have to say this is one of the nicest hotels in downtown. The casino area might be small but it’s decent. The blackjack tables don’t give so don’t waste your money.
What’s cool is that the lobby opens right up to Fremont Street so your in the center of all the action. Drinks are okay, don’t go the bar in the casino, if you walk out and make a left there is a Patio Bar that makes awesome drinks at a good price.
The rooms are on the smaller side and older side. Although the lobby was remodeled– they didn’t put much care into upgrading the hotel rooms.
Also beware, elevator A sounds like it’s going to break but it’s just old.
Have fun!

We stayed at The D for 2 nights during the Life Is Beautiful music festival. It was very convenient & walking distance to all the downtown happenings, though the prices were jacked up for the festival ($ 250/​nt!)
The rooms at the D are decently nice and comfy. No frills, but no glaring grossness either — décor is modern, beds & pillows are fine, A/​C works but is really loud, bathroom was spacious. The hotel overall though, could use some love. The elevators are dreadfully slow, and the pool area is pretty depressing (tiny pool, broken plastic pool chairs, no umbrellas for shade). And like most hotels in Vegas, you have to walk through a stinky, smoky casino to get to the hotel portion. So, there’s that.
But, customer service was above average, and the rooms were actually really sound-​proof, so we slept well despite the hotel being packed with festival-​goers. The D is located in the «Fremont Street Experience», so you have to be okay with a lot of stimulation going to & from the hotel. Once in your room, it’s pretty chill.
Overall, a perfectly OK spot to stay for any downtown happenings. I’d like it better at about $ 150/​nt vs. $ 250 though!
