Mission Tejas State Park Tours and Activities

The Orleans is the perfect budget hotel/resort. Best bang for your buck I think. But with that comes drawbacks of course. I had lights in my room that didn’t work, my sink didn’t drain lol when I called room service, they said I could order but I would have to come down and pick up the food. Never heard that before in my life. However, I was pleasantly surprised at all the renovations they were doing. Prior, it wasn’t El Cortez level of dingy, but it was dingy. Now they have a bunch of modern stylings (in the room) and it made it feel like a real hotel aside from the lack of functioning lights and sink. I personally enjoy mid level eateries so if you’re not a fine diner this is the place to be. All their restaurants are only slightly over priced, which in Vegas, is a win! The food court is standard b tier mall food. (Fuddruckers, Sbarro, Baskin Robins, Subway) All which I like so no qualms there, Restaurant wise they have a few different options with their premier one Birch Alder always closed lol Ballywick for burgers, Ondori for mid level Japanese/Chinese food, all reasonably priced. The true saving grace of the Orleans is not how it looks or what there is to eat, it’s the fact they have some of the cheapest tables in all of Vegas and have arguably the best gambling crowd in the city! So many friendly locals who enjoy the off strip pricing make the gambling atmosphere pleasurable and a fun way to spend several hours in a day on their casino floor. I’ll be back!

Service, staff and amenities were top notch.

Lack of food options keeps this from being a near perfect review. They have a chophouse sign but it’s not operating, leaving one place for bar food. Awesome bathrooms even in the std room though and staff was pretty good. Another thing was a sign saying check in is on first floor but it’s not.
