Freemont Accommodations

Hi All,

We're heading out to Vegas next week and will take advantage of some free rooms at various casinos. I know the Freemont has been there since the beginning of time, but wondering about their room accommodations. Since the casino itself is horribly dated, should I expect this of the rooms too? Should I "be afraid, be very afraid"? Thoughts? How about the Fiesta Rancho? I usually stay at the Strat and have found their casino suites quite nice.

Thanks for any helpful input.

The Freemont is our primary Vegas casino. The rooms are BASIC. Nothing fancy but a clean place to sleep.

Remember ..... life is only what you make it. Never settle for second best.

At least at the Fremont you can take the shuttle to Sam's Town as well as Fashion Mall. I haven't been to the Fremont in 100 years, and never stayed there. But since it's a Boyd property, I'd expect it to be clean and comfy.

Rooms at the Fremont remind me of typical European rooms. They are very small and basic (240sq. ft. compared to the 350-450 found at most Strip properties). The bathroom is a bit cramped and you may find that you have a little negotiating to do in order to close the bathroom door.
It may be a bit of an adjustment if you are accustomed to suites (technically 600sq. ft. or larger).

Aside from that it is fine. The casino and staff are pleasant.
It is a good location if you want to be downtown. I like their buffet and Tony Roma's for the price.

Don't worry about the Fremont being "dated". They have recently done quite a bit of remodeling with many new color schemes in the casino and in the bars. The place looks pretty nice imho. Good luck. Billfrompa.

I just got back from a Vegas trip last week and stayed at the Freemont for two nights. It's in a great location downtown, the gambling and food is very good there, the rooms are clean and the staff friendly. However, the rooms are VERY small for me (and I was there myself), and they did not have internet access (which I needed for work). Even though I enjoy playing there I won't stay there again.

I stayed there for a night in December. It was good for a night. I was
about as far away from FSE as you could get (top floor, far corner) and I
could still hear FSE clearly. I did like the location.
