i specifically asked for a non-smoking room and when i got there they put me in a smoking room saying they didn't have anything else available. make sure to double lock your door because housekeeping just barges in without knocking. don't believe the front desk people when they say they are taking some unjustified charges off your account. those charges... more

My girlfriend's son had to go to the emergency room in Vegas because of infections from bedbug bites while staying at the California last year. And now the Cal is being sued for the second time in two years for bedbug bites. Look REAL good around your sheets and crevises around the headboard in ANY hotel before jumping in. Good... more

OK room-- clean, good bed and pillows, enough space, reasonable service. I doubt that many come to do some work here, but if you happen to want to use the internet while enjoying the comforts of this hotel, you will be disappointed. There is the option of signing up for wireless service at $10/day. The service is so slow that... more

I booked for 6 nights and 3 nights on the other booking. Later when I called to confirm the bookings with the hotel (a week before staying there)... more

I just came back from my 5th Vegas trip...stayed at the Cal for the 2nd time. I work in the hospitality indsutry myself so I tend to watch employees' attitude. I was so surprised! 1) When I called before to confirm my room, both the operator and front desk were not very pleasant. 2) Bellman were watching a basketball game... more

I was somewhat uncertain after reading the reviews that you needed to be either Hawaiian or Asian to stay here; however, this was my best trip to Las Vegas (go 3 times yearly). I'm clearly neither (red hair, green eyes). I loved this hotel, the staff, restaurants and the people I talked with there. It's a fun, very clean place... more
