Aviation Inn

Is there a way to give negative stars? How could a trip to Vegas ever be bad? Well let me tell ya! It wasn’t the trip itself, it wasn’t even the rude drivers, it was the hotel we were supposed to stay at. The Aviary Inn in Las Vegas is by far THE WORST hotel/​motel I have EVER been to. We had made our reservations to stay there in November and had pre-​paid $ 850 for the whole stay through Expedia. Everything should be good, right? WRONG! My friend had a gut feeling and checked to make sure our reservation was all set the day before. Well it wasn’t, they put our reservation on a pending list, saying that their prices were raised last minute and that we owe another $ 350 plus a $ 100 deposit. The deposit is understandable, but what the heck with that $ 350? We already paid for our stay MONTHS ago and now they want more money that we don’t have? No. So from 6:00pm Wednesday-4:00pm Thursday, we were having a phone war with the hotel and Expedia, with the hotel telling us to just pay it and that Expedia would reimburse us in the end. With how many clients they deal with, we weren’t going to see that money again, so we refused to pay something that we were never supposed to pay. Finally, at 4:00pm like I said, things seemed fixed. I mean, who takes almost 24 hours to fix such a stupid problem? All the hotel needed was a note from the people with Expedia to waive the amount… but I guess nobody knew how to do their jobs. So we get to the hotel at 5:00pm, wanting to have been there at 3:00pm so we could be on time for our plans, but a little late isn’t too bad… except the person running the front desk left a note saying that they’ll be gone from 5:00pm-6:30pm…okay, another irritating thing that throws off our plans more, but we’re still willing to try this place. 7:20 rolls around and the lady finally gets there. We request maybe a waive on part of our bill or deposit for wasting our day waiting for this stupid hotel, but no, we get a «well you could have cancelled» from the wonderful front desk woman (did I also mention she’s the manager?) which would mean a $ 850 loss for my friend and I, to which we get another wonderful response of «well yeah, that’s how it works» with a smirk on her face. We’re still trying to just go with things so we can enjoy our time, but the second we entered our room, we were blasted with the smell of cigarette smoke and urine (in our non-​smoking and apparently newly remodeled room). There were dead bugs all over the carpet, we tripped over the carpet walking in because it wasn’t even like nailed down, you could just pick it up! And the bathroom had burn marks all over it from crackheads and mold. Oh, and did I mention a strange brown mark on the carpet? It looked suspiciously like fecal matter, but I wasn’t about to run forensics on it to find out. It was DISGUSTING. So another 2 hours trying to just cancel the stay and get a refund, we finally were able to get somewhere with Expedia while we were in tears because we had no other options. The manager refused to help us at all, give us any breaks, or hear what we had to say about the disgusting room. She had the personal skills of a feral cat and hopefully the owners of the establishment care more than her, or that place is going to get shut down really quickly.
So 9:00pm, we basically have nowhere to sleep, and my friends wonderful friends come to the rescue and tell us that we can bunk with them in their very nice hotel room (it has a full kitchen and bedroom!). Needless to say, I hope nobody goes to the Aviary Inn in Las Vegas, Nevada. Unless you’re looking to get an STD from your bedsheets or get eaten alive by bugs or drown in the stem he of urine and feces, STAY AWAY

I give it a 0. The staff was rude and just horrible, not accommodating at all. We’d been on the road for 12 hrs and just wanted to relax. They gave us a smoking room and when I asked if they would switch us to non smoking the rude lady at the desk said «well that’s what you ordered online sir» They ended up moving us to another room which was so disheveled it looked as though it had been robbed. They moved a dresser to hide the door leading to the next room I guess to hide the fact that the rooms connected.
I have to say that they have a nice website and the hotel looks appealing online. We thought it was actually very near the base (it isn’t) and we thought that they would do up the aviation theme. Very disappointed. Do not stay here. Absolutely the worst hotel I’ve ever been to.

Aviation Inn is a convenient motel in North Las Vegas. one of the best motels in the area. The front desk lady, Katherine Franklin was very helpful, informative and kind the 2 times my wife and I stayed at aviation Inn.

I am not the person who stayed there but I sent a customer of mine down to them with an online quote and they not only honored the quote but worked with him on how they took the payment. You all were his and his son’s saving grace. They were very happy with the service and the room! Thank you for taking care of them!

Price efficient any time of year. You get a bed with sheets. Pretty sure bed bugs are involved. A/​C unit pounded loudly all night. Room was 100 degrees when we came in and took two hours to cool the small room. Could probably do much better on a budget, to be honest.

Had a real good experience last night. First thing was that I came in @ 9:00 am to ask if we could check in by 2:00 pm (Check– in is @ 3:00 pm). The lady behind the counter was friendly and engaging and offered to let us check in now, 6 hrs early, being its a weekday and all. That was a huge deal because we just drove into town and was looking for something to do with ourselves. The room was clean and looked just like the pictures on their web site. Being a maintenance mechanic I look at the condition of a facility, and I found my room was very well maintained. The rooms were clean and had good air conditioning and was everything that they advertised. I’d come back.
As for the other reviews, I consider this. It cost me $ 42.00. For that price, all I expect is a clean room and helpful staff, and that is what I got. No I do not work there.

This place is horrible. I literally arrived, opened the door, immediately pointed at the first thing i seen which was some spec on the bed and I walk up to it to find out its a bed bug I was like wow nice. And then they tried juicing me for a hundred dollars because it smelled like Marijuana when there were pure kids at the hotel that night coming from who knows where for that electric daisy carnival. I felt discriminated because they assumed it was me that was smoking. And I was changing when the house keeper pokes her head in the room so my privacy was also invaded. Regardless don’t go there especially if you’re gonna smoke weed. I had a king sized bed with no sheets and no pillows. Just bed bugs. They made my first time in Vegas extra lame. Vegas is the Devils playground by the way. I’ll probably never go back. The heat was nice though.

You get what you paid for; it’s cheap. They didn’t have any towels… Said they were waiting for their linen service to deliver and asked if we could use «hand towels» instead. The shower water was not regulated at all! It would go from ice cold to scolding hot within seconds. They didn’t have any kitchen utensils either… One small frying pan, that was it. I assumed purchasing the kitchenette, they would provide some things; Not so much. The only nice thing was the customer service. They apologized immensely for their screw ups.

We’ve been camping all week and booked this as our returning to California hotel. When I booked through
, the photos were nicer than it seems.
We were pretty disappointed that when we came it was merely a hole in the wall motel. The lobby was under construction and sad looking. They also don’t have a restroom in the lobby, so you would need to wait until you get inside your room.
In bad timing, I was in need of a restroom badly. After receiving my key, I went to my room and tried to open the door. I tried 20 times to open it and it didn’t work. I went back to the receptionist and she had told me I might have gotten a room which the door handle needed to open up. I think that would have been useful information in the beginning. That was a motel FAIL.
When we got in, the room floors were stained with red and it was hot. It took some time to cool down the room too. Funny how photos of the outside of the building weren’t shown on the
account because we would have never booked the motel.
After some thought, we thought this location (North Las Vegas) was also too far from the strip (20-​minute drive), and we would have been better spending $ 30 more dollars on a nicer place, which was closer to where we wanted to go. We highly suggest NOT booking this place.

This place is disgusting and smells. The carpet is stained beyond belief. The sheets don’t even reach the bottom of the bed. Of course it’s very cheap, but it should be. People are living here permanently. The shower drains very slow. Last time we ever stay here.

My first review ever and I’d hate to write such bad reviews but our stay still left me very frustrated thus, avoid this place at all cost! I’m never coming back. It was a horrible experience. Perhaps it was the bad timing because CES convention was in town but simple precautions could have avoid so many bad businesses for them. I booked our reservation online same day at 1pm to find out that their booking was supposedly «closed» at 12pm when we arrived. There was absolutely no more room. It was 10pm. All the hotels were full. The manager tried his best to accommodate with calling around to find us a place to stay but felt like it was all for show what he was doing. Some BS. Anyways, we left to try to find another place ourselves with no luck, only to get a call back from Aviation saying that there is now a room. Wtf. Desperate, we settle for their smoking room for the same price, 93 $ +200 $ cash deposit! (we originally had requested for nonsmoking). The room was horrendous. Dirty carpet. Trash left on bed. The shower head doesn’t even work. Bed was uncomfortable, they sink into the middle. And did I already mention that it stinks of smoke? Oh yeah. When it rains, it pours. Anyways, long story short. DO. NOT. STAY. HERE. I do not understand how they got such good reviews on Google

When we came to visit our cousin that serve at the military base near by, we needed a place to sleep. The first thing we saw when we look for hotel/​motel was the blue sign of aviation inn so we went inside and the ladies at the front desk were very welcoming and nice. The prices for the rooms were cheaper than what we expected and the rooms were so clean and smelled good. We sleep in hotels/​motels often but this one has really surprised us. Everything Wes new and renovated and nicer than a lot of more expensive hotels.
We also thank the staff and especially Lisa that was so nice and gave direction.
