Negative Reviews
negative:
Uncomfortable pillows.
For some guests, the pillows were a tad too hard. This is highly subjective, but may be a point of constructive feedback for Gold Dust West as it moves forward with bedding choices. The wonderful mattresses and blankets make up for this drawback, however.
negative:
Cigarette smoke travels.
The smoke from the casino often reaches guest rooms and causes both headaches and odors, making it one of the least attractive features of the entire property. If you're near the casino side of the building, be prepared to keep your windows shut throughout your stay.
negative:
Inadequate soundproofing.
Gold Dust West is generally able to keep the noise levels at a tolerable setting, especially during the evening hours, but the walls are typically too thin to keep out all of the hotel's noise. Guest conversations or television sounds can easily travel from one room to the next.
