We chose to stay at the Ahern for the price and the ratings. We were extremely surprised by how beautifully appointed this hotel is for the price! We were fortunate enough to somehow be assigned to a corner room with expensive views to the west, as well as the south! We could get used to this! This might not be the case with every suite, but we had a loveset AND a comfortable lounge chair. Our king size bed was very comfortable! We are not gamblers or smokers, so it was an added perk for us that we did not have to walk through a loud, smoky casino to get to the front desk. Also, we were able to find a parking spot in their garage that was convenient to ann entrance to the convention center, opposite the hotel. Only one of us took advantage of the complimentary breakfast. We had to wait a little longer than we thought we should have to for someone take the order but the food was forthcoming shortly afterwards. It was very filling, well plated and delicious. The Ahern is definitely on the top of our list of places to stay in Las Vegas!
