The vibes here are very laid back and really chill. We went around 6 before dinner and it was busy but not overly crowded. The drinks were the best we’ve had in Vegas. Loved the decor and the way to enter this speakeasy.

This was my first time staying off Strip and I have no intention of staying anywhere but downtown again after my stay at El Cortez. I loved the hotel. The casino has a great vibe and loved the older music played. I really enjoyed the vintage look they've maintained. All staff I interacted with were great and I enjoyed the fact that the property was smaller enough that you saw the same employees on multiple days instead of just a sea of faces on the mega resorts. I stayed in the Cabana Suites across the street and having to have a wristband to access the building made me feel more secure as a female staying in a room by myself. No much in the way of dining on site, but due to its great location in Fremont East we got to sample from several of the restaurants/pubs surrounding the hotel, and were not disappointed. While I would still visit the Strip on future trips, I enjoyed the chill vibe of staying downtown so much that I will definitely be booking at the El Cortex for my next stay.
