We stayed at Lake Mead Inn for our 25th Anniversary trip. It was the perfect place for us. It's an older mom-and-pop type place so if you expect chocolates on the pillows and room service, this is not your place. But if you like a beautiful view, the stunning hills surrounding Las Vegas, a simple but clean room, this place is for you. We parked right outside of our room, which we actually liked. The restaurant on site is supposedly good but we were in too much of a hurry each day to take the time for a sit-down meal. Lake Mead Inn is 10 minutes from Hoover Dam and 20 or so minutes from Las Vegas, so perfectly situated. We have used outdoor hottubs in the winter before, but the hot tubs around here all close for the winter because lifeguards are required. The only bummer was the jacuzzi in the room was great, but after my bath I realized there were little particles that sprayed from the jets. They need the jets professionally serviced and cleaned because though housekeeping had cleaned the jacuzzi very well, they can't control residue in the jets and that was a bummer. We still rate the place 5 stars because it was clean, quiet, scenic, staff was friendly, and it had a refrigerator and microwave, which many in Las Vegas don't have. Lake Mead Inn is where we will stay if we ever make it back to the beautiful state of Nevada again!
