My family had been traveling to Las Vegas and needed a nice clean room. We found Sands Inn. We loved staying here. It felt like the best sleep in the world.
they seem up kept... the lady at the front is very nice.
Came in on a late September evening tired and exhausted from 14 hours of driving. Debbie Persinger was the desk clerk at the time. She set me up in their best room—spaceful, wonderful smell of fall, and peaceful—at a great price. It was the best sleep I had throughout my trip. Thank you, and a special thanks to Debbie for being such a great hostess!
This motel has been in my old hometown since I was a kid, it has gone through lots of renovations and they are still improving on things each time we have visited! It is located on the last exit of town, with several gas stations, coffee shop, restaurants and a liquor store all with in walking distance! The owner of the Inn also the owns the fun bar Buddha Bob’s across the street! Great bartender service, shuffle board, pool tables, touch tunes jukebox and an amazing food truck in the parking lot with a wide variety of Chinese/American cuisine, great food and huge portions! The Sands Inn rooms have new beds, plenty of hot water, fridge microwave, air conditioning and a quiet clean place to get a restful nights sleep! Management is very responsive and the hotel staff refreshed our rooms each morning of our stay! We travel from Utah every summer with our car club to attend a local car show and we rent out 11 rooms and no one had any complaints or concerns! We will continue to support this local small business and we hope to see it continue to thrive and grow!!
Currently being remodeled, but the finished rooms are clean with very nice beds.
