Boyd Gaming Summerlin hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada

I had a business conference on the NW side of Vegas. The area around the hotel is beautiful, I had a golf course view. This seems to be a really nice side of Vegas, there's newer development and a really neat shopping area right across the street. The service was awesome at this hotel. I was impressed when I checked in. Later in my stay, I had left a credit card wallet a business-computer kiosk upstairs and after making a report, the security staff reviewed tape and was able to trace that another hotel guest had picked it up and turned it in to an employee and it was recovered without incident. I found everyone to be very - very pleasant. From the front desk to security to servers/attendants. This isn't a "hot spot" casino. However it's comfortable, friendly and a nice place to stay. I will agree with other reviewers that smoke was present in the casino, but it wasn't a deterrent as far as getting inside the hotel and up to my room. It's a casino, if they allow smoking, people are going to smoke. I do wish the hotel had a tuck away coffee bar or restaurant that wasn't open to the casino floor. I arrived super early and was hoping to settle into a coffee shop to work. They have a shop, it's just next to gambling and not closed off. Wouldn't stop me from staying here again though, just a suggestion. If you are looking for an "off strip" option, this is it!
