Wayback is in a very convenient location. They have a wonderful breakfast. The only down sides are the noise from the strip and parking is hard to navigate. There was live entertainment by the pool. It is a nice place to stay.

Nice weekday stay

Check-in was a breeze, staff was attentive and friendly, we never had any issues parking, the room was large, the bed and pillows were very comfortable, the bathroom sink had a few hairs on it and the bathroom floors had a couple dirty spots, but everything else appeared clean.

The property was nice, but when we got in the room, you definitely see all the imperfections, cracks, water spots on the ceiling, and not to mention the loud ice machine right outside our door, which was closed in with the ice machine. The pool area was very nice, it seemed more like an adult retreat instead of a family retreat in my opinion.
