I would never have stayed here when it was the Sands. Saw that there was aremodel and new owners so thought I would give it a try. Loved that the parking lot was so close to the elevators and easy to get to my room. The first time I had wicked marijuana smell permeating my room and the manage moved me to a better room. It was bigger and so nice. The second time my husband and I stayed and it was amazing. I loved the easy accessibility to the rooms and the cost. The front desk was very helpful and friendly-exactly what I would expect from Reno. I(we) will definitely make this our go to hotel.

Thanks Marzena for going above and beyond!What a wonderful human being and works so hard! Hope to come back some time and leave a big tip because you and Christina the most beautiful and funniest dealer of all time make me laugh and leave feeling so happy!

So the room was great - modern, clean, nicely updated. We had our son with us, who was disappointed that there wasn't an arcade anywhere on the property. The room was comfortable, but it was very noisy when other rooms would close their doors *slam!*, so that was a challenge for nap time. But hey, it's a casino, so I didn't expect perfect quiet.

The J Resort gets it right in every aspect. Convenient parking or valet if desired is notable as is location near heart of Reno with quick access to interstate. The rooms are spacious and well equipped for comfort with up to date bathrooms with large walk in showers. There are multiple dining options from sumptuous Buffett to high end steakhouse or grab and go. The staff is plentiful and eager to please. J gets it right!

This hotel and casino are the renovated result of the old Sands Hotel. Looks a lot better, very modern and clean. Lots of slot machines plus a few table games with low amounts for betting. Not very busy, so I think they are still seeking their crowd.
