| - Found out about Bluegreen from Bass Pro where we were offered a two-night stay at their Las Vegas location for $150. We received a $25 Bass Pro gift card when we signed up and were promised $100-$125 (depending on how quickly you book the trip, etc.) worth of additional Bass Pro gift cards simply to attend their 2-hour "no pressure" high pressure sales pitch for their "vacation homes"....timeshare. Ok, fine. We thought we knew what we signed up for...until we got there. I read a few reviews unfortunately after we booked the trip to ask for an "A-room" upon our arrival, so of course we did but they were allegedly completely booked, so that was not possible. Instead, we got stuck in a tiny cramped B-room with a full size bed (we were promised a king size and we complained about this at a later time to which we were met with, "wow, I can't believe that" from our pushy sales woman who of course did nothing to resolve our concerns). The room overlooked a parking lot of the "resort" and some shady slum area behind the MGM Grand - don't walk back from the strip unless you want to feel like you might get mugged. We also found dark hairs on the comforter in the room and underneath the pillow case on the pillow! Again, all of this was expressed to the lower level staff (who all seemed very nice), but yet no one offered to have a manager speak with us or to resolve the problem in any way. We were so disgusted with the room and the unsavory people that were staying at this place (someone mentioned videotaping hookers in the elevator on our way up to our room at one point) that we left after one night and the ridiculous seminar we had to sit through, or else we would be charged additional money, and stayed at the Cosmopolitan. We would rather stay at a place that cost $250 dollars more than feel unsafe in a dirty Bluegreen hotel room that we already paid for. Now what does that tell you? We did receive the $100 additional Bass Pro gift cards we were promised, but that in no way made this stay acceptable.
Consider yourself lucky if you see this review now and stay away before you even think about staying here.
