| - JUST SAY NO! Where do I start? Had to stay here for a conference June 29-July 3rd. Although I was impressed with the size of my room, here's the scoop:
1. LVH charges you for EVERYTHING!
-$20.00/per day Resort Fee (definitely NOT worth it!)
-$13.99/ per day to use Wifi (Really?!?!)
-$1.00/ per local call made from the hotel room phone
-$4.00 charge for using in-room coffee & maker
-$4.00 charge for using in-room bottled water
-$3.00 charge at the concierge if you would like to print out your boarding pass
*However, you DO get an $8-$10 credit per day for each day you call the front desk to forego housekeeping services as a reward for "Going Green".
I fear the future may involve charging their guests for each toilet flush as well....laugh now, but wait for it! o_O
2. Hotel is DIRTY, dingy and dated (think cheap 80's brass & glass decor and orange/yellow 70's furniture). Walls in hotel room stained, hair from previous occupant left in the bathroom and tub, pool and lounge area disorganized and sketchy looking. Wallpaper peeling off walls in the Conference Center, mismatched and dated furniture, HIDEOUS carpet, yellow & dingy sparkly things (from the smoke) hanging over the casino, dusty and dirty throughout. Everything including the "non-smoking" rooms smelled like OLD STALE smoke.
3. In room T.V. is a joke -they charge for everything and what few "free channels" they offer are pathetic!
4. RUDE staff everywhere -not just staff who work at the hotel, but I had the misfortune of witnessing staff bickering and fighting with each other IN FRONT of customers at both the Paradise Cafe (waitress upset with hostess for not seating diners in her section and came up demanding, "Can I get a party? You seatin' people, an' I been off break for 15 minutes and I ain't got no party yet. Can I get a party?!" Then waitress complains to other waitress about hostess, and hostess gossips to other hostess about that waitress); cranky staff at Blyss boutique (cashier chewed out her coworker in front of me for 5-full minutes because her coworker was late to work and the cashier was going to miss her bus...)
5. Restaurants:
*****TJ's Steakhouse -Delicious! Pricy, but worth it. Definitely the only "good meal" I had while staying here! :)
***Benihana's -Overpriced and the food was bland and surprisingly boring.
*Paradise Cafe -OMG, this was the only place open most of the time, so one of my only options to eat. Definitely NOT good! Greasy breakfast, over dressed Thai Chicken salad, and major egos and attitudes between all of the waitstaff. They also automatically charge 18% gratuity to all orders "To Go", so make sure you keep that in mind before you start to add an extra tip on the tip line. If you aren't paying attention, you could end up overtipping them (and the service is definitely not worth it!)
Overall, I pretty much hated the entire experience and would not ever come here again for a conference!
