| - I'm not sure this place needs a 986th review, but I hope to bring some attention to a pseudo-scam this hotel and many others in Las Vegas partake in.
The Resort Fee
I'm not sure how much longer this will be legal but for now, TI thinks it's ok to advertise a price for booking, and then when you check in, say you owe them $25 extra a night as a "resort fee". They say it's a great deal, you get free local calls, a newspaper, a 2 for 1 drink coupon, and you can print your boarding passes free in the lobby. This charge is NOT optional, even if you don't use what they force on you.
It's seriously the bait and switch scam. If TI wants $25 extra a night, it needs to add it to the base rate that is ADVERTISED.
The only reason I'm not rating TI a 1-star is because they are not the only place in Vegas that does this, but they are one of the most expensive.
Other strikes are: The bars are overpriced and lacking in fun. Restaurants are twice as much as an off-strip option. The pool is a little small.
