| - It is unfortunate that I cannot demerit this establishment anything less than one star. That is the treatment we received last night from the management and staff, and that is what this place basically is. Low class in hospitality and customer service, disgraceful and and embarrassment not only Fremont, but to the city of Las Vegas in general.
We chose to celebrate downtown for a friends birthday, and Commonwealth was the only and biggest mistake of the night. We had a 4 guy, 5 girl ratio, and like most Vegas establishments, especially on a holiday weekend, we as gentlemen knew that ladies were free and that we would have to pay. This was not a problem. The issue arose after we tried gaining access to the terrace, and paid additional $20 for a wristband and two drink tickets. We had no problem paying this also, as gentlemen of Las Vegas we knew what to expect. However, every woman we were with got a stamp to gain access to the terrace for free... Except one of our girlfriends.
When trying to understand why the bar manager was discriminating against a woman for being overweight, he stood there uselessly reaffirming their bad judgement and made it clear that they only want stereotypical type A women and anything outside of that is required to pay $20 dollars at the bar.
I was astonished to not only hear the words this jerk was saying, but baffled because of all the years that I have lived here in Las Vegas (24 to be exact) and going out to multitudes of places, I have never had a woman I was with singled out in such a disrespectful and demeaning way. Body shaming patrons who pay good money to have a good time, and this is the reward? I didn't even request a refund, nor did any of the other men who joined us that night. We all left as a collective group immediately after the 20 minute verbal altercation. I returned later that evening to ask for the name of the manager who treated us so poorly. The coward either didn't know his own name, or didn't have enough courage to face the ramifications of his actions. What an embarrassment!
This management and how they choose to condone this behavior is the exact reason why Las Vegas has such a bad reputation. I will never spend a dime or any of my time ever again at this establishment, and I will not only discourage anyone that I know from coming here, but I will most definitely be telling the many people I come into contact with on a daily basis (I work in hospitality at a casino, as well as retail) just how much of a joke this place is.
Do not support a place that doesn't support people. Especially when we are the people putting money into your undeserving and unappreciative little pockets.
"Carol, get your shit together!"
