| - So I stayed here for one night this past weekend. I moved my reservation for the next evening only an hour after I checked in.
I got to the hotel and had a bellman get the bags out of the car, valeted the car and went in to check in. The bellman never gave us a ticket for our bags, nor did he count them at all. I was skeptical, but it's Fremont, not the Strip- so I went in to check into the hotel. Our bags were sitting on the valet cart unattended off to the side of the lobby. I took my camera bag with my $1500 camera off of it since I was nervous about it being left out in the open. Noone noticed...
Then, I checked in. I was on my way up to the room, following the bellman. While on our way into an elevator, a security guard starts chatting with the bellman and follows us into the elevator. On the entire ride up, they were ribbing each other about a young woman whom they were both talking about 'getting with'. There with my best friend, and both of us in our mid-twenties, this left us incredibly uncomfortable.
We got to the room.
I had booked a King Suite online, and was led into a tiny room with one bed, and barely three feet between the foot of the bed and the TV/dresser.
Obviously we had been put into the wrong room. The bellman suggested I call down to the front desk, so I did to get it sorted out.
During this phone call (about 30 seconds in) the bellman seems rther irritated and goes (and I quote) "I can't just stand around here all day waiting on you, what do you want me to do with all of this stuff?"
We took off the costly items, and sen him back down to the lobby while we waited for the desk agent to call us back (she said to wait there and she'd call the room back).
She called back and I could have a smoking suite that was open immediately, or wait for a non-smoking room. We could put out bags into th non-smoking room and then it would be cleaned asap.
We chose the non-smoking room. Put our bags down, that was all good.
Went to Magnolia's- the food was not great. We ate the appetizer, which was good, and when our meals came.... they just weren't. We had been staying on the strip the previous two nights. I live with a chef, and my friend lives in Los Angeles, so we may be picky eaters. we chalked it up to taste buds and left to go back up to our room.
Our room had been cleaned by that time. No sign of bed bugs. Good sized room, very big. Window overlooked Fremont street, even though it was covered by a large dome where they do the light shows now. starting to unpack, we realized that used washclothes (2) were still over the shower rod, 3 puddles of liquid in the shape of spills were between the dining table and the desk. Next to the bed, I don't even want to question the large sticky stain on the floor.
Overall: for $186 a night, the suite wasn't bad- but I will probably never stay there again.
