My review is completely based on my experience using No Cover Nightclubs guestlist for last weekend (7/22) for Club Hakassan, tiesto was the DJ. My review is based on my experience for this particular night, for this particular club, where this particular DJ was playing.
I before signing up for the guest list, I did my research and found rave reviews. People have saved money and have had a nice time using the guestlist. It just did not work out for me, cosnidering the pain I ha dto go through.
The day I planned, 7/22 at club Hakassan, MGM grand, the tickets were at pre sale Gen Admin for $20 for female and $35 for male. When I reached the hotel, I enquired with the Hakassan reservation, and they said that no cover might not work as in free admission, but we will get discounted admission. I was happy, Yay! Saving money. The happiness did not last for long.
Be informed that every minute in Vegas counts especially if you are there for 2-3 days. When I arrived at around 10.45 to the club, we were directed to the guestlist queue, which was insanely long. The pre sale gen admin queue was long too, but nothing like the guestlist. We thought tok, big deal, we are saving mony, lets just stand in queue. After 2 hours we reached the end of the queue (by now time was around 1AM!) only to be given a slip that said we have to pay $50 for a couple entry and for that we have to get into another crazy queue. It looked like we will spend another hour in this queue before we finally get entry, and that too at just $5 less than the Gen Admin price. We left the queue and spent our time elsewhere.
The GEN admin queue moved much faster and everyone seemed to have got in within less than an hour. What amazed me is, they just asked me for my ID, and gave me a slip for $50, without checking any guestlist.
Now you are free to make your decision on what matters to you more, better planning in advance, paying $5 extra, or just standing in queue for 3 hours to save 5 bucks in Vegas. Again, this was my experience with no cover nightclubs, different people might have different experience. I will surely not do this next time!
