5 Sketchiest Places to Stay on Las Vegas Strip
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2021
- Looking for the cheapest room to stay in on your Las Vegas vacation? Many people like to save money on vacation to get the best bang for their buck. However, there can be a point where being cheap can go too far, particularly when it comes to how you choose what hotel or motel you will be staying at. This video is about some of the worst reviewed hotels and motels on the Las Vegas strip. Many of these places have bad reviews for things like dirty rooms, hair in the shower, stains on the carpet, bed bugs, cockroaches, terrible customer service, etc. Aside from possibly having roaches sleeping with you at night, some people mention that they feel the places are more dangerous to stay at than other properties, making them feel unsafe about the level of crime.
Las Vegas does have some of the best hotels in the world. World class rooms, suites, spas, pools, shopping, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, strip clubs, shows, free things to do, hiking Red Rock, Mount Charleston, Hoover Dam, and the list goes on. Although opinions do vary, some places are generally considered better to stay at than others.

The guy and his girlfriend had "cockroaches crawling on them twice" but they had an "enjoyable gift shop". That has to be the most glass half full guy ever!
To be fair that is genuine feedback 😂. You ever pull in to a super sketch rest stop while on a road trip in an area unfamiliar to you because you have to pee? I have pulled in to places that looked like horror movie sets and had that one-toothed man lurking by the parking lot and all… but man that fuckin bathroom inside was in tip top shape !
The fact that this man has not been sued and forced to take down this video kind of speaks to the fact that he's telling the truth!

The problem I've had w any cheap motel anywhere is not the motel itself, but the kind of people who stay there.
Hey !!!! I use to travel for a living as a portrait photographer doing dept stores. My companies gave me a perdium for lodging and food. My philosophy was to sleep cheap and eat good . I discovered that people who live in cheap motels are very friendly. I usually wound up sitting out in the parking lot drinking beer and cooking barbecue. I had some great times in cheap motels.
@@sgtprestonoftheyukon2423 yah...when I was a kid & traveled w my parents we stayed at Motel 6s all across America & had few problems; none of any real consequences. Maybe times have changed? Or...it might vary according to location. For instance, I've stayed at Motel 6 & Super 8 up in Oregon & found them ok. But Los Angeles, Las Vegas & a few other places like that? NO way!
@@DanaDane559
I now work as a security patrol officer. There's a motel 6 in ft worth that I've been run off from 3 times. The clerks were fronting rooms to drug dealers under phoney names. They got mad at me because I was running off all their customers. Not all management is like that . Most motels back me up . But back when I was traveling I never saw any correlation between quality and price . Some of the cheapest motels I stayed at were the nicest. And some of the most expensive motel's were the worst. The price of the motel is determined by 3 things LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION.
Aren’t you admittedly the “type of person” who stays at cheap hotels?
@@himynameisray3058
he should never stay at any motel that would let someone like him in .🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This brought back memories! My late wife always wanted the bargain joint so she found one on the south Vegas strip. Checked in. Noticed bulldozer in the parking lot. Went to hang clothes...no hangers. Desk could only locate 2. Went for ice...found plumbing connections where the machine used to be. Tried to shower...no shower head. Desk had none. Finally desk lady said sorry, the joint's been pretty well stripped since it's getting dozed 5 minutes after you check out tomorrow! And it was! The dozer guy was starting as we pulled out! LOL
thats hilarious! I'm sorry about your wife, sir
@@RoIIingStoned Thank you! Much appreciated. We had 34 years.
My wife and I stayed at a hotel right near Venice Beach, and we had a great time on Sunday we decided we wanted to stay one more day. They had an awesome free full breakfast, so we went to eat and the manager came to us as we ate and let us know that they will be emptying the building to wire and detonate,, to build a brand new hotel and stuff there. He gave us free bathrobes and a whole bunch of stuff because obviously we were the ONLY people who had no idea.
When breakfast ended they took EVERYTHING, the plates, tablecloths, and packed them. The bartender made us 2 very strong bloody marys for the start.
That’s amazing maybe your wife Rest In Peace 🙏🏼
@@jcfilmz509 Thank you! She had a 13 year struggle and was finally ready to rest.
Jacob, as a Las Vegas local, thank you for exposing these disgusting, filthy properties which should have their certificate of occupancy permits revoked by the city. That would render them unable to generate revenue, making fire sales the only option.
The major strip resorts should demand the city take action against these worthless properties. They are a black eye for Las Vegas and have no business operating within the Las Vegas Strip Corridor.
Hey
America free enterprise?😂
@andresmadrid5017 not at the expense of public health would be the response here
Lol, have you ever been to downtown Los Angeles? Yeah…
Hubby "surprised" me with a last minute trip to Vegas years ago. During some Nascar-type weekend. EVERYTHING was booked solid and we ended up at the US Motel. Blood spatters on the wall, shit-freckled toilet, filthy wet threadbare carpet, toenails under chair and duct tape everywhere. For $99! Slept in our Saturn instead. Needless to say he doesn't surprise me with trips anymore!
The worst part - it was $99. I wonder how often these slimy motels are inspected?
Saturn motors still exist? 😂
@@robertk8452 This was well over 20 years ago. Neither Saturn Motors nor the U. S. Motel exists anymore but the emotional damage remains LOL.
Damn we stayed at the Luxor for $26 and then MGM for 47. You have to go when there’s no events and they are desperate to fill the rooms.
@@mizravenkustoms I tried to tell him..
Travel Lodge on the north end is like the Twilight Zone. It is unbelievable the amount of BS that happens around there. By the way, I was in that Panda Express, south of Mandalay Bay, when a guy trying to rob the place realized he forgot his gun.
🤣🤣🤣
Why would you eat at pandas in Vegas ?
@@randymoran67 Panda has disgusting food -- so many great restaurants to choose from.
LOL
@@randymoran67 it’s the best drunk food after walking out of the pool parties nearby lol
One ‘cheap’ place that is GREAT is Ellis Island Casino restaurant. The single best steak deal in Vegas-ask locals, they will tell you!
YES you nailed it! Hidden gem! Also good calzones, pizza, and draft beer.
Very curious about ellis island....been considering staying there
Prime Rib special
People should be able to sue for bedbugs if it has been an issue for a while and can be proven
You can sue for bedbugs .... You can sue for anything you want as a matter of fact..... You just won't win.
@@thomaslove6494 it’s negligent if the hotel knew and did nothing about it and depending on the damage yes you can sue and people have won if they get serious infection and it can be traced to the hotel.
@@marlanfarrokhi I'm sure they have won... I travel as an ironworker for a living and have been bitten by bed bugs probably over a dozen times.... I also brought them back to my house once and I honestly still can't be sure if all the eggs are dead or still dorment ones just waiting to hatch...
But proving a hotel knew and did nothing is next to impossible in court.... They'd have to be the dumbest hotel owners ever to make info like that available....
I've gotten bed bugs at some really nice places as well... Not just roach motels....
@@thomaslove6494 people don’t realize some high end hotels in Vegas have bedbugs… it’s sad that some hotel management can’t manage what actually matter… Having a bed with no bugs!
@@marlanfarrokhi About 15 years ago I recall the local Las Vegas TV news reported about the upscale hotels having bedbug problems.
But I've noticed over the past five years, as myself a Southern Nevada resident, the local TV news are very restrained to report about anything negative with the major Strip resorts.
Many coworkers and friends have asked me to suggest things to do or see when they go to Vegas for a vacation. I tell all of them to sign up for the players card program at whatever casino they walk into and play a few dollars in the slots. They will send you offers for comp rooms here and there, most of which still expect you to pay a resort fee so still gonna run average $40 a night, but it still works better than staying at the Motel Sketchy. For example, I have played very little at the Venetian...don't even think lost $100 in the slots there last year...and I get offers all the time for 3 free nights. Now I've been a Diamond player with Caesars for the last 3-4 years and haven't directly paid for a room out there in some time lol. But yeah, just sign up for the players card, put a few dollars in a slot machine, and you'll get room offers for somewhere that doesn't come with bed bugs or bodily fluids.
I, CONCUR . . . Players Card, is the way to go ! 😎🇺🇸🤗
While I agree that Player Cards are the way to go to get discounts. Nobody is offering 3 free nights after you spent less than $100 playing slots.
@@alexh8613 I get offers from Venetian pretty often and have played very little money there. The fine print on the mailout does say it's still subject to daily resort fee, but the offers do come. I get a few offers from the Mirage also and have spent very little money there as well. Just my experience.
@@alexh8613 for the last 8 years I get one or two a month from a particular casino that I've never played $100 at combined.
They do have a resort fee around $35 a night.
I'm not shocked by any of these. The reviews you found were hilarious 🤣😆😂
I stayed at the Circus Circus Manor on one of my first EDC trips. Back then we called them the bungalows and it seemed like our entire building was being hotboxed. I would not stay there voluntarily again.
That's a dump lol! Hotel is cleaner ! Lobby been the same since I was 12 and I'm 53
Yep, the Manor sucks! I stayed there once years ago because it was cheap and never again! Ghetto, bed bugs, fresh pair of clean socks were like black from walking around on the carpet for like 5 mintues!
I booked a cheap hotel once as I was there for work,the manager cancelled my reservation and told me I was not staying there. As I pulled out of the parking lot the swat team was kicking in doors and it was 1 in the afternoon. 😄.
LMAOOO amazing
Kinda puts things in perspective when you hear folks grumble about the outdated furnishings of Luxor or Excalibur. I've stayed at both before with zero problems...and at half the price people are paying for genuine flea-bag motels in the video.
Excalibur is cheap amd the have alot of fast food chains to eat at in there. 🙂
JacobslifeinVegas, great video! Lots of good information on Las Vegas. Enjoy your week!🙏
This is very funny. Couldn't stop from laughing and dry heaving.
Thanks Mark 🤣
Back in the 90's I was traveling through Vegas and just wanted a place to stop for the night. Vegas was full up so went to Circus Circus which at the time had a list of available hotel/motel rooms. They found us a place in a motel in the dead zone between the Strip and Downtown. Couldn't call out for a pizza because the phone was always busy. Guessing it was other guests calling out for some companionship, because the beds had a plastic lining between the sheets and the mattress. At least they were prepared!
Stopped 1 night at the diamond inn, not sure they are used to overnight guests. I think it’s more of rent by the hour location. The mirrors on the wall to the side of the bed totally compliment the mirrors above the bed.
This was absolutely hilarious! We go to Vegas often and I needed a little humor today. Thank you!
Hey I appreciate your reviews man, love the content
Thank you jacob for yet another informative video surrounding Las Vegas, in regards to those locations we should all know by now that there are all types of people in the world and many will still hoover to these places perhaps being cheap or out of the lack of a lot of money and desperation just for the vegas experience so with some they would consider it a deal and a dream especially if they come from a place way worse than those hotels, one mans garbage is another man's treasure😳
My wife and I went to Las Vegas the first time, we were doing a two-week road trip from our home in southeast Alabama to Los Angeles and back. On the way back home, we stopped in LV for a couple of nights. We didn't have any reservations. We stopped at a Motel 6 on Tropicana next to Hooters hotel and casino. We had never stayed at a more sketchy place. It was disgusting. Needless to say, the next time in LV, we had reservations at a resort.
Oh yeah, the Motel 6 on Tropicana is a dump. The Oyo and the Howard Johnson in that area suck too. Pimps, hookers, drug dealers, bums, and junkies.
Love your videos very raw open and honest. Keep it up champ from Australia.
Great video. Back in 2000, I stayed at a hotel in I guess a part of Naked City, one block west of the Strip between the Stratosphere and Charleston blvd. Roaches, unbelievably filthy carpet, TV didn't work, everything about the bed was suspect.
You should check out the reviews for “Waverley Hotel” in Toronto Canada, on Trip Advisor, if you want a good laugh. It has been closed for a while, but the review that starts with, “Super awesome place to cook meth” is worth the read! Lol
Thanks the laugh! What a place lol
The thing with bed bugs is they can come home with your luggage and you'll have a tough job getting rid of them. Absolute deal breaker when they're so obvious they can be photographed, like in one of these reviews.
To rid your house of bedbugs brought home requires basically cooking everything in your house for like 12 hours. I never want to have to do that.
Your vids are great love the description and detail you put into each one
When you showed the pictures in Circus Circus Manor it brought back 10 year old memories of that disgusting place from when I stayed there during a soccer tournament.
The city needs to have room inspectors on the whole area of the hotels, we as tourists make an effort to save money and make time to visit Las Vegas and having a “place to remember” in a bad way is not good for everyone. Specially the reputation of Las Vegas. If anyones rents a cheap room they expect simple BUT CLEAN.
Epic reviews! Most people are a lot funnier than they know.
Great review! You should do a comparison between Atlantic City's worst and Vegas!
Thank you to our host Jacob. I’ve stayed at some budget hotels. Not only the interiors, but the fellow guests. You see persons “hanging our” at all hours.
The old saying goes "You get what you pay for". Keep that in mind when picking a hotel to stay at.
My wife and I stayed at the Super 8 on Korvo back in February of 2019. The room was great along with the friendly staff and service provided which included and transportation to the airport. Across from the MGM and we’d stay there again.
Just started watching your channel love it thank you
Brilliant vid best laugh I've had today thank you buddy.
I hope you can rate some smaller (not the BIG hotels) that are clean, run right and reasonable in cost. I don't care about pools, exercise rooms, bars, or restaurants. To me, you use a room to shower, sleep and a place to unpack your suitcase.
One of these was $120 a night, I stayed at the new Virgin for $129 (that's it, no resort fees, complimentary valet parking, complimentary snacks and they upgraded our room to a suite) and it was fabulous! The service was impeccable, great pools and great restaurants.
They charge resort fees now
I stayed at the Trump International hotel and they gave me a nice room. For that price range. Can’t get past the elevator without a key. Very safe place.
Thanks for the info my guy!!!
Thank you so very very much for your video! ❤️.
The hotel casino at Jean that was torn down. Had to stay there once a long time ago. There were shoe prints and bicycle tire marks on the walls of our room. It is a 96 pump chevron station now. 😝
Stayed at a motel “downtown” Vegas on Fremont about 40 years ago called the Orbit Inn. The place was a disaster. Too many wrong things I still, after all these years, get out of my head. The worst part was it was a far distance from the real downtown so that walking back from downtown was a trip through a war zone.
None of that exists anymore.
so it musta been past El Cortez and that propane fueled grasshopper. The farthest i ventured was at that grasshopper mall.....the rest of the road, businesses looked shady.
It's good to see Murr hustling it out on his TH-cam channel. He has to be pretty busy on Impractical Jokers. respect!
Again, excellent info. 😎👍
This is my favorite video that you've ever done. I couldn't stop laughing.
I stayed at number 4 on the list and I got legit robbed by the hotel staff
My luggage had been gone thru and I had 1500$ cash disappear from one of my suitcases
I was told I could file a police report if I wanted and then got kicked off the property when I complained to the front desk staff
True story.
March 2012
I'm guessing you were on drugs, and in some form resembled a lizard? I mean, in that condition, things will happen...
So what your saying is that it would have been cheaper to stay at the Venetian Hotel.
Also true: don't leave cash unattended in your room unless it has a safe. Did you learn your lesson?
@@boneyn3661 definitely learned my lesson. Young and ignorant I was.
@@fractalreptillian6985 I've been there as well. Too bad we can't trust everyone.
Dude. Great review. Really entertaining. I had to stop eating my lunch half way through tho
😆
Thank you so much for the tips. I review before I stay anywhere and take the reviews with a grain of salt, but these are pretty vivid. 😂
De nada Mitchell!
I drive the billboard trucks on the strip and I know that area of motel 8 and diamond inn, very well. And before this video started, I was telling myself I'd be shocked if they didn't make the list lmao.
I thought for sure the Aztec Inn would be on the list!
Thank you for this video
First time My wife and I stayed in Vegas, we stayed at the Circus Circus manor. The Room we had wasn't really that bad. Next time we stayed at the Howard Johnson. Winos were staying at the corner of the property. Wife bought a box of wine. When we were done we gave what was left to one of the winos.
When ever I stay in Vegas I always bring my own drain snake, Lysol, sheets, and cooler filled with ice.
The drain snake is smart 👍🏻 of course all the other things you mentioned but I think a lot of people wouldn’t remember the drain snake 😆
Depending on what part of the strip I'm staying on I'm either going to CVS or Walgreens that's the first place I go 😂
And artworks, carpet and sofa cushion?
Places to definitely avoid. Thanks for the warnings! Stayed at the Circus several years ago before we moved to Henderson. It was beyond terrible. Eventually, it hasn’t changed. I wonder how they are still in business. Avoid at all costs!
probably why everybody stays at Circus Circus is for the bowling alley, the arcade room and circus entertainment and of course, Adventuredome.
Strange. My nephew and I stayed at Circus Circus 6 years ago and had no problems whatsoever. Except the buffet. OMFG avoid, avoid, AVOID!
@@MegaMkmiller - Yes! The buffet is like the worst I had ever had and don't stay at the Manor there either!
@@leemehan Buffet is THE worst I have ever had. The ''Manor'' is out of the question. But staying there was just fine. Location is too far out of the way but I thought the hotel was kind of fun actually. Hey, it's cheap.
I'm so glad that Motel 6 is not included. I stayed at Tropicana & Kova, that's close to Howard Johnson. Mostly, I get 3 or 4 comp nights at Excalibur, Luxor, MGM Grand, Venetian/Palazzo, Golden Nugget, etc. 👌👍
Good stuff man 🙂
Wow. I have seen a few vids of Vegas since the "pandemic" and I am surprised and a bit depressed to see the streets and side walks so dead.
The wife and I were married in Vegas In 2000. We've been back every year since except the last 3.
We love Nevada and especially Vegas, warts and all.
I learned the hard way that it's better to stay on the strip. If you're off strip, sketchy or not, you end up wasting a lot of time and money on the cab to and from the strip to the point it's not worth any savings on the room rate.
Yeah and Monday to Thursday it's $25-$30 to stay at Luxor the flamingo or the strat sometimes even less plus a resort fee so $50-$60
Hello that was pretty good. Information. Entertaining. I grew up on the strip and in Vegas. I know those places but I could maybe make some suggestions and you can tour some of the Sketches hotels and rooms in Vegas you didn't even touch on. There's probably multiple videos you can make on this subject that would be hysterical. I've been coming here since the 70s
nice meeting you in the promenade this week ! subscribed !
Thank you! You as well! Glad you got back to Texas safely!
Those are my favorite places to rent when I am in vegas, great prices too!
Haha
I stayed at the Howard Johnson's on Tropicana 30 years ago. Back then it was a Motel 6 before the Motel 6 move to a bigger complex next door. In 1991 it was a clean and comfortable budget hotel. I'm sure it hasn't been renovated since and you'd have to pay me to set foot in the place today. At least it still has a pool.
@Thomas The Motel 6 on Tropicana was my go to in the 70s and 80s. At the time, there was a Spires coffee shop next door. It was so nice to just take the Tropicana freeway exit, and then go straight. I didn't have to fight the Strip traffic.
In March I stayed in the top floor corner of the 4 Queens for $42 a night. Loved it.
I liked your video! It’s ironic that my wife and I have been to the Circus Circus in Reno and it seems much nicer than the one in Las Vegas. You know, not Caesars but nice.
Had a room cancelled at MGM when getting in late from flight being delayed eneded up at the Hotel galaxy for a Saturday night was wild, the things that took place in a 12 hour period were amazing, couldn't even leave luggage in room without someone being left behind because was convinced it would be stolen with the staffs help more than likely, so shady
I stayed in that Motel 8 many times over the past 10 years. It was cheap and I rarely stayed over two nights. Never saw any bugs but never actually got too comfortable and I slept on top of the bed. For me and my budget it worked out at the time. This year I stayed at the Mandalay Bay though. That area is great to get cheap food at McDonald's and the gas station down the block. That saves me even more money!
I used to stay at the WESTERN at the end of Fremont Street before it closed😳.
Most of the old motels on Fremont are closed and fenced in. Creepy at night.
I have lived in the Vegas Valley for over 25 years and when friends ask me where not to stay on the Strip my first warning is " Circus, Circus"!!! Heck even the casino smells!!! The buffet would be overpriced if it were free!! But the better hotels on the strip charge too much and add on extra fees!!! But for some visiting Las Vegas is a once in a lifetime thing and here spending more gets you more!!
Good video keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Try the "Fun City Motel" in Vegas. Stayed here only one night in the 90's, only to find out there was no A/C ( this was the end of July in Vegas, ) and when pulling back the sheets to go to bed, had 3 or 4 cockroaches in the bed scatter everywhere. We tried to get a refund and the office there refused to do anything about it. Will never stay there again.
Great show
Thanks Jacob I think you do a great job we’re from Milwaukee and I Watch and listen to all your videos you’re number one to me out there Steve is right behind you later brother
Nice video Jacob!!! Will you be coming out with a list for Fremont Street/downtown?
That's at least a 15 minute video lol
If you haven't heard water may be very limited in the future wherever you stay. Las Vegas gets its water from Lake Meade. Lake Meade is only about 36% of capacity. Water and electricity could become scarce there in a few years.
And the valley only gets two percent of the water
Even the dirtiest places can be entertaining, in their own way....
Thanks for this
I stayed at the CC Manor on my first trip to Vegas as a 21 y/o. It was not bad and we enjoyed our stay there.
That was 1985!
My guess is if we went back there they would have the same bedding and sheets from then.
That place is still stuck in 1982!
@@leemehan 100% agree which is why the only time I go there is to take my niece to Adventure Playground OR the world-class steakhouse. How a sh*thole like CC can have one of the greatest steakhouses on the planet is one of life's great mysteries
@@cancersurvivor9992 - I wouldn't give up the 80's for nothing and I actually love the Circus Circus, but u have to stay at a high-end hotel room there and don't stay in the Manor what so ever! Also, never eat at the buffet at the Circus Circus because it is one of the worst buffets I have ever had! Yes, The Steakhouse at the Circus Circus is one of the best in Vegas! The only one that is probably a notch better that I have had is at The Golden Steer! The Steakhouse at the Circus Circus and The Golden Steer steakhouse are probably the top steakhouses in Vegas!
@@leemehan In 1985 I went to Vegas for the first time as a 21-y/o. A friend and I stayed at the Manor because we were college students. First morning there we decide to go to the CC Buffet since it cost next-to-nothing. We overpaid for it. To call that food inedible would be a compliment. If my options were: Dying of hunger OR eating that buffet I might choose "dying of hunger" because it is the more compassionate way to die. Once again - how a place like CC can have a steakhouse of the quality they do is one of life's great mysteries.
For me it's a suite at a newer/nice hotel or nothing. I learned that a long time ago. I won't even stay in a regular room in a nice hotel. The suites are kept much nicer.
You can't drink champagne on a beer budget.
Then sparkling wine it is!
I love The Laughing Jackalope sign.
I stayed 4 nights at the Travelodge center strip in Aug 2021, LOVED the location, because I could walk out and not wait for elevators, I was at the cosmo casino sometimes quicker than my friends staying there in the Chelsea tower (and my friends at the Aria lol). Plus, my room was actually not too bad. For the price (I paid like 350 for 4 nights lol) it was worth it!
I stayed at the Circus Circus Manor two years ago. It was nice. Comfy beds and pillows. Bathroom clean. Reviews say hall carpet smell but I did not found that situation.
Moy . . . that's 'I did not find' ! 💀
Stayed at Circus twice for a pool tournament. I liked it. They had just renovated it. Food was decent. Had a good steak house and a McDonald's.
I don't understand people who walk around barefoot in hotel rooms. I ALWAYS wear disposable spa slippers.
for real, the $1 foam slippers from Walmart cannot be beat and double as great shower shoes
@@videoluvr4204 Same here.. Throw away before going home. Best dollar you can spend.
Nice video. I visited Las Vegas in mid-December 2021 and am thinking about returning at Spring Break. I'll be avoiding these places.
Thanks Richard! Good call 👍
The Ramada just off the strip was my home for 5 nights while in Vegas for business. The mattress was probably 50 years old and each night I just rolled into the huge indention that had been made by who knows how many people over the years. The roaches were included at no extra cost.
I enjoyed staying at “South Point”. The rooms are huge and comfortable. The entertainment is enjoyable. On the flip side is “Excalibur”. The rooms felt worn out needing remodeling. However, I do enjoy the entertainment there. What I would like to see is the return (and renovated) Merlin and the Dragon show outside the casino. Other then that it wouldn’t hurt my feelings if the entire structure came down and replaced. I guess my favorite in Las Vegas is (was) my home in Rhodes Ranch.
@Biggus Dickus I believe the Luxor opened in '93 also. I don't know what it's like today.
Yes, South Point is very nice.
Stayed at the South Point March 2022 for the USBC Bowling Tournament. According to what I had read about, I knew that staffing would be short-handed. So, being a decent person, I decided to choose the limited cleaning room attendant option. Don't do it unless you really enjoy your privacy. Every personal cleaning item including towels, soup and toilet paper were NOT Well Managed for more than 1 day even though the reservations were made in advance for two individuals. When I requested more soap and shampoo, they sent it to us in a huge plastic bag. No effort taken at all to set them up. The extra toilet paper was left next to the plastic too. No effort taken at all by cleaning staff. The toilet paper was the worst/Something you would purchase from a Walmart at 1 U.S Dollar/The kind that irritates you in places you don't appreciate/Not even Angel Soft quality. On a positive note, I do like the South Point and have stayed there every time for TAT and USBC Bowling Tournaments. I hope last year's stay was just a Fluke. Even after last year's stay, I would still rate the South Point at 4 Stars. If you don't like long Buffet Lines there are a lot very pleasant restaurants in the area. Even McDonalds, Seven Elevens, Black Bear Diners (amazing menu and awesome tasting food), Del Taco too. Although for me, the smoothies in the South Point are a must for my hunger cravings. DO NOT CHOOSE THE LIMITED CLEANING ROOM ATTENDANT OPTION!
How about a similar list of cheap properties that are surprisingly nice for the price that visitors may not know about?
NOOOOO! That'll ruin it for those of us "in the know!"
@@JimBeary yes agree
Tuscany suites just off the strip
I think that the Signature at MGM is a great value. I love it because all the rooms have a full kitchen so you can save a ton of money on food. There was also complimentary valet parking the last time I stayed there. (Yes, you still have to tip but the cost is still way lower than what other properties are charging for parking.) The downside is that it's a bit of a walk to the MGM casino, but it is all indoors.
Like underrated?
Those are perfect for truck drivers!! That Lucky Club in North Las Vegas on Cheyenne and 15 is sketchy.
A couple of ol friends from Chicago stayed at last hotel 😂😂😂😂😂😂 and your video is not lying. He found a dragon fly in his coffee while staying so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
These places remind me of the La Concha motel that I stayed at in Vegas, back in 2000 😂
I recently stayed at the Circus Circus, we weren't in a manor room but we still had a sketchy experience. We were about to get on the elevator a very interesting individual asked if we could help him find a room on one of the tower floors after declining he muttered a string of expletives. It was very obvious that he was under the influence of drugs and he was at the hotel to obtain more.
Mental health is real and hotels in Las Vegas don't discriminate.
@@boneyn3661 Well they did discriminate because he didn't get into the hotel.
@@lynntravels Glad to hear you realized that most people with mental illness are harmless and we don't need to overreact.
This is amazing.
I guess it's about time to think about nice and clean, and yet budget "Capsule Motel" in touristy town like Vegas 🥰
Years ago we stayed several nights at the Dunes Hotel (no longer there). I had gone down to the desk to see if we could stay an extra few nights. The clerk said they were completely booked because of a convention in town.
We couldn't find a room anywhere. We finally found a dump of a motel combined with the Chapel of the Bells wedding chapel on the North end of the Strip across the street from a IHOP pancake house.
Let me tell you, it was a scary place back then. The carpet had a huge stain that looked like someone had been murdered. We stayed one night and got the hell out of Dodge.
Great video again my friend!! I can’t wait to visit this amazing city again soon hopefully stuffing my mouth at those spectacular buffets. And good luck to the Golden Knights! - Gary
Thank you Gary!
Glad I watched this I was looking at booking the Travelodge for 10 nights as they're half decent in the UK here but think I'll go to Luxor instead
What is now known as the Downtowner motel was the Days Inn Downtown. Wow was that an experience. I stayed there when it was the Days and I woke up one morning to find needles all over the parking lot. I called the front desk and asked them if they intended to clean the area and told them what I saw. Let's just say, the response I got wasn't very friendly. Never again - My last stay was at the Luxor and while it's an older property I didn't have to deal with any of those sticky issues.
I wish there was a Pompsie type channel for these kinds of Hotels/Motels.
Pompsie wouldn't actually stay at the hotels anyway. He would just have a quick room tour and then a bunch of clips of him and his girlfriend having dinner.
I always loved one small motel down by the Stat that said "highly recommended by the owner"
Is that the Rumfield or similar?
@@kevinmoore.7426 I don't remember but always made me laugh
I think it was called the silver spur
We stayed at the Howard Johnson 20 years ago when we went to the nascar race. The hotel looked like a scene from csi. There was old mattress in the parking lot covered in blood. We didn’t sleep well the two nights and left early to head home. It was an experience.
Oh Jacob...those are the kinds of places where .."they shoot the horse's ". Thanks..Good Video!
