Most conventioneers have their corporate cards and expense reports so fees or $7 water bottles don’t affect them. Wait till there’s another recession and watch all these fees go poof. Unfortunately, I believe the damage is done and those who made Vegas an annual trip will have already found another place to host their traditions. All the money the casinos gouged from us will have to be spent trying to convince us to come back.

He was let go, along with many other senior hosts. They assigned a young attractive, incompetent and clueless host to me. Comps seem to have dried up to hardly, no coffee in the room and have to take the journey down to the casino floor and buy super expensive coffee. It just continues to build. Im done. I am so very well accommodated for here in the local southern cal casinos. I may be missing some shows and fights, but all the penny pinching and sticking it to the players is just too much. Im done.

What next are they also going to charge a toilet usage fee ? Get a grip Vegas corporate pencil necks. Don’t you realize what you will later do to the bottom line? Most Californians, and other state residents, will just stay home and go to their local casinos.

Vegas is not what it used to be. Hungry and greedy corporate executives are not thinking. A dollar a day everyday is better than $5.00 just once. They need a paradigm shift !

But first came the ridiculous “resort fees,” charging extra for free newspapers, workout room, etc., and taxing that add-on. During my last visit I had to pay to park in the endless stretches of parking garages. Now, drinks fees.
Gaming is never really about winning money; few do. It’s about entertainment, managed risk, and the excitement of the unknown just ahead. By tacking on so many extra fees, the Vegas casino corporations are making those intangibles just too pricey, especially now with so many casinos strung out around the U.S.
Greed and hubris will bring this unreal destination city down.

Now these new “mandatory service charges” on food and beverage purchases are adding serious insult to monetary injury! Ridiculous! I’ve already cut my visits to Las Vegas in half, and it’s safe to say that I am “one additional fee away” from simply discontinuing my visits to Sin City!

These resort fees going directly into the Corporate pocket don’t help those who do the “work” & create the experience. It’ll be a while before I go.down on the strip again. Just saying …

They still had the cheap buffets, loose slots and good free entertainment on stages just off the casino floors. I started going less when they tore down the cheap rooms and forced everyone to stay in the expensive rooms as they started trying to make it a “family destination” and stopped going personally after they added the “resort fees”. I used to go at least 3-4 times a year, now I go once every 4 or 5 years, typically when I have to go for business and the company is paying for it. As for gambling, I just drive 2 hours to the Indian casinos – the slots aren’t loose, but at least they are near by so I do not need to stay in a hotel. Screw Vegas – the greed of the mob was nothing compared to the greed of the modern corporations. At least the mob knew that they had to keep bringing the customers back.

The casino’s should remember what draws in the locals, tourist and visitors. If they are treating people like a number instead of the hospitality it was built on. They will lose millions of dollars, cause an recession from greed and most of all they will lose loyal customers. People are still looking for good deals and if Vegas wants to dime them to death. People will go to other states and places where the deals are. The best concept: “Vegas loves money, but people loves deals. Don’t forget Casino’s without the people, theirs no business. Think back when people wasn’t spending money in Vegas and it caused casino’s to layoff thousands. Don’t allow greed to cause a repeat.

Well, it can only be blamed on the bigger than life corporate GREED!
They’ve lost touch with the most important factor that keeps Vegas a thriving destination, THE TOURISTS! The locals are necessary as well during the off seasons, (if there is actually an off season).
Keep alienating the people who come here to spend their hard earned money you greedy corporate butt-hats!
Yeah, nothing can go wrong with that money grubbing!

The hotel is just a step over motel 6, yet they charge almost 50.00 a day to stay there. They had a jack hammer going outside my room at 5:50 AM, and a forklift in the building tearing up the place. I personally think they should finish up the place, get internet in their 1970’s decorated rooms with moldy carpet and get smart when it comes to ripping people off with the “I think we are a new modern hotel and can charge a fortune to stay there” attitude. I won’t be back.. ever. Too easy to stay in the surrounding areas for less and have more. Place is a dump. It’s almost funny that they got that bold with their “room charges”and didn’t figure out the consequences to come.

We would spend plenty of money in rooms and food and drinks and so on. However, due to the mandatory fees, like parking, even if you don’t have a car, resort fees and drinks fees, we will never, never go back… We thought that spending that money somewhere else, where they would appreciate our business was the best idea from now on. So, as they say in the movies, we will always have somewhere else… Good bye Vegas.

They do have resort fees there too but so far they are not nickle and dimeing you to death. I get free parking at the Golden Nugget and it costs me $20 to stay there each day. The Ocean Casino Resort also has free parking. We use Jitney transportation when we go back and forth to the boardwalk or other casinos at a cost of $2.25 a trip. The ocean and beaches are something you won’t find in Vegas. And they have world class entertainment. I’m not going to Vegas anytime soon.

Now with the new ‘venue fee’ they want the resort fees added to the profits. Don’t be suprised at how much money the new fee can pull in!

The managers, executives and CEO have to get creative to keep those bonuses flowing!

Treating good customers as nothing more than Monopoly pieces became the sole obsession of the Bean Counters, who sit around watching Wall Street results hoping for a promotion which is already squirreled away into their bosses’ wallets.

My disgust was complete when I watched them TRIPLE THE AMOUNT OF CHANGE YOU NEEDED TO PUT INTO PAY PHONES in the poor urban ghettos in the Nineties . Harvesting cash from POOR HUNGRY PEOPLE. Isn’t Capitalism a thrilling sport?

All you need to know about America is this :: YOU NEED TO LIE TO PUT BUTTER & EGGS & BREAD ON YOUR KITCHEN TABLE.

Since Daddy had to lie. He won’t be down on Wall Street any more.

Las Vegas is a Doomed Place. Extrapolate what you will about America, and Capitalism, from that.
