Thanks for you continued feedback. I can go as high as $90-100, but being from the Midwest where I score the Doubletree (which is an excellent hotel) in Chesterfield for $34 the thought of spending $100 a night makes me nauseous. I've always heard these stories about traveling to Vegas for a week, RT flight and decent hotel room for $300 and all you can eat prime rib buffets for $4.95, so I was a bit startled when I started booking for this trip. The flight alone, which I spent days and days researching, is $300 a head. Let me ask this as I am a bit confused. I read these horror stories from people about crappy, filthy rooms, broken stuff, etc. in hotels that are suppose to be 3 star or better and they say the staff could care less. Do you think they are not assertive or what? I pay even $80 for a room and it better meet my expectations or I come unglued. (I have this special talent that allows me to roll on eye separate from the other making me look like an escaped mental patient) Are the establishments in Las Vegas that much different than other cities? I've actually never had to rant and rave, the rare times I've had an issue here in the Midwest a stern request usually does the trick. I guess I expect a true 3 star to be equivalent to say a Holiday Inn or Drury Inn. Nothing fancy, but clean and conveys the feeling you won't get rolled on the way out at night and a 4 star to surprise me with little extras. Heck maybe I'm just focusing on the negative reviews, but most of the 3 stars I have tried to research look like dives.
