South Point prices are so insane! This property is amazing!
$4 drinks! Breakfasts for $8! Gigantic Prime steaks for $30! Beautiful rooms for $70.
I brought $1,000 to spend over my three-day trip, and after dining at all of the best restaurants, doing a lavish dinner each night, visiting all of the bars & ordering the craziest drinks, and enjoying activities such as a concert and extremely comfortable pool day, I still could not spend all $1,000 and left the property with hundreds of dollars in surplus cash.
This is the last example of a true Las Vegas hotel: an upscale property with fantastic service, various options/venues for people all ages, and prices so cheap you would think you were teleported back to 1981. No wonder why this one of the most popular and best hotels in Las Vegas.
South Point is simply an incredible hotel for the money - it is the best deal in Las Vegas and the perfect hotel for people on a budget but still wanting an unbelievable Vegas experience.
My stay at South Point was delightful, and one of the main reasons for that was I able to explore the entire property and highlight every single one of the brightest and best moments in this video:
- Check-in Process
- Room Tour (Pros & Cons)
- Fine Dining (Silverado - Michael's Gourmet Room - Primarily Prime Rib)
- Casual Dining (Oyster Bar- Starbucks - Market)
- Bars (Let 'er Buck Lounge - USBC Bar)
- A Full Pool Day
- Activities - (Concerts - Bowling Alley 0 Arcade - Movie Theatre - Gym/Spa)
- Gambling (The Casino Floor is Massive)
-- And so much more!!
Plus, this video is unlike any other South Point Las Vegas video because I reveal every single cost and show you how to have the exact same marvelous experience I did!

What I dont get is.. Vegas is always packed. So they could lower the cost of drinks, food, rooms...but they dont because ppl keep paying the ridiculous prices. With all the big venues, sports teams and events (F1). It is nothing more than greed. We go off strip to eat, drink and next trip staying off the strip. Thanks for your video.
Also: that's sooooooooo cool you checked out the Righteous Brothers residency. 😇
Even though my musical tastes are primarily electronic dance music and country-leaning, I have an utmost respect for this duo and they truly are a national treasure. "You're My Soul & Inspiration" is the song that most strikes a chord with me to this day, I think, because my grandparents listened to a lot of Oak Ridge Boys and they recorded a cover of that song too and it was a paramount part of the soundtrack of my early life. 🥰
I’ve been to Laughlin a bunch of times and usually feel like the youngest person there, but it’s fun to see the old people cut loose and have fun
Yay, you’re back in Vegas!!! My partner and I had been missing your Vegas videos.
Thank you so much! I have only been to the South Point for the buffet and it was good and a great value! I plan on staying there sometime soon.
I was in Vegas last week and stayed at GVR. Our daily room rate was $200+. The resort fee was $55 and there was an additional charge of $50/person/daily to utilize the spa pool. The what I call the "bang-bang" pool was included in the resort fee; however, I was so taken aback by this cooperate greed of an additional $50 charge for the spa pool. I hadn't been to Vegas in about four years, and boy was I surprised with this crazy add on fee. Shame on GVR!
I guess I'm going to have to give SP a whirl the next time I'm in town.
Agree 100%.
I’m convinced hotels will charge as much as possible with up front fees - hidden fees & dishonest fees. As long as people continue to pay they will keep finding new ways to increase prices. ✌️🇨🇦 (will always ❤️Vegas)
My stay at Luxor on the strip was $130 total for a Friday night before an NFL game.
Yes gvr is a total rip off , Southpoint is a great deal especially off season.. Sunset Station hotel and casino is amazing and surrounded by restaurants on the streets, walking distance, like Mimi's Cafe , Asian and Mexican places.
Great video as always!! Southpoint is a favorite with so much to do, low prices and fantastic employees!
Hold on..... You missed the iconic $1.50 hotdog stand! South Point owner Michael Gaughan started selling hot dogs in 1979 when he opened Barbary Coast. He refuses to change the price and vows to always sell them at $1.50. It's located next to the Sportsbook. I have lived here in Vegas for 20 years and have been going to Southpoint since the day it opened. Southpoint also has the best poker room in Vegas.
according to this video you would think that the race/sports book have been eliminated as well as the $1.50 hot dogs.
I know. The hot dogs are the best...
SP is also the BEST for Video Poker players. I play DD Bonus and have gotten so many 4 of a kind. Remember getting my 1st RF. Needed Queen of Hearts and drew it. I didn’t even think of the 2K I won just so thrilled to get a Royal.
I totally agree with you about the present Las Vegas. It is a lot of greed. Resort Fees are a rip off and you do not get anything for them. Paying for parking is another rip off. What are suppose to do with your car??? My family and I stay at South Point now every time we come to Las Vegas. We Love it. Great video❤😊
One of my FAVORITE resorts. Clean rooms, clean casino, and great amenities. Not to mention the fact they cater to the country and cowboy crowd. GREAT place.
Love South Point, have stayed there a couple of times for USBC Nationals Bowling. Great place to gamble too.
The South Point is a great property! It just has a great feel to it. They have the best breakfast buffet in town at $13.95 m-f with a players card. Great selection and food quality at that price. The Coronado Cafe also has some great Chinese food too! It's getting a bit pricey but the quality is good. The only restaurant that I don't recommend BIG TIME is Baja Miguels. I went there once and that was enough. The Mexican food you get at Disneyland is 10 times better. Once again, a really nice property to eat and hang out at. Plus they still have free parking too!
We've been coming to the South Point since it opened years ago it gets better every year.
yep southpoint and red rock casino are my go tos Golden nugget if i really want to stay down town. I have not stayed at M resort yet but hear good things.
I have to stay here! The prices and activities are right.
Hey, you’ve made the wife and me want to stay at south point! What time of year did you film this? Pool looked amazing (and quiet)
Genial, las Vegas es maravillosa 🎉
I love that casino. I live 4 hours away in California and go there at least twice a month.
Some of the best and cheapest shows I have attended were at the southpoint
Excellent video! This will absolutely be my next stay in Vegas. You had wonderful over-the-top dinners each night - but you didn't mention anything about breakfast or lunch... I'm guessing you didn't need them - lol.
That piece of steak was not cooked at all whatsoever. Lol.
It was prime rib. Not steak
@@GaryVC that piece of prime rib was not cooked at all whatsoever.
that desert frest raspberries and blackberries delicious healthy
One thing I regret is not taking advantage of the great shows when I went to Vegas.
Rightous review!
A hidden gem
I used to love Southpoint
Who goes to the casino and dosent gamble ? It’s a great place dont get me wrong your right on all points would have liked to see more gambling on the channel and film it not sure if that’s allowed but it would definitely add to the channel there’s a whole slot community wanting to know how the slots are there . Plus if you gamble there the rooms and meals are comped . I only stayed once and they offered me free rooms . We love it there now. New sub here❤
Las vegas… lo mejor!
If MGM stopped shafting everybody , and people got owner occupied casinos back it would be a change for the better , all the nickel and dimming all goes back too MGM , resort fees , paid parking etc etc etc all started by MGM ! AND if “ South Point “ can offer all the luxury and Quality for the prices you stated , it shows you how much the Strip Casinos are racking in the profits , they could charge half the prices and still make decent profit margins, MGM will destroy the goose that lays the Golden egg , they’ll just leave a mess behind and rely on their foreign Cash cows like Dubai and China .
Shhhhhh….. don’t let the masses know about this secret gem of a resort.
Muy bien 🫶🏻
My Prime Rib last year was $26.00
South Point is LV's most underrated hotel. More underrated than Mandalay Bay.
💯
good to see you here bro
I absolutely LOVE South Point. It's been our go-to for a few years now. Love watching football all day Saturday or Sunday in the sports book - with $1.50 hot dogs on a cart nearby. Who does that any more? These guys know who their customer is and how to treat them. And don't forget parking is free too.
Insanely fun and affordable hotel
@@CoolistHow much cost: ride share to get there from South Strip? High chance of mugging if one walks the beaten track from Mandalay Bay & LV sign...
I really enjoy the SP too but the hot dogs you mentioned are nasty! I mean nasty!
One of my favorite hotels.
1. free valet and free parking
2. Coffee makers in the rooms (K-Cups)
3. Great restaurants
4. The coffee shop offers great deals for late nite diners who want something to eat before going to bed.
5. 3 to 2 blackjack
6. Video blackjack machines at the bar allow splitting and doubling down.
7. Refrigerators in the rooms
8. Nice spa
9. Coupon books when you check in that include free cocktails and beers.
10. Great deli in the sportsbook
11. Great sportsbook
12. Good hotdog cart in sportsbook
13. I love their oyster bar.
It is what old Vegas used to be before the beancounters wanted to nickel and dime everything.
Best place in Vegas by far. This what it looks like when you go somewhere that is owed by a person and not a corporation. A person that truly cares about his customers and treats his employees like family. Mr G is an amazing man.
As a 'local'; I always recommend South Point to visitors. One of the main reasons you enjoyed your trip was (as you pointed out / tips, etc) was happy employees. The owner, Michael Gaughan; takes very good care of the employees. Michael IS Old School Vegas. BTW: They feature a large poker room, too.
I’ve been to south point a few times but last time I went I didn’t like it. One of the dealers was being a rude SOB. he busted and thought he got 21 and started taking our money. When confronted, he was even more rude and acted like he knew what he was doing. Anyways, the cameras showed he did bust and ended up paying us.other than that, their buffet, bowling, and low minimums are good. I will say their rewards program is absolute garbage. I remember they had a promotion where u had to play for a thousand bucks to get a $25 Walmart gift card lol
Oh man, this place keeps getting better! Poker room, I'm sold
Poker room full of a bunch of OMCs
What’s a OMC’s
@@Stacker2112 old man coffee. Someone who plays extremely tight poker. Gives no action
Absolutely loved and believed your enthusiasm. The Vegas in me has been slowly dying for the exact reasons you stated. After watching this video I am actually filled with optimism. I have never been to South Point nor have I ever considered it but after watching you describe your experience I cant wait to visit this property. What you do is a great thing and I thank you. Cheers from Seattle.
CVS / WALLGREENS Runs! One of the oldest Las Vegas traditions.
Wow 🤩 what an awesome review 👏🏽 don’t forget the $5 steak & eggs breakfast special at the cafe 12am-6am 🥩🍳🥓Please also do one at The Cannery 🤟🏽
My fiancé and son work at SP. I have 2 good friends that worked at Prime Rib and all 4 like/d working there. All get paid decently and above average for the city. The only real big complaint we really hear about is the room rates are slightly higher than most think they should be. In a lot of cases you can pay more at SP than a strip casino. That said it evens out with the cheaper prices of everything else.
When you go to The South Point. You came go up to most bars with a slot machine and place a $20 bill in it and gamble a quarter at a time while your drinks are served for FREE! Just have to tip the bartender for the drinks served. Cash out and and continue to enjoy a great resort and casino. 👍
24 hour sports book. A great race horse sports book closes after the last of horse races.
The Mexican restaurant bar area also has a happy hour. Well worth the happy hour. 👍
All in all, the South Point has everything you need for any stay.
Was there last week for one night before moving over to park mgm. Should have stayed all three night at Southpoint. They weren’t hacked, and earned a lot more points for the money. Cheese burger at the pool is only $10. Alredyhave a trip planned there next year. Great video!!!
Your intro for this video is why I will be staying there...again...for 5 days next month. I have been staying at South Point when I vacation in Las Vegas for over 10 years. The resort has everything you discuss. I have to say that on my own channel, you can find my many videos on this property. And yes, I had my birthday a few years ago at Michael's restaurant there. The service puts even Michelin star restaurants to shame. I highly encourage people who have dined around the world to experience the highest level of luxurious service at Michael's. It reminds me of the staff service from the television show "The Gilded Age." Thanks for highlighting South Point. Now, let's hope they don't increase the prices like other greedy casino resorts in Vegas.
Haven't given Southpoint a thought before. Might have to give it a try. I like the true Vegas nature you describe! Miss that version of Vegas!!
I love this video more than any other you have done to be honest. You seem to be truly in touch with having a good time and enjoying life on a budget. Thats what its all about!
My mom has been going to South Point for a couple years now. She's always getting comped rooms and has won decent money from playing Quarter Keno there. Wife and I haven't checked it out as we really like Palazzo and try to stay there and earn rewards, but will definitely add SP to our list.
Please get ready to review the Fontainebleau Las Vegas!
you know this 😊
@@Coolist
❤❤❤❤
LQQKING forward to it. They say the pool area is SMALL.
They’re gonna have to work very hard to justify their room rates. Being as far north as it is, and with the rooms being smaller than many other offerings on the strip, it’s gonna be a hard sell so far.
@@uptildawnltd3253 They're banking heavily on the convention crowd, and although conventions have rebounded somewhat they're still well below where they were at in 2019 so that's another major looming concern for them.
I can't help but imagine in an alternate reality without the 2008 financial crisis what it would have been like if Fontainebleau had opened right on time as originally planned in 2008 or so, just several years after Encore opened. Because Wynn/Encore are unmistakably Fontainebleau's most direct competition, and although there will be some clientele who LOVE Wynn/Encore but also have been thirsting for a new high-end experience for a long while now and, thus, will consider Fontainebleau................the flip side of that is that Fontainebleau not opening on Wynn/Encore's heels has given Wynn/Encore the opportunity to cement and sinew their reputation as the #1 Best Ranked Resort on the Strip and remain so for sooooooooo long: which only further adds to the pressure in Fontainebleau's camp to live up to their hype.
@@alyonapetrova694 The standard pool certainly is. Their VIP pool is comparatively large, and I don't know how big LIV Dayclub's will be.
Awesome! I miss the old Vegas of the 70s.. 99 breakfast - 2.99 buffets - 15 hotel rooms and no resort fees. The beautiful showgirls etc… glad to see there’s one place left not gouging us. Thanks for the video.
Dude, you can feel the LOVE! True enthusiasm and appreciation for VEGAS value we used to remember! Although I was staying at Elara (loved it btw) I made it my mission to visit several locals casinos (Red Rock, GVR, Palace Station, and SP) over the Labor day weekend, and beyond. I was so jazzed to see casinos that were new to me. And REAL CUSTOMER SERVICE! Coming back to the strip seemed deflating to say the least. The smell of weed, high table minimums, poor returns on gaming, , construction, and fees for everything. Need I say more? Those two conglomerates that control the strip have acquired and accumulated more than they can handle, and things are just getting outta control. My next visit will certainly be more focused on the locals market for sure. Here's to another great video (raises glass).
25 cent Blackjack at South Point! You cannot find that anywhere else in Vegas! Free comped drinks no matter how much your gambling. Best value buffet in Vegas $27. Their Vienna hot dog stand is really good too I heard. Lots of restaurants, movie theater, bowling alley, lots to do at South Point
Hi James, great content as always! Totally agree - the "Old Vegas" is long gone. I fly out to Vegas 4 to 6 times a year from Traverse City, Michigan. I noticed my comps have been going down these past two years - while I spend more money at each visit. I found MGM Rewards still has some decent comps remaining. Caesars have been lousy for comps and it seems like Venetian/Palazzo has been cheap with the free rooms lately. I'm coming out in three weeks for a golf tournament we're staying at Mandalay Bay, MGM and then last two nights at Circa. I'm booking all the dinners for our group of 5 for a week. I'm booking a high-end Steakhouse, a great Sushi place, and Italian fare. Using your previous Vegas content as my guide to great dining! Please keep the Vegas content coming, James, - you are the best travel guide on YT!
They also have excellent meal comps if you play table games. This is the best casino for value. Not really fancy, but excellent staff, restaurants, drink service, and poker room.
The part you didn’t mention in this video is how South Point smells like an armpit. It’s got a smell that I can’t quite describe. It’s like a ripe sweaty ballsack mixed into a spray bottle that is sprayed all around the premises. 😂
As a non smoking local i can say the only thing that i hate about southpoint is the smoke 💨 other than that i win there a lot

Thanks James! I been feeling ripped off in Vegas for the last couple of years, glad to see there’s still some value left in town. Great video as always.
Thanks James! You were right on our last chat, one of your best ever videos. Nice to see that you don’t have to be on the strip (or break the bank) to have a great time. Keep up the good work Brother!
Yooo - Thanks West!! I've been focusing on quality over quantity lately. I'm glad you are enjoying them and i really appreciate your consistent support 🙌
@@Coolist You have always done a great job but lately the work is more superior than ever. Think it would be great if you started expanding out to other cities to review hotels. You have a real talent and you bring a fun but practical viewpoint to your videos. Thanks again for all that you do James.
I mostly agree with your thesis, EXCEPT you need to check out Sam's Town. That, too, is a last bastion of old-school your-money-goes-a-LONG-way Vegas that is widely respected. 🥰
My educated guess as to how you'd rate this resort is a 3. Your tone wasn't quite "Definite" territory at least to me, but unmistakably something you'd recommend everyone to check out at least once. ☺
I've been a loyal MGM Resorts customer for 15 years. We usually go once a month. I recently discovered the South Point and I love it! I'm considering giving them mall my action now since MGM had this horrible hacking problem and bed bugs.

I really liked their buffet last time I visit. They also have a world class sports book. I don't think I've ever gambled there but I do like visiting for the buffet. Another bargain is the Casablanca / Virgin River in Mesquite. It isn't Vegas but if you want a Vegas experience without the Vegas price tag, it is worth a trip.
We booked Christmas night dinner at P.P this year on the way in for my 50th birthday celebration mostly because a lot of Vegas weren't offering or were closed because it was xmas. We had never been to South Point and what a mistake. Place was banging ,meal and service was great and all price point of tables . My husbands stepped out for a smoke during dinner and won $500 in a slot in that 10 mins. With the free valet and service it certainly DID feel like old Vegas. Good to see you back in Vegas !
We discovered South Point in 2021 after our flight was cancelled and Alaska put us up there for 2 nights. Such a great value and very impressed with the food. One of the afternoons we sat at the bar in the back playing the same $20 for a few hours and getting free drinks. We also had some pretty good slot wins while we were there. Great video!
Southpoint isn't the only "local's casino" that provides value. Many of the local's casinos throughout Vegas provide great bang for your $. That includes many of the casinos in downtown.
I really think all these big venues drive up the cost too. Used to stay at Monte Carlo until Tmobile arena. Then Holiday Inn Desert Club...the Sphere has ruined that for us. Based on you video - I will be looking at South Pointe
This is one of the local spots. Don’t tell nobody.
I had no idea how much South Point had to offer. The Righteous Brothers show sounds amazing!
After tiring of the Strip and Downtown, I tried Red Rocks last time in Vegas. The more time I spend off-Strip the more I like Vegas again.
Hey hey James ! I’ve never been in the South Point . Very nice indeed . Loved the room especially at that price . Espresso martinis I also love …well as you know me by now I love all martinis 🍸 lol. Those dinners looked amazing. Definitely wasn’t expecting you to see a show. I didn’t know the Righteous Brothers were even still touring …good for them. Enjoyable video as always Sir 😎😎😎
Anthony Yooooo 🙌. Always expect the unexpected from me. Just when you think you have me pegged, I pivot. Predictably unpredictable 🙋🏻♂️
I thought the 3 coffee beans, each signifying something unique, was ultra cool. Paying $10 was even cooler 😎
Bill Medley (G.O.A.T.!!!) has a new partner, Bucky Heard, who is terrific. Bobby Hatfield, sadly, passed away in 2003. Fortunately he lived long enough to see the duo’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
This is the only place I'll stay at when I'm in Vegas. The Boyd hotels and casinos used to be my favorite but they've gone down hill after COVID. Their buffet and midnight special is my favorite and their coffee is amazingly good.
I remember the Brent Musberger broadcast booth. I was listening live and looking into a 4-sided glass studio. Brent saluted me in his way to say hi. I watched almost the entire 2 hours but stayed at SP all day.🏈
What a great place yes yes! Can't believe the drink prices! Oyster bar, tequila bar, huge crab cocktail, prime rib, inexpensive show - I'm going!😃
South point is my favorite casino hotel they have free rodeo stuff all the time. The Mexican food place is called Baja Miguel’s they have lunch specials that are pretty good and come with a margarita. A lot of graveyard specials and weekly deals steak and shake has a happy hour
Elvis sang at least one of their songs regularly. He was backstage at one of their Vegas shows and walked across the stage, from one side to the other, and blew everyone’s mind. The crowd went nuts.
they told that story!
Right next to the outside entrance t the Sports Book there is a bench I used to love to sit on when I was going to get high. It had a beautiful view, especially at night. I called it the “Magic Bench”
I am a local and spent a week on the strip a few weeks ago and I cannot tell you how disappointed I was in EVERYTHING. From the workers who could have cared less about being there to prices so high they made my eyes water, I am done. I have never been more disappointed in the 20 years that I have lived here. South Point, however, never disappoints. The business that they do there is off the charts.
Love southpoint! We always get comped rooms/food. Michaels is incredible..but remember it isn't a steakhouse, it's a fine dining restaurant. Finally I love you don't have to bet maximum to get drinks!😊
This was the best! So glad you went to this place! I'm staying at M Resort while looking for a home in Vegas. Glad you went to the show and hope you do more of this!
South Point looks great value and some great dining to be had.
Why didn't you put the money you saved on "Red" on a roulette table? 😂❤
Can't wait! Is every Wednesday the regular timing for this series, James?
It has been mid week lately 😎
@@CoolistI’m excited about this direction you are taking. I totally believe people from all types of people, including the poor, deserve to feel spoiled in a Vegas vacation and it touches me to see you show people that they can make this happen in the way you know how.
What a great review! I just got home tonight from 3.5 days in Vegas and I was at South Point multiple times. It's a fantastic and thriving property!
Excellent review, I have been wanting to try this casino out. Your reviews are the absolute best....I can't wait to get back to Vegas, I may stay at South Point. I heard the $5 Video Poker pays out frequently, and it is worth a visit.......Also, I love that you are featuring live shows. Thank you!!!!
Stayed for 5 nights September 2023. One thing that i noticed in comparison to other LV properties that I’ve stayed at was the cleanliness of all areas of South Point Resort. They have the Red Shirt cleaning crew wiping down all public areas. The restrooms are clean, with dry, rubbish-free floors and dry sink counters!
Great review. Makes me want to get my hinny over there. Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊
You should!
LOVE IT! I do wish these Vegas hotels would put some umbrellas around the pool deck. You never disappoint James. Thanks.
This is the only casino I consider staying/playing at when I come to Vegas 2-3x/year. By far the best few days of relaxation and entertainment!
Great video that has introduced me to a new place that I can't wait to visit!!! I love places that take us back to the comfortable places that made you relax have fun and enjoy yourself. We bough a place in Sothern Maryland on the water and are trying to bring back the same vibe! Thanks for the info!
2 thumbs up! Solid review. I'm sold. Thank you sir. South Point here I come.
There's a fridge in your room as well.
Not a local, I live in Canada, but…..South Point is my favourite! I love the strip, don’t get me wrong but yeah!
Watching his videos we've gotten to know James. We know that he has a taste for the finer things in life. However, as many tourists are, he's tired of getting nickel-and-dimed everywhere he goes. South Point is a breath of fresh air and a reminder of what Vegas used to be.
Drinks at the pool are like 7 bucks and their really good...the gym is always empty and fresh and nice. M casino, down the road...same drink 40 ! Breakfast at SP is just about impossible, long lines Buzz down to M ..easy no line Breakfast or go to an off the Casino restaurant nearby, the Casino isn't a jail you can come and go, it's not the strip plenty of local places super close. Oh...parking at SP is awesome and free. MIGUEL'S Mexican for lunch is a hidden great deal, Noone wants to go up the staircase so it's empty lol. The buffet is so popular now its crowded to death the line wraps around the casino floor fahgetta bout it.. midnight steak n eggs at colorado Cafe $6.45 😋 nd don't tell me you're disappointed with the steak it's 6 bucks ya cheap skates!! Lolol
Finally! I’ve always wanted you to offer your perspective and attend shows/entertainment on properties! Would love future Vegas episodes to incorporate some reviews and thoughts on the unique shows on property or even other exhibits or attractions on site!
Hey you're letting out my secret. I'm an old guy been going to Vegas all my life. But fun Vegas is gone thanks to corporate greed. However South Point is great. I drive in from California and stop at South Point give my car to valet and go no further. Great prices. Race and sports books are great. Food is actually affordable and service is good. The Club is worth it. I just hope they don't change.
Southpoint AKA low-point is a good place to go just to get a room and then get away. If you are craps player do not waste your time here. There are better craps tables at an Indian casinos, as far as the slots in poker not too bad and Buffet you know whatever. Overall staff on the floor and service is great but I would say the crops is one of the worst in the industry and that is pretty much well-known if you like craps. They have no all tall small no fire bed know nothing it is literally that plus dealers trying to make your life hell. And unless they remodeled the rooms and you are on the side that gets direct sun in the morning, you will need to bring I covering otherwise you will be woken up is a joke. They hang the curtains the wrong, so they do not extend to the outcropping of the wall you must somehow magically get the curtain to touch the other wall. On a positive note housekeeping will give you tape😂😂
Good video. I'd like to make a day trip from the strip to South Point while in Vegas for several days. I wonder how much it costs to take a taxi from Mandalay Bay to South Point...anyone know?
Brooooo. Glad to see you back. Southpoint is my favorite. I agree with you on Vegas. It's really tragic now.
You missed one of the major attractions there albeit given the category but the Arena and Competition bowling alley in the back. You can go see all sorts of equestrian events for free there. And the USBC bowling alley is huge. It’s kind of for whoever is into that kind of stuff, but still even when you think you’ve seen it all there’s still more to see. The Budweiser Clydesdales stay there frequently and usually every year they bring them through the casino to pick the winner of the Super Bowl at the sportsbook.
