Thank you for all the support 🥰
I’ve been there before it’s a great place!
What time was it when you both went up to have dinner? ty
Cafe' LaPeePee for ms. rubbbie!!
With all the places you've stayed, will you PLEASE do a video on cheap, but still nice places to stay? I don't stay in my room much anywhere I go and I know on average rooms are usually around 100/125$ with the resort fees weekdays. But I'd be curious to see what your top 5-10 nice cheaper rooms on the strip are. I've seen some of your rooms and they're so gorgeous but I know I wouldn't really be in there that much.
Would love to see a video on Firefly Tapas. Food and sangria is amazing. There are 2 locations, one is right on Sahara.
The Strat itself is dope. The immediate surrounding area, not so much. Don't stray to the side streets and you'll be fine.
@@islandlifeforever dont wind up in Naked city lol behind the strat
@@islandlifeforever I was told by both hotel staff and uber drivers to not walk around behind The Strat and the surrounding streets around the casino. Especially at night. That if I was going out to the main strip during the evening, to take an uber. No exceptions. And if I was going out walking during the day, to walk on Las Vegas blvd, and that was it. I didn't have any problems, and I never felt in danger, but I also didn't test it. Also, there's just not a lot to do immediately around The Strat. It's sort of just out there by itself. You won't want to just wander around. Trust me.
@@OnlyOneNights lol las Vegas is not that dangerous it's about as dangerous as the jersey shore or Miami...the strat is within walking distance of a t shirt store a diner gas station the sahara resorts world Circus circus and a Denny's
@@OnlyOneNights absolutely correct.
I have strayed. I've been in way worse neighborhoods
Wow! Looks like The Strat found its way into the 21st century! When I visited there 20 years ago, it was so tired and old I couldn't figure out how they would ever survive with the newer hotels at the time that opened. Now that Resorts World is gaining steam and reviving the north end of the strip, more people will probably give Strat more business too.
yes, if i could check in, in less than 6 hours, I would
I booked a couple of nights at the Strat in April, so I'm glad to know it has your seal of approval.
Looks much improved! I spent my 21st birthday there 25years ago. Looks like I need to give it a second try. Thanks for posting.
The Strat was the first casino I stayed at in Vegas over a decade ago. Back then I paid like $35 all in pre-resort fees. If you don't mind catching the Duece to visit the rest of the strip I would stay there again.
Great video Ruby. In my opinion The Strat is the most unique property on the Las Vegas Strip. The Strat Tower is still the tallest structure in Vegas and is one of the tallest in the nation. The night view from the lounge and the deck are just incredible and you are missing out if you don't experience it on your Vegas trip. Loved the thumbnail too.
Tallest observation deck in the United States! I like the strat in the summer, the pool on the 24th floor actually is open at night as a bar venue and most pools close by 6 or 7 to get you to the casino and the shows.
The Strat being the last "true" casino on the strip, that is actually in Las Vegas. The other casinos on the strip are part of a different area which is called, Paradise. To please the touristic industry, they name it Las Vegas but locals know. That's how I found out.
You guys do such a great job with your videos! The music, editing, etc. Great job!
Jumped off the strat. It was the most thrilling experience I ever had. The room was really great I had. There is a infamously bad tower though that the rooms were drop dead awful and a sharp contrast to the rest of the property. As far as distance, yeah the monorail at Sahara runs to Mgm grand and the price is so cheap and it runs late soooo So it’s definitely workable!
nice!
This is definitely your best review video so far. No fillers only thrillers! The whole segment is so tight and informative. More like this!
This Gorgeous Woman is keeping us updated. Very much appreciated 🤎
You can get a 1 day Bus pass on The Duece. You can take it up and down the Strip and it even takes you to Downtown. I've stayed at the Strat years ago. I like the Hotel. Thank You for what you do!
Here I am working from home at 5am and your videos started coming on. I've watched this review a couple times and i've noticed I keep watching them because I always catch something i missed. Also, your voice is quite soothing when I work. lol Keep up the great work.
One of our favorite places to stay when we need an affordable trip. We first stayed there 3.5 years ago when our son turned 21 and had an excellent time. Utilizing the monorail at Sahara saves on Uber $$.
I love the bar at the top of the Strat. The best views in Vegas and really great atmosphere.
Glad you had a good time. We always liked the Stratosphere even before the remodel - the dark, open casino was always appealing to me. The rooms are on the smallish side, but well-priced and between the thrill rides and modest-priced shows, there is lots to do.
The Palace station hotel was nice even though it was remodeled
Great review Ruby! Props ro Mr. Ruby for his great cinematography. You two are a great team and I really appreciate your content. Keep up the great reviews!
That was the last place I stayed pre Pandemic! We loved it except the far distance. Loved the bars, slots, pool, Brunch with endless champagne and the observation deck!
Love this review!! Your outfits for this one were on point too! Those black heels for dinner and your outfit at the end are my new Vegas outfits inspo!
We’ve never even thought about going to The Strat. Definitely love that dinner and show package! -S
rubys most popular line "we need to get something to eat"
This is the perfect place if you're budget minded and you're going to be using The Duece for transportation. Unlike the other strip hotels, it's a short ride to downtown. Unlike the downtown hotels, it's a short ride to the strip.
Stayed there in 2016, it was pretty great for the price. I walked the Strip mostly, didn't really stay at the hotel much. I was told by hotel staff as well as pretty much every vendor on the Strip to avoid the side streets and the rear of the hotel, but other than that, I have no complaints about my stay there. Nice room, clean, and it seemed like the place as a whole was pretty well updated. At $30 bucks a night, I wasn't expecting that much, but it was a really nice place, even the "budget" rooms were pretty nice and clean.
I was there in 2016 as well! I agree with what you said. We just used the hotel to skeep and spent our time on The Strip. We paid $27 for the room!
@@Twobarpsi , I honestly didn't have any problems in or around the hotel, nor on the Strip. I was pleasantly surprised that the hotel room was really nice, especially for the price. It was a standard room, but it was as nice or nicer than rooms I have paid triple the price for. As far as the issues with the area behind or surrounding the hotel, I again didn't have any trouble. I never traveled too far off the Strip near the Strat, but I traveled off the Strip plenty near Circus Circus, which honestly seemed way more sketchy than around the Strat, and again, no problems. That's not to say that trouble couldn't happen in those areas, but I certainly didn't have that experience. Now I do know that behind the Strat there's quite the junkie population, but I didn't venture off the Strip far enough I guess. Like with everywhere you go, exercising a certain level of caution and being aware of your surroundings can mitigate a ton of issues. Usually if you don't act a fool, or go into places that give you a bad feeling, you're going to be fine.
Had dinner at Top of the World there over10 years ago! Still a very memorable experience!
Had lunch there few months ago. Food is good. Especially the pound cake dessert. Great views too.
And now they are charging a premium for a restaurant view table like eiffel tower.no thanks,its the point.
I used to stay in the Stratosphere alone from Scotland. I loved it you can also get buses up and down the strip and the bus stops are quieter than further down. The only reason I stopped staying here was the sketchy area outside x
DO NOT GO TO THIS HOTEL. This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. 1st they had the water cut off for 4 hours. 2nd they over charged my card after stating that they would accommodate me for the inconvenience FOR THE WATER BEING SHUT OFF. 3rd I had to get a new room key every time I left MY ROOM . 4th They are RUDE AND LIARS.
5TH NEVER CLEANED MY ROOM. 6TH THE POOL WAS ONLY OPEN FOR UNTIL 5PM. 7TH YOU WILL BE GREETED BY CRACK HEADS AND DRUG USERS WHEN GETTIN GOUT OF YOUR CAR TO GO CHECK IN. 8TH THE HOTEL IS FACING A condemned building in which the homeless has taken over. 9th the Strat Café servers was rude and not helpful or wanting to do their job.10TH THEY HAVE YOUNG GIRLS IN WHICH ARE SELLING THEMSELVES TO ANYONE THAT WILL PAY. YES, young girls selling themselves to tourist . They walk all floors and the casino all DAY AND NIGHT.
I am waiting to hear back from someone at Their Corp office to respond. If not i will write a review EVERYDAY TO ASSURE THAT EVERYONE THAT IS considering to go this hotel will re- think it.. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL TO HUMAN.

Loved my stay here!!
Good vid Ruby I like how you can spend a night there with dinner and a show
As a local. Strat was fun the other night. Casino was nice. Went to top. And rode big shot and enjoyed observation decks
My wife and had our 25th anniversary there. Phenomenal!. We both had the filet mignon and sides. They bought out some ice cream that was dipped in chocolate with an edible "Happy Anniversary" label on it. They treat you right at the Strat.
This place looks like a lot of fun. The sky jumping, shows, kind of a space needle type restaurant. I never really thought much about this hotel but it seems pretty cool and affordable.
The Strats original theme is the space needle based off the one in Seattle. It is higher as well
The strat is like mad Max...after you make it through the wasteland around it....the thunder dome ain't that bad.
Fun fact: the strat cafe used to be a diner , i stayed at the STRATousphere in 2018 i loved it & crazy to see how much has changed sin just 3/4 years
Yep, Roxy's Diner. Strat Café was still impressive however with good food 👏
@@dennisaugustine6544 Roxy's Diner was so good and the service was outstanding. MY wife has Celiac disease and they were very accommodating her special needs. We had breakfast there the whole time we stayed at the Strat and no matter who worked that day, same very good service.
Your soundtrack is always bumpin', I love your music choices.
Your intro just made the strat look phenomenal! Makes me want to go. Right. Now. I swear you need to sell them that 30 seconds for their best ad ever!!!
I was there a couple years ago and the diner had a $3.99 breakfast special and a $5.99 late night burger special. And the food was awesome. The sports bar was great too. Loved the sports book and the casino as well. If you don't mind catching a Lyft to the rest of the strip I would highly HIGHLY recommend this place. Its funny this was posted today because I just got a mailer from them yesterday offering me a room for $17/night between now and March.
I’m a relative newbie to your channel Ruby but loving what I’ve seen so far!
I’m glad I watched this one as I kinda thought that The Strat would be a low end type of place! Not so it would seem and I’d definitely have a look next time I’m in Vegas!
Great vlog! Cheers!👍😊👏👏👏🏴🇺🇸
Thanks for sharing, Ruby! It's amazing that somehow you always seem to grab an elevator that is always empty :) That's a perk in itself :)
DO NOT try their budget room. I did that once thinking why not and I ended up taking bed bugs home. I left my backpack on the bed and that’s where they crawled in. The room is worse than motel 6. Do not do it please! Cheap room ended up costing me over $1k in damages. 🤦🏽♀️
Yes the worst hotel ever
The Strat seems like such a cool place to visit with a great dinner time view. I have to do it next time along with the bungee jump, or was it a zip line type ride? It looked like it was fun whatever it was! Great video!
Top of the World is hands down my favorite restaurant ever! A must every time I'm in Vegas. Love it!!
The food is subpar at best. Where are you eating, normally?
Editing on this is ON POINT!!!!
Cut ins, zoom ins, titles and angles are all superb.
Proper broadcast quality stuff, I assume Mr Ruby is a professional 😎😎😎👍
Yes, high quality all around - camera work, editing, sound, etc. Very impressive Mr. Ruby. We realize it takes a lot of work and we all appreciate it. Thank you!
Fun Fun! Thanks for taking us along!
June 2022, reached strat at 12:30 am, stood in the check in line and finally got my room at 6:45 am. Yes ! we stood in the check in line for 6 hours. NEVER ever staying here even if that does not happen anymore. It is also such a dump.
Such a dump is right
GREAT videos 👍 you have a great speaking voice ! I do like that you harp on signing up for the rewards program. Anyways next on my list is the strat THANKS atleast for dining
Love the Strat. Always have a nice comped suite and limo which lets me live like the other half and feel like a million bucks. Their gaming is great and they have fantastic slot tournaments.
I always enjoy and appreciate your reviews. You and Mr Ruby do a great job of making them together. Thank you so much! Re: the strat's location though, one additional important thing worth mentioning for those who haven't stayed there before, is that unfortunately it is really not located in a safe area to walk around outside the property at night, especially on the western side. Of course absolutely fine inside though, or if willing to uber/lyft or taxi to other areas. On the upside, it's quite a good budget property to stay in for those who wish to do a mix of down-town and the northern half of the strip, seeing as it's about half way between each.
Ruby and Mr. Ruby, this video is absolutely amazing. You guys have such an artistic touch to everything and you’re just the cutest!
Hello kamila how are you
Hi Ruby love it watching from Minnesota
That intro was fire AF !!! 🔥🔥
Reminded me of the old NBC show Las Vegas from the late 2000s
Thanks for all your great videos! I haven't been to the Strat in 20 years (when the name was twice as long) and looks like I need to go back and check it out again.
Not on my radar hotel to stay, but after this review will definitely be considered. Nailed it as always. Thanks again Ruby and Mr. Production. 😉
Hubby and I have celebrated 3 wedding anniversaries at the Top of the World...awesome 360 degree views while dining!! Night views are the best.
I just found you, I've watched your Ceasars, Oil, now the Strat!
I'm going to stay at the Strat!
Thank You!

Intros Are Off The Hook! Keep it up Team Ruby!
Cool review. Editing is awesome. Very helpful and fun to watch! Thanks!
Travel Ruby! I just have to say I LOVE all your videos! I’ve been to LV 3 times- 4th will be in May- and your videos are so helpful! You’ve help me pick hotels, restaurants and things to see. Maybe one of these trips I’ll bump into you and Mr. Ruby ☺️
Once again awesome review. I went this summer to the “Top of the world “ restaurant. It was one of our highlights of the Vegas trip. I didn’t know the strat renovated some rooms. I’ve never stayed there. I will have to try it. Thanks Ruby. Love y’all ❤️
The Strat was a freaking DUMP when I went a few years ago, but now it looks so AWESOME! The parking lot and surrounding area is very rough so definitely use uber to travel somewhere. I will have to revisit again :)

I really like the Strat.. I used to stay there for EDC. However, I haven't been since it was renovated. Thanks for the vid
I stay there often, I like the BLVD Suite, it has a nice soaking tub in a huge bathroom. They have Netflix on the TV's, too. We always rent a car so the location isn't an issue & they also offer free valet parking. Great coverage!!
We stay in the Grand suite and like the extra room. We took our adult sons out and it was nice to have a big living room and dining room that we could all gather in and when the drunk men stayed up talking and I went to bed and didn't hear a thing lol
We love to go to Level 107 for happy hour. 2 for 1 drinks, 1/2 price apps. You buy one or 2 of them and that is filling if you do not normally eat big. The roasted red pepper fondue is fab, and you get extra bread. No need for reservations and you take the express up to lounge, so you do not wait in the long line for observation level. Plus after dinner you walk up stairs to the observatiom deck. For the same price as the tickets to the observation deck you can have a great meal with a great view
Merry Christmas Ruby. You have thee best Vegas content. See ya in January
You and your husband put out great shows...Thank you H
Really good job with this, Ruby! Strat it is :)
Thank you for sharing. We live in MN and have 90% of the time stayed downtown at the Golden Nugget. Been going to LV for over 30 years. Stayed at Paris once. My husband stayed an extra night but I checked out and went to the Nugget. I couldn’t win anything at Paris. I only ate bread and cheese, and crepes. I not big on French food. Stayed at Mirage when it was new. The rooms were nothing special. Didn’t win there either. Stayed at the place across from MGM while it was being built. Not New York, New York not across Las Vegas Blvd. but the side street. Their pool area was also me and had some luck there. My favorite was the Golden Nugget when Steve Wynn owned it back in the day. We’d come out 2-3 x’s a year and I’d win $5 - $10,000 almost every trip. This time thanks to you we are going to try
I love this video! I've always had great memories since I spent my 21st at the start. You can park for free if you live in CA and you can Park at wynn or Venetian for free if you drive into Vegas.
Thanks, Ruby. Appreciate your valuable info. Keep us informed. Have a great New Year 2022!!! ~Greetings from San Antonio, TX.~
Love your personality, you have such a positive upbeat attitude! Love your videos!
Loved top of the world!! Food, service and views were great. Totally worth it
I love the Strat ! It just it is the location is what gets me ! I need to come back . Not been back since the renovation though.
The sunset shots look gorgeous. I enjoyed the awesome tour of Stratosphere.
Hello. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work.
The start rocks! We are going to be there soon, can't wait for PT wings lunch
Strat
I never really considered The Strat as an option when planning my trip, but after watching this I think I'm going to have to take a closer look at it. Also the bumper music in this video was slammin lol
THE WORDS VEGAS AND CHEAP DO NOT MIX RUBY! U KNOW THIS!
Hey it’s Julie and Tony from Columbus, we ran into you on your trip the other day, we love the four nights at the Strat also our room was a lot smaller than yours in this video but never the less we did not mind it at all we did take the bus a lot, so I agree I love your review
We followed up with two nights at the Cosmo just because we go where the comps are when we are there , keep the videos coming we just love watching them!
In-room coffee is the one thing all resorts should do. Hell, I’d even rent one for my stay. My wife stood in line for 45 minutes at MGM back in August.
We’re sitting here and are taking about what a good job you do with your videos. Thanks for the entertainment!
You make the most awesome infomercials that I've ever watched!!
Last time there we went with a couple that had never been to Vegas. Nothing like having to literally step over passed out people, broken glass, and needles to make an impression. All of the tower attractions and shopping, and that was all they remembered…oh and this was broad daylight too!
The Strat was where I stayed during my only trip to Vegas. I wouldn't really call it on the strip, ok technically it is but I remember it costing a $20 taxi cab ride to the heart of Vegas. But I did have a good time there. At the time it was a very good deal compared to hotels like the Bellagio. I didn't mind the room being small. I only slept in it. The rest of the time I was gambling up and down the main part of the strip.
Great review of The Strat! 👍 I haven’t been there since it was Bobby Stupak’s Vegas World but will definitely visit next time I’m in Vegas.
I am a new subscriber and am thoroughly enjoying your reviews. You are definitely the best reviewer I've seen; honest, fun and genuine.
If I ever go to Vegas I plan on doing the sky jump at the Strat 😳
Just came across your site. I lived in Summerlin for 9 yrs …..
No travel plans to go back anytime soon, I just like watching some of the places you go to-
kinda makes me wish I did more touristy stuff when I lived there 🤷🏻♂️❕❔
I like that you don’t over-hype anything that you are doing in the land of smoke and mirrors 🤨….
Definitely digging your videos…. Very down to earth and cool vibe …… will subscribe for sure 👌🏻❗️❗️❗️
Great review! Your videos are wonderful to watch! You and Mr Ruby got it goin on!💐
I have only been to Vegas once, and that was for a wedding, so I feel like I missed out on a lot. The Strat looks really cool
You’re so pretty😍😍😍. Keep it up, love the content!!!!
Ooo looks nice. Used to stay there when I went to NAB at convention center- cheap but not too shabby.
Hello from Toronto! We loved our visit to the Strat! Can't beat the view from the tower!
Hey guy's thanks for the tour! Very well done !
Awesome review loved it! I would definitely try to stay at the Strat. I remember when they built it!
This is one of your Best Video I like that you covered everything about the Strat so much information awesome awesome
Hey Ruby, I have that same shirt in white!! But I don't watch any reruns, I'm not even sure I like the show anymore, its the memories.
What are you drinking while playing slots?
Rotating bar at the top is one of my favorite things to do in Vegas. Worth the hassle of getting there.
Top of the World was a fantastic way to end my first trip to Vegas. The meal was the best that I’ve had in a while. To this day, I still dream of my meal (which was the Sea Bass). Truly amazing!
Helpful review Ruby!! Going back to Vegas in 2023 Checking your other reviews. Leaning towards the Luxor now, but we will look further. Thanks, we might have bumped into you at Ceasers last week and didnt even know it. Cheers
Your reviews are the best. You give the most complete info of the LV reviewers. Why doesnt some big corp buy surrounding properties?
Went to Sammy Hagar & Circle concert last weekend, awesome venue, fun casino, great music, service,food. Def going to stay here next time in town
I wanted to go out for that soo bad! My hubby couldn't get off work and said I couldn't go alone lol
David Lee Roth
@@harrismd8005 good man.Smart too. I am not afraid but the strat alone...nope.
now that looks like a great place to go.its fantastic
Thanks for the review! They are owned by the group that owns The Aquarius & Edgewater in Laughlin; looks like they are keeping their word about renovations.
