      The music concerts interest me the most and the new and old restaurants I want to try out. Also the adventure of new Hotels and the Autominous hotel suites you can rent long term looks like a nice option with nice amenities. Thanks Dave and Tonya.❤

    I think people have had it with the gouging prices in Vegas. Tourists been saying it for years. In addition to that, the ever increasing costs to park at the Casino’s automatically shut out a lot of the 2,000,000 residents that don’t visit the strip much anymore except on rare occasions. Who lives here wants to deal with the strips congestion to pay $25 for parking and $50 for a hamburger meal.

      We used to go twice and sometimes three times a year. No more. Everything is as you said, expensive and not really that great. People are slobs and behave poorly for the most part. Hotels are dirtier than ever before and service folks are over-whelmed and can't seem to keep up. Food is okay but way over-priced. So we're going to stop going so often. Maybe once every three-four years.

When the machines announced a winner casino goons would rush the machines unplug them telling the winners the slot machine had malfunctioned. There are dozens of stories like this. At one time I was interested to go there but not now. The fees and the cheating people out of winnings turned me off.

    I can’t believe people (including casinos) don’t understand the up and down in revenue: Revenue was drastically down during COVID (duh), and recovered afterward. The worrisome thing is, even with pent up demand (from covid), it appears that revenue has not caught up with pre-COVID levels. One would expect the last two years to be supercharged, and now slacking off - but thats not the case. It’s been good the last two years, but not (given pent up demand), good enough. Whatever the casinos think they are doing to raise demand- it’s not working.

    We went in the 80's when it was still affordable! My fathers generation had the best time though! Back then it was a magical place in the 60's.The best shows and incredible buffets! Most times the hotels included the buffets, and they gave you coupons for the other casinos. It was still affordable in the 80's and then they started to gauge everything!!
    They are so greedy and have really earned the name of "sin city"!
    Show tickets at the lower end are in the hundreds of dollars and thousands in the high end!!
    If I go to a casino now,it won't be Las Vegas!!
    I would support the Indian run ones!
    Though it's still expensive you don't feel as robbed!And I like the idea of supporting all the Tribes.

    Born and raised here in Vegas, and it has gone downhill. Not only did the housing prices skyrocket recently, which led to many of my neighbors relocating, the strip is not only dirty and run-down with homeless people and drug addicts everywhere, everything is too expensive to bother dealing with all the traffic that leads to - overly expensive parking lots. I stay on my side of town up in Summerlin and stick to places like the Red Rock casino and regular restaurants. (Not to mention the ridiculous non-stop road work that doesn’t seem to actually progress at all, but makes the traffic and attitudes worse down that way.) Debating whether to sell my property and escape, or keep it as a rental… and escape.

We don't gamble, we're there just to see the sights esp the newest casino/attractions and usually we go to Chinatown or other places outside of the strip for good cheap eats. This time we're staying in a resort a mile away from the strip, reasonable nightly price & free parking. We do what we can to cut cost.

Maybe back in the day, the waitresses, but later....THE BUFFET. Yet these idiots could not be bothered to bring it back. Instead, thy created a food court and filled it with overpriced, underwhelming eateries. Their games are sup par even for the strip and abysmal compared to offerings at local casinos.

I saw GM light pickups priced at $45-50K and you don't even get a V6 or V8 with them! Saw Honda Accords priced at $45-50K. Toyota full size SUVS went as high as $65K. Despicable. And the stealerships are NOT selling cars. This year so far, I have seen only three of the Ford Maverick trucks, which Ford's CEO claimed was going to "revolutionize the market for affordable trucks." Nope. The customers are walking away from deals because every stealership slaps them with a $4,000 markup when their custom truck finally arrives. Of course the customers got angry and walked off. The trucks just rot away on the lots. And that's just one small part of the economy. Housing is out of control with prices double and TRIPLING. Yes, my parent's old house was put on the market last year and the person they sold it to wanted THREE times what it was worth. It isn't even 990 sq feet and the owner wanted over $300K for it! I doubt it sold.
