Ok seriously, I'm literally still in the room.  I'm using Stratosphere's wi-fi [which btw, I have to pay $11.99 for.... that's like half of what I paid for the room, lol] to write a review on what a shithole this place is.  hahaha I feel so bad for being a cheap ass and not paying to stay at the Mirage like I did last year, but seeing as I'm on vacation for a week this year [compared to 2 days last year] I had to scrimp a bit.  \n\nOkay so we got here at about 930pm last night... it took us more than half an hour to check in.  Not because they're super busy [I mean technically, it looked like they were busy, but only becuz most of the registration ppl are incompetent] but because they refused to open another window.  If you see 20 ppl in line, and you only have 2 ppl open, and there are 2 ppl CHILLING on the side, you freaking open another window.  Gosh damnit.  I work in customer service and I swear, my butt would have been fired a long time ago if I just hung around while my customers were waiting.  So anyway, we finally get to the front, and thankfully our lady was wonderful and kind and everything.  She even put us in a \"high\" room with a \"view\" without charging us anything extra.  BUT...\n\nSo we get to the room, and I'm kinda bummed cuz its RIGHT next to the elevator, so every few minutes you hear a chug-chug-chug... but that's alright, at least I don't have to hoof it all the way down a long corridor.  But when we entered the room, umm EWW.  First of all, I've stayed in a lot of shitty hotels in my lifetime [I've traveled through Europe and Asia, both of which are not necessarily known for their 5 star hotels] but this was the first time I've ever seen something this gross.  There was this weird stench that just stuck to the room, there was PISS IN THE BATHROOM, the bed had not been made [it literally looked like ppl had just gotten out of bed], and their was garbage in the garbage can.  Oddly enough, the towels looked brand new and it had new soaps and stuff.  So someone started cleaning [?] and decided not to finish?  I don't know.  All I do know is that at 1030pm [and after almost 9 hours of straight driving], I just want to get into my room, put my shit away, and go to sleep.  No can do... I had to call the front desk, and I was informed that we'd either have to stay in that room or get switched into a room with 2 queen beds on a low floor.  WTF...  My fiance and I didn't really feel like sleeping in separate beds [and having to switch rooms the next day] so we agreed to have housekeeping come in and clean the room.  BUT what really irked me was there was no offer of any compensation [usually, this kinda bs would come with like a comp meal or an upgraded room], NO APOLOGY, nothing.  Total BS.  Once again, fineeeeeeeeeeee customer service.  NOT.\n\nSo anyway, what else sucks about this place... Oh yes, they only give you two towels and they're super threadbare and their cleanliness is questionable.  After attempting to dry myself with one of these I realized it wasn't thick enough to dry both my body and my hair.... so my fiance called housekeeping for some extra towels.  They said that they would drop them off when they came to service our room.  When we got back to our room later that afternoon, our old towels were gone, and we had new towels.  BUT WE STILL ONLY HAD 2 TOWELS.  OMFG.  hahaha Whatever,  I totally give up.  \n\nLike I always say.... you get what you pay for. =/
