Every hotel in Vegas has kids.

Vegas used to be the place where you could go to get away from kids.

While every word quoted is true, the overall post is false.

Every place has kids but some have more. And it's not hard to figure out - the ones with wave pools have way more than the ones with Picasso galleries.

And it's been that way since the median 2p2er was born.

It also depends on what you mean by kids. These days 21 years Olds are kids to me

You could never get away from those kids in Vegas. But yeah, would be nice if you could.

I conclude this post is factual...due to thinking about it. With that said, I think you know what I meant.

You book a rental car on December 15 for pick up on January 15. Nevada imposes a "rental car facility charge" of $5/day beginning January 1. Think you're paying it?

If your argument is you should pay the tax rate and resort fees in effect when you book, is your argument that the purchase has been completed at that point? If so, I assume you also agree that you shouldn't be able to cancel for free, right? Very deceitful and unethical for you to back out, no?



Yep, training the justice court judges and their staffs, including their 80 hours of new judge school when appointed/elected.
Not at all.Hotels list their cancellation policies as do car rental places
If I cancel free during the allowable period they came up with I'm doing nothing wrong.

I've sometimes cancled too late and had to pay some kind of fee (sometimes a set amount, sometimes the first days rate) I see nothing wrong with this at all.


Some rental car places.chsrge a much lower fee if you pay up front.the catch is you can't cancel or you pay for the reservation (or sometimes just a fee) if you cancel.thats perfectly reasonable and fair.

If they forced me to rent a GPS or car seat I don't want we would have a good comparison to resort fees.

As for the tax rate going up after booking-im not sure if you pay the old rate or new rate.either way I can't be mad at the casino for a forced tax increase they can't control.i vaguely remember seeing something at the begining of the year hotel taxes were going up on a certain date so if you booked a stay after that date you would pay the higher rate.this was for MGM protorties so other casinos may have done it differently.

You pay the new rate for taxes. In fact, that just happened to me in LV last month. The resort fee had also increased, but they honored their original quote for that.

That makes sense, since the tax rate is not under their control. With some exceptions (due to asking, etc), most hotels seem to follow this standard:

Room rate - rate locked in at booking
Resort fee rate - rate locked in at booking
Resort fee waived - current tier status at check-in
Tax rate - current rate at check-in

I just stayed at a hotel that charged 25 bucks for a "resort charge" but it included a free glass of wine or draft beer of choice at their lounge for each night you stayed... plus two free bottles of water as well. Not too shabby since I'm use to just the free wifi as your "perk".

Too bad I got dinged 30 bucks to park my car... but to be honest 30 dollars for parking isn't that bad outside of Vegas.
