What did you think sucked about GN?
Well, I checked in about 11pm about 4 years ago. Had reserved a non-smoking South tower room. Clerk told me no non-smoking rooms were left in south tower so I asked for a non-smoking room in North Tower. He said no. I asked for a smoking room in north tower. He said no. So, off to our smoking South Tower room. The room absolutely reeked of smoke, the wallpaper was peeling off, the carpet was all stained, the bathroom was moldy. But, I did have a strip view.
Two days later we checked out and moved over to Bill's. Asked for non-smoking strip/Bally's view. Clerk at Bill's said no non-smoking rooms left but knocked $10 per night off the rate then said, go check out the room and if you don't like it we'll come up and spray and if you still don't like it, we'll move you first chance we get. The room was very nice at Bill's. Noisy but that's what you get when you're right on top of strip.
The whole attitude was different at Bill's. Bill's made me feel welcome.
