Could they not have sent someone to clean your room? Customer service died sometime during covid, so sad.

[@thenotoriousgryyn342]

No, more like these casinos lost tons of people during the pandemic, and the never came back because they found jobs with higher wages and better benefits. Thus the casinos do not have enough employees to clean properly, some casinos only clean the rooms once every three days, restrooms are left soiled, food and used condoms are left on and under beds, etc,. Until the casino owners shell out more money to keep employees and bring more in, the sanitary conditions will only get WORSE.

[@juliec9993]

My daughter and myself stayed at the Flamingo last year and the room was filthy. I took pictures of the dirty chase, hair on the toilet, stains all over, clipped nails on a chair. It was disgusting. We called down to the front desk and said we wanted a clean room. They said that they didn’t have any vacancies. I then took the kpictures and took them down to the desk and asked for a manager . When the manager came I showed them the pictures. We got a different room right away. Don’t let them tell you that they have no a clean room to give you, they do.

[@SASA413]

Hey Jacob! I loved the Harrah's video, it made me glad I cancelled my NYE, 1 wk reservation. Hopefully, you found someone in the corporate office that cared enough to see your video that was packed with very constructive criticism. Your insight about Caesars Rewards, nickel and diming, etc, reinforced my rethinking staying at any Caesars property and cutting way back on my usage of their credit card. Thanks for having the backs of all your viewers. It's great having someone like you, with your knowledge and expertise, making Vegas far more enjoyable, and helping us all save time and money. Keep up the great work!

[@williamhiland4378]

Jacob, that's just a brutal place. You can always count on Caesars to run a property down and not be clean. The Rio comes to mind. The prices on everything seemed crazy with nothing to back it up. In other words, if I'm going to get fleeced I want a great hotel experience. The 6/5 blackjack sucks. I would never consider staying there and this presentation reinforces that. Nice work!

[@alyonapetrova694]

I was in Planet Hollywood this past weekend. I had used the tub. I went to drain the tub and heard “gurgling” in both sinks and toilet. Within seconds, water, filthy smelly water gushed out of all sinks and toilet. The smell and filth was ungodly. I called the hotel operator and it took maintenance 6 hours to clean the room. Upon checkout, I was charged a $299.99 cleaning fee. I called my casino “host” and had to debate it with him and the on duty manager. Diamond Plus. Caesar’s is rotten. No more gambling at Caesar’s.

_Two things come to mind. The first being the fact that long before Harrah's was sold to Vici Properties ran by Caesar's Entertainment, it was a premier establishment(I preface Harrah's Lake Tahoe which was once a five star, five diamond property. Heck Harrah's Reno was also a well ran property, especially in the Housekeeping Department)! The second thing is William Fisk Harrah would be rolling over in his grave knowing his name was being tarnished by how his properties were being ran, starting with room cleanliness!

The grounds all outside front and back it was so dirty dead leaves everywhere stairs cracked falling apart fountains have cracks leaking. the pools were nice Ill say that. Now the next year we stayed at the updated rooms at tropicana it was awesome. THe front desk workers check in check out were so nice. Our room was so nice and clean. THe pool was so much fun nice workers there. Nice workers in the restaurants in the casino at the bars and in the stores.

[@cwestates3162]

Jacob, I moved to Vegas in 2021 and enjoy watching you and the crew of Vegas KZbinrs. I have been coming to Vegas for all of my adult life, more than 30 years, and one of the things that astounds me is the lack of pride that people have in the jobs that they do, and how overworked and undervalued people are these days. It just really shows in hotels, restaurants and the service industry in general. I don't know how we work our way out of this dilemma. Thank you for not sugar coating the deficiencies. Channels like yours are part of the solution. They provide a glimpse into the shoddy conditions at these businesses, and when and if demand softens it will force companies to pay attention to the small details that are currently being ignored. $400+ for a two night stay in a place like this is criminal. I've patronized Bobby Flay's high end restaurants for years, but seeing what his brand is putting out, and the prices being charged, will keep me away. Keep on fighting the good fight!!

I realized the exact same thing about three months after moving to Las Vegas. Sadly this is the home of "work to" culture. Everyone "works to" the minimum standard they have to in order to keep their poorly paying jobs. Employers have no incentive to promote or give raises and employees have no incentive to go above and beyond. Its a vicious cycle....

If resorts paid the staff and lower level management more, these resorts would be able to pick from a better talent pool and therefore have better service all around.

Jacob - My favorite part of this video was your interaction with the children at the pool! It is sad how bad cleanliness has become since COVID. It does not seem as though ANY hotel/resort has tried to keep things as clean as they were prior. I you could only see some places I have stayed at in foreign countries, you would never stay there! Thank you for keeping us up to date on various places throughout the city. It has been a couple of years since I have visited, and I am only a hop, skip, and a jump (in Phoenix) away. I am upset how Las Vegas has become and doubt it will be anytime soon before I visit again.

[@jei-has-thoughts]

Hi Jacob, long time listener, first time caller here. I just stayed at Harrah's recently during the week leading to memorial day weekend. Since it was a last minute thing, my hotel of choice was fully booked and my backup place only books 2 night stays or longer. Harrah's was my last minute solution. I booked through the Harrah's website and had no problems booking or finding my confirmation email. I arrived early and was not charged a fee for it, though I will say DO NOT waste your time checking in by yourself. All the guests that arrived at the same time I did all had issues with the self check in/out machines, so just get in line and from the get go. Trinity was also the lady who helped me check in and she is super sweet and very professional! I booked a standard room just like the one in the video but my experience was completely different to Jacob's. The bathroom was clean and well stocked, though the shampoo/ body wash dispenser was also leaking like in the video. The room I had was clean and everything was in its rightful place, so I'm not sure if they stuck you in whatever they had, because even the other room I booked for the person coming with me on the trip was clean, and this person is a snob when it comes to cleanliness. We even saw the lady that was cleaning the rooms the day we were checking out and she was cleaning very diligently. I'm definitely not trying to undermine your experience, I just want to offer another more recent experience at Harrah's. It was not my favorite hotel, but as a last minute stay, it was great.

We had the same housekeeper for the whole month we stayed she only had one day per week off, so we made sure she got a great tip when we checked out we gave it to her personally as we found out that the housekeeping manager takes all the tips and only gives a percentage to them.

Hopefully the casinos reward these folks for their efforts because it's these people that make people rebook.

[@kathys3412]

100% agree with how your first impressions with the check in process can really shape your stay. My first trip to Vegas was July 2016 and I stayed at the Luxor. I wanted something cheap since it was my first time and I didn't have a ton of money. Holy crap.. I was in line to check in for 2 HOURS. And I'm disabled and walk with a cane. I was in absolute agony and was so tired that when I got to my room I just collapsed and went to bed. Absolutely horrible. I watched and the next day the check in was even longer!! Thankfully since then I've stayed at Luxor, NYNY, Bally's(Horseshoe) and Excalibur and I've never had a crazy check in like that again. Even going back to Luxor 6 months later it was better. But I'll never forget the two hours in line to check in and how much pain I was in.. and how much I was thinking if that was how all of Vegas was going to be then perhaps it was a mistake to go. It definitely started my trip and my first trip ever, on the wrong side.

I just stayed at Harrah's last week. I did what you suggested and asked (nicely) if there was any chance for an upgrade. They did! Upgraded to a suite!. Suite was clean, well kept and always looked after the 4 days I was there. Staff were amazing. Had a massage at the Spa, and they were also amazing. From this video and others, I was not expecting much...but was pleasantly surprised. Loved my stay. 🙂 Only downside was that, when I signed up for the Rewards....didn't give me much; except 10.00 in free play. No discounts on resort fees or any other discounts.

Oh gross! Back in the old days of Vegas, Harrah’s was a high-class place. But that was decades ago. You are a much more forgiving than I.

Hey! Love your videos and reviews. Used to clean houses with my grandma when younger and love the attention to detail. If you ever wanted a side hustle or to help out the hotels they may comp or pay for the advice or if you had time even instruction to their management on how to clean through a room effectively and efficiently. Used to be a manager and it's something that I know I would appreciate as having someone who can help train your staff doesn't just help the one unhappy guest, but will prevent more unhappy guests in the future so tremendous value if you're able to give your time to them for a proper walk through.

As for the room experience, i had a similar experience at RIO. My original room reeked of weed, so they required me to go all the way back down to registration and wait yet ANOTHER half hour in line to request a second room. Fortunately the second room was clean and nice.

[@chicagokong]

Great review, thx for all the info!

[@IndyGuy65]

When I stayed at Harrah's back in 2009-2010 best thing was the location center Strip next to Carnival Court. Rooms were much cleaner then. Great video Jacob, I will pass on Harrah's.

[@kingsqueak2221]

I booked a room at Harrah's a couple years back, it had hard rubber tile in the room, the bed, a wobbly floor lamp as the only light in the room and a broken chair (one of the legs was kicked in) and that was it. It was worse than most hostel accomodations, may as well have been a YMCA room. It was the worst room I ever had in Vegas. When I asked for a different room they were indifferent and just blew me off. I'd never stay there again. The Flamingo has always been consistent for me for the dollar for a cheap on strip room.

Jacob my man love the videos I travel a lot too and just like you I notice everything in these hotel rooms.

[@davidharris2657]

Housekeeping in Vegas has gone downhill fast .Don't know if it's staff shortages or they're told to do just bare minimum . Read trip advisor reviews of all Caesar's properties and the Tropicana . One thing i always do is check the sheets and between the mattresses .

[@joeoneil6517]

Great review. Thank you

[@JacobslifeinVegas]

You're welcome!

[@HarumiAida]

Jacob. At least outside of the the hotel room!!! Harrah‘s restaurant and gaming activities was a pleasant experience for you. Harrah‘s outdoor pool was nice also.

[@rockyvilla1428]

Nice work! Sad to see how Caesars properties need better customer service and better cleaning service!!!!🙁

[@lisastace5813]

Harrahs used to have a nice dinner buffet, but thats all I went there for! I certainly wouldn't include it on any future trips Great video Jacob

[@jp6603]

Fully understand your issues with checkin. Earlier this year I noted many of the same issues at Paris, another one of their properties. Sorry to hear it may be problematic with more than one LV Ceasars property. Stayed in New Oleans several times thus far and did not have any problems. Front desk was well staffed and no machines.

[@GasUQuick]

Jacob, thanks for the honest review. I always considered the best thing going for Harrah's and The Linq was location and value. It was like a bit of Downtown LV in a great location on the strip. Looks like Ceaser's is just draining cash from the property, When will they announce an implosion and another sports arena being built on the land?

[@beckyjackson7755]

Wait until you try check-in at Flamingos! It's all kiosks. Long lines!

[@officialghetty]

The step dad role !!! Let’s gooooo

[@joshstinnett1930]

Jacob thanks for keeping everyone updated on all things Vegas! The girlfriend and I will be back on September. Hopefully we will run into you and buy you a drink or 3.

[@kkellybui3540]

We just got back from Vegas 3 days ago. We will never come back to Vegas again. It’s very crowded on Thursday night. We could barely move on the side walk of the strip. Homeless and drug addicted zombie are everywhere on the sidewalk of the strip. Don’t eat buffet at Wynn. It’s way overpriced $80 per person including tax for dinner on Thursday afternoon and the foods are terrible. The snowcrab are very small and most of the foods are cold and hard.

[@pamelagreen475]

Had a similar experience when we stayed at Caesar’s in April. Stains and markings on every wall, ripped carpet and along the bed frames, dust and dirt buildup everywhere. Check in process was a nightmare; didn’t get to our room until almost 6:00 after using the mobile check in earlier that day as well as their express check in kiosks. The full service check in line looked to be at least an hour or more long wait. Heck, the express check in line ended up being 20+ minutes the first time we stood in line and again the second time in the same line another 45 minutes waiting. When you try to speak with an actual person unless you’re a higher tier status they just brush you off. I will never stay at another Caesar’s property again. Staying at the Venetian when we visit in July.

[@stevenrodden7491]

Stays at Caesars comp. Rooms at Paris an Horseshoe, both times cleaning not good at either. No longer comp coffee machine. Tables mainly $25 weekday. Going to comp @ MGM see if it's better.

[@cochice1977]

The oyster bar in Harrahs is a hidden gem….and I’m not tipping the cashier.

[@IPANoah]

Boyds room comps include resort fee. And damn sold out on a Sunday night, no reason they don't feel the need to clean better or waive resort fee on a comp stay.

[@vtvincent4893]

I hate to say it, but a room we had at Harrah's AC was pretty much identical. Someone threw a drink at the wall by the desk, they (poorly) wiped the wall above the desk and left everything that was out of first glance still on the wall under it. It's obvious based on where those stains are that people absolutely trashed that place. :(

[@rogerrosen2323]

they take a deposit and you lose it if you make a mess not worth it

[@jeffnoble9757]

Tip bring your own pillows I've played at every casino on strip Harrah's piano bar is free and lots of fun, carnival court however have con people hassling you with CDs pictures with people in Halloween outfits of course for money, I like Harrah's Casino and I find the people are friendly there

[@IEraiderfan]

Thanks Jacob for the video review stay safe 👍🏼

[@theawfulgambler]

Looks like you’re going to make a great father dude! The big smile on your face at the end :)

[@jakesprake]

We saw Big Elvis in the Piano Bar, he was superb and it was free too.

[@quonelleopunui4237]

Thank you for sharing, Very interesting. That's the 2 main points that I look at when staying at a hotel.

[@shonta]

🏨 I'd be out of that room & in another hotel's room in a nice looong bath bomb bath in a snap. No refund? Keep it! D.i.s.g.u.s.t.i.n.g. My fav part of your vlog...swimmimg & playing with those kids, especially Zymere(sp?). I bet you made their day. Fantastic job as always on these vlogs! 🛎️💙👍

[@JacobslifeinVegas]

Thank you Shonta!

[@M..D2002]

Just love when u do these videos your great at them

[@drcollumdc]

I agree with whatever Shonta says.

[@Emotionalintel582]

That’s pretty gross! I’m very particular about my room being clean and sanitized. In fact I do sanitize before I use anything in our room. Liking this episode for sure!

[@eddieweiss192]

Good watch always informative I plan on heading back to Vegas in November ❤️‍🔥

[@magicwv]

Moral of the story, avoid all Caesars properties like the plague.

[@DixiePokerAce]

Some MGM properties are no different. It ain't just Caesars.

[@KenB1963]

I stayed at Caesars in their Octavius room, facing the pool. Awesome room! I can't share your opinion.

[@JacobslifeinVegas]

I wouldn't say that. I thought Horseshoe was a good stay, especially for the price.

[@magicwv]

@@JacobslifeinVegas Caesars properties always charging for early check-in, even when you are 15min away from their 4pm check-in time is ridiculous. The concierges can’t even override the early check-in charge on the kiosks. I’ve never been asked to pay more at any MGM property and have always gotten my room before noon. And also that comp they gave you is absolutely insulting… $10 slots and $10 food… wtf?!
