text: Do yourself a huge favor and stay elsewhere during your Vegas visit The Stratosphere is at the asshole of the strip Nothing around it except ghetto and the SLS We made the mistake of booking here because it was reasonably close to the convention center Take a shuttle or cab from the more populated part of the strip and skip this locale nWhile we saved a bit with the room we lost just as much money with cab fair or were stuck at the Stratosphere and it is terrible restaurants and tight electronic poker games nThere is an almost night resort fee which covers terrible Internet I disconnected from it and used my cell data plan that is how slow it is a pool I never saw and a filthy weight room with no collars for the free weights Seems like a liability to me but hey the real liability was booking here to begin with nI will say that the registration staff were very nice to us nIf you do make the mistake of staying here stay in a group for your security if you venture out into the surrounding area
