text: I chose the Queens for my visit to Las Vegas for several reasons and I will admit a good lot of those involved the low price of the room Other reasons include the proximity to the Neon Boneyard the historic oldVegas reputation of the hotel and the ratings on Trip AdvisornnHowever the quality of my room was far below what I expected or even dreamed was possiblennI have very minimal requirements for hotel rooms generally I only want them to be clean not spotless clean and relatively safe Nonsmoking is also on the listnnMy room at the Queens was the filthiest hotel room I have ever stayed innnThere was hair of the netherregion variety in the bathtub In fact I do not think the shower or bathtub were touched by house cleaning before or during my stay I do not like to make a fuss so wipedeverything down myself and was too exhausted to switch rooms on top of thatnnEvery surface in the room felt greasy I am going to say it was covered in some Pledgelike substance humor me to make myself feel betternnThere was an empty packet of Lucky Strike cigarettes behind the one side of the drapes and a lighter on the other when I arrived and spotted quite easily This was touted to be a nonsmoking room I left the empty cigarette pack and lighter for the duration of my stay to see of it would be eventually pickedup by the housekeeping staff nnNope no such lucknnAdditionally there were cigarette burns in the bedding which was made of some scratchy ugly cheap fabric Two of the three lamps in the room did not work At all The remote did not work The air conditioner was very very loudnnI did not realized that the Academy of Country Music awards we are being held in the city the weekend I stayed and on the th floor I could hear the awful cover bands from Fremont Street quite clearly Granted I should have realized the ACMs were the weekend of my stay but the noise was a bit ridiculousnOh and the folks staying in the room next door smoked weed every night of my stay I dare say I could very well have gotten a contacthigh the smell was so strongnnLuckily I take Ambien to sleep and am dead to the world at night Even with the Ambien the worlds rattliest loudest air conditioner still woke me up several times each night This is in addition to being woken by the amazingly loud sex the reefer users next door were having Otherwise there is absolutely no way I would have gotten any rest in this hellholennUpdate I initially wrote this review with one night of my stay remaining Guess what It got worse The country band playing on the street on Saturday night was somehow defying the laws of sound louder and played later into the evening Once my Reefer Madness neighbors returned to their room at near am they rented several porn movies and acted out scenes from them This went on until about am I pounded on the wall twice called the front desk and nothing was done I did not sleep a wink despite the AmbiennnI finally headed to the airport around am five hours early for my flight because the hotel was just that damn bad and I could not stand the filthiness and sleaze any longernnAbsolutely the worst hotel I have ever stayed in The only thing that could have made it worse are bed bugs or a fire possibly breakingout
