text: My wife and I took our first trip to Vegas last October I was surprised at how clean the Golden Nugget was and how nice it was Honestly I was expecting a lot less It was not until we visited some of the supposedly nicer places on the strip that we realized that the Nugget is much better than it is given credit for nnOur room was very clean The carpet had just been cleaned before we arrived I guess it is possible that a lake of vomit had to be cleaned up or the soggy remnants of a porn video production or whatever but the only thing we saw or smelled was a clean room I appreciated that Then we noticed that somebody was always and I mean ALWAYS doing a shampoo job on the carpet somewhere in that place Whatever the reason I liked it It told me that they wanted it to be clean all the time nnWe never attempted room service In fact we did not take advantage of much at all that the hotel had to offer If it had have been only the room I was talking about I would have given it stars especially after seeing the room my friends had in a much more expensive hotel on the strip However getting a drink in the casino required huge patience and even an occasional scavenger hunt for a waitress And also the check in time was too long I would think that management could figure out peak times for customers checking in and out and staff up the desk for this Oh well nnOverall we enjoyed the Nugget and will certainly stay again
