Wow! After years of down economy, the Golden Nugget has decided to start a $5 fee for it's guests to help pay it's share of the Fremont Street Experience show. Citing what many of the Strip properties get away with, they justify the fee to it's guests. Without any question, the GN is the nicest property Downtown, and thus the issue. It's Downtown guys, not the strip....The Fremont Expereince has probably saved many of the properties by getting people to come take in the free show. What percentage of those guests park, see the show and then immediately leave? Probably not too many. Most will drink, shop, oh and maybe gamble while there, dontcha think? Let me give you my two cents: You feel you need to be the first to put in a fee? Think the others will follow? Do yourself a favor if you are not bringing in enough revenue, just build it into your room rates, not as an additional fee. Which will be better received? Hellllloooo? Duh. Start with the fee? You just lost a fan and a guest, out of principle I will never stay, shop, eat or gamble in your house. Why bother? Lots of other casinos in the area that are less stuffy, a little more roomy, and are more affordable in the drinks area. Whoever thought of this one should be canned. Be smarter.
