Q: negative

A: I go to this place every couple of months when I'm walking to/from Mill to/from my house which is less than a mile away. For years I wanted so badly for this place to be my little dive bar down the street where I could walk, get a decent drink then chill and move on. Instead, this place has consistently been one of the worst bars I have ever been to in my life. Almost every time I go they hit me up for cover and almost every time I would leave because it is not worth it. There can be 10 people in the place and some guy hitting bongos on the stage and they would want $5 at the door. Now I don't mind paying cover at a decent bar with decent acts, decent drink specials and decent service but this place lacks in all those areas. Anyway, last night (Sunday) my wife and I were walking back from Mill and decided to drop by and see if the place had changed any. We heard some music coming from their stage and decided that if they were charging a cover we would say f*ck off and leave. However, to our complete amazement there was no idiot standing by the door to take our money. We walked right in to the very uncrowded bar and ordered a drink. I've ordered things other than beer here and it is always a clusterfuc so we ordered a small pitcher of Kilt Lifter which was on special ($7 or something). They were out of the small pitchers (shocker) so we just got pints. This was not a surprise because they are always out of something. We took our beers to the back patio where we played ping-pong and then some bean bag throwing thing for about an hour. It was fun and nobody bothered us. Then, as we walked towards the bar to order another drink we basically got shaken down by a hippy guy in a tie dye shirt. He insisted that we pay him $5 because I guess he took a break from screwing people at the door when we walked in. We basically told him to screw off then walked home. Sure we could have paid the $5 but it wasn't worth it and the guy was a complete dick. I'm all for supporting local bands if they are decent and if I get some kind of value for my dollar. The Sail Inn is always don't-touch-anything sticky gross, way understaffed, always out of something, etc. so I receive little from going there and supporting this horrible place. Somebody please buy this place and turn it into a respectable bar.....or just knock it down and make it a parking lot which would at least provide something of value to the area.

A: Service toujours aussi impecable, en plus j'ai appris qu'il y a des grandes tailles pour les robes de chambre et qu'on peut les echanger autant qu'on veut. Par ailleirs, vous avez aussi acces aux bains si vous prenez un traitement d'osteopathie!

A: I was stopping for gas en route to the rental car return at McCarron, saw the Kabob Factory as I was turning in, and figured that an early dinner would be the perfect antidote to airline pretzels and peanuts. I was their first for dinner that night, and it felt like I was treated as a sheikh. I ordered the lamb kebob plate ($15); a basket of sliced flatbread and an INSANELY delicious mint sauce for dipping was brought as an appetizer. If you're a chili head, this is for you; if you're a garlic head, this is for you. I ordered the entree with a side of eggplant; the entree was brought to me with a heaping pile of saffron-infused basmati rice and superbly tender, seasoned lamb. Equally delectable was the eggplant, served casserole-style with a topping of yogurt sauce and parsley. Finished it off with a small dessert of a gulab jamun- inspired sweet dumpling- the perfect topper. I have to imagine Kebob Factory is a neighborhood favorite near the airport- I hope they maintain a steady business, for the locals' sake.

Q: positive

A:
It's been 3 years since I've been back to Las Vegas and also this hotel. Being a SPG GOLD member, I've always had a pleasant experience. I was surprise to read some of the negative reviews, but went with an open mind, since we all have our own opinions on what our expectations are. Upon arrival, I noticed the remodeling happening in the lobby bar, which no big deal, the front desk check in by Sean was amazing. He was very thorough, read my notes about a quiet room away from the elevator and no children next to our room. Unfortunately our room wasn't going to be ready, but gave me the option to be on a SPG level or the 5th floor, since we weren't in a hurry to go to our room, I told him, we'll wait. Once our room was ready, a prompt phone call to my cell letting me know after an hour was great. We had a beautiful room at the end of the floor level, which was quiet and was facing the ferris wheel, which lit up at night, but after being out all night, the last thing you want to do is walk another 5 miles to your room at 2:00 in the morning, the good news though is having the SPG GOLD status, let's you have a late check-out at 4:00, which was much needed to sleep. LOL!!
