I have stayed at the Golden Nugget quite a few times over the years. My experiences have always been decent for the most part. But this last trip has nearly destroyed any chance of me ever going back. \n\nWe (girlfriend and I) checked in Friday night the15th of July. First night there was nice and no complaints. Saturday the 16th was an epic day of rudeness and disbelief.\n\nOn Saturday I got out of bed and went down to the Starbucks in the hotel. The employee at the Starbucks was not the friendliest which was kind of shocking. Also both drinks seemed to be about 1/3 empty but I was too tired to deal with it and went back to the room.\n\nAfter enjoying our 2/3 cups of Starbucks my girlfriend and I got on the elevator to go start our day. A very nice couple tells us good morning and then asks us what the deal is with people around here and they tell us that no one is friendly. I explain to them that perhaps there are a lot of people from LA in town this weekend due to carmageddon and that people from LA are generally assholes. Little did I know the nice couple from Michigan had basically predicted our day.\n\nSo my girlfriend and I go to play a little blackjack while we wait on our friends who will be joining us to go to the buffet. I buy in for $260 and proceed to lose it. After playing for a while I ask the pit boss for two comps for the buffet and he just says no. I try to get him to explain why and he just says he is new and he can't check my players card and can't do this and can't do that and blah blah blah. Now I normally play in the high limit room as much as $300 a hand on average and here I am getting told no for a buffet comp. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TURNED DOWN AT ANY CASINO FOR A BUFFET COMP. After a few minutes the same pit boss came over and apologized and gave me the comps. BUT IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO BEGIN WITH. \n\nSo after this I decide to go talk to the casino host and find out where I stand on comps. The host was very unfriendly and lacking in personality and manners. She informed me that all she showed was 1 hour and 15 minutes of playing the night before. I told her that I had bought in at the high limit room for $200, craps table for $200, poured $300 into the $5 a spin Wheel of Fortune, and played other slots for several hours after blackjack at $25 a hand for a few hours. Her response was \"sometimes people don't do their jobs and you need to make sure you are getting credit when you play.\" Great. So now I have to make sure that the casino employees are doing the jobs that they are paid to do. I am not a manager. I am a customer. So I gambled and gambled and got no credit for it and got treated like a scrub by the casino host who seemed to take pleasure in denying me any kind of comps.\n\nSo then our friends arrive and we decide to go up to the buffet. We go to the buffet and are seated and the service is attentive if not friendly. But my first trip to the buffet I apparently was bothering the person who slices the roast beef. He was very unfriendly.\n\nAs my girlfriend and I and another female in the party were sitting down a loud sexual comment was directed at the girls by a group of 6 twenty something white guys who were drunk one table over. It was a comment that would not be tolerated in a strip bar but apparently it's ok here. \n\nI approached the table of scum and demanded to know who said what. Between the very scared server and my girlfriend not wanting to see her boyfriend end up getting jumped by 6 guys I somehow made it back to my table and sat down and was prepared to move on. But this action relayed weakness to the scum in the party of 6 and at this point they began hurling even further insults and innuendo our way for the whole restaurant to see and then began threatening physical violence upon my party.\n\nI had to ask the staff TWICE to call security.  Approximately one minute after the party left the security guard arrived and I told him what happened and his response was \"Well I didn't see it so I can't do anything about it and if they're guests at the hotel then I can't do anything to them.\" I WAS SHOCKED AND APPALLED TO SAY THE LEAST. Apparently if you are a guest at the Golden Nugget you can get away with quite a lot. I was so disgusted by his response. \n\nI am a regular patron of casinos. I've spent more time gambling in my life than 98% of Americans. I've been to casinos all over this country and have VIP status at many. This would NEVER have been tolerated at another casino. I have seen people removed for foul language let alone threatening other patrons along with a mob of your fellow scumbags and making sexual comments towards women in the restaurant.\n\nWe did not gamble one more cent in the Golden Nugget. This is disgusting behavior but what is even more disgusting is that the casino security did not care. Thanks for a great time Golden Nugget.
