PJFan Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Hi All. I'm heading to the VR Conference in Las Vegas in a few weeks. I've booked a room for Sunday and Monday, but I arrive on Saturday afternoon and am having trouble finding a reasonable room. The hotels I've called require a Friday AND Saturday booking, they can't be done separately. Soooo... I'm wondering if a kind VR soul would let me surf his/her couch for an evening until I can check into my room at the Riviera on Sunday. I'd also be glad to rent out some floor space in someone's hotel room if possible. Just let me know how many beer units you would require (can also convert to whiskey units if preferred). I'm sane, responsible, like long walks on the beach, and puppies. I promise not to kill you in your sleep if you'll do the same .

r22butters Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I almost went to Vegas a couple of days ago, couldn't believe how a room could be six times more expensive on Saturday than Sunday. On the flip side, airfare was six times cheaper on Saturday than Sunday! I guess the casino gods really didn't want me to go. Just find the dark corner at a club, and pass out until Sunday?

PJFan Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Yep, they have quite the racket in Vegas. I'm not sure how they get away with making Friday and Saturday mandatory. I actually thought about just staying up all night and enjoying the casino, but don't want to be a train wreck at the conference meetings the next day . Your advice would probably work at one of the really sleazy casinos off the strip. They'll think I'm just another drunk passed out in the corner.

PhotoFlyer Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I'd offer my couch, but it isn't in Vegas and it is too small to lay down on unless your some kind of Polynesian pygmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oil Pilot Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 http://www.goldennugget.com/ Just checked and you can book a room for that one night. 149, but better than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
