Review of The Stratosphere Hotel Casino ...

First time staying in Vegas and picked this hotel ...

First time staying in Vegas and picked this hotel because it's close to the convention centre. I had to queue for 45 minutes to check in.

Then when checking in, was told I was getting a complimentary upgrade for the wait.

I was upgraded to a room with mold and peeling wallpaper in the bathroom.

Asked to be downgraded to my original room if the room would be better and was actually told that this room was better.

Ended up having to pay to get a new room. Not sure I'm entirely happy with having to pay extra to get a room without mold.

Still, it's a room I'm not going to spend much time in and the hotel had everything I need, it's even for a McDonald's in it.

WiFi is poor though. Be aware of this.
