Guest guest Posted June 25, 2000 Report Share Posted June 25, 2000 Betty, Be prepared. It is brutally hot out west here (we live in the San Valley which is always at least 10 to 20 degrees hotter than Los Angeles). It was over 100 in Southern CA today and you can imagine out in the desert of Las Vegas. And don't let anyone tell you dry heat is not at hot as humid heat. I am from Jersey (out here for 24 years) and hot is hot. It may be dry, but it is HOT!!!! Have a great time in Vegas. It is one of our favorite places to go for a weekend. It is only 3 1/2 hours away from where we live. We go about once a month. Hope you win. And be sure to see the brand new casinos, The Venetian, Paris, New York New York and the best, Bellagio. They are all so beautiful. Have fun. Angera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 1, 2000 Report Share Posted July 1, 2000 Thanks for your note. You were right. It was HOT. We are from New England, live in Col. 3yrs., IL 3yrs. and now in Va. many. I can't imagine living there except I guess it is cheap. I'd rather pay more somewhere else. We were there yrs. ago, but had a car so went back to Lake Mead and Hoover Dam, did see the beautiful hotels, the beautiful shows of light on Fremont St and on the Strip. We gambled mostly at Sam's Town which we liked along with their water show. Food was great, and people so helpful and friendly. We got back this 5:30 Am so having a slow day. My feet swelled up twice their size last couple of days. Almost down now. Thanks again for note Betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Bally is also know as Bally Park Place. The Paris Hotel is part of the Park Place corporation. I called and spoke with the risk manager at the Paris today, talk about a bitch!..For a risk manager she either is ignorant of the mold situation or electing to shrug it off on to the hotel manager or head of housekeeing. She didn't want to hear about any possible problem. THe Rio hotel is safer than most of the other ones. Just go thru Dennis Lindenbach the risk manager for a room assistance if you have MCS issues. I have discovered that the Doubletree hotels in San Francisco, Monterrey and Dana point, are willing to detox a room. I am not sure about the one in Vegas. There is SUPPOSE to be a GREEN hotel called the Crowne Royal on Paradise. It's NOT green nor is it safe.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 The Doubletree in Modesto is a whup job too but it's in the elevator shaft. The room wasn't nearly as bad as getting to and fro. We need to do a Mold Rating guide for Travelers. Just kidding. It wouldn't work due to the variable factors of spore cloud release from humidity and barometric pressure change. Not to mention wind direction change and plume vectors as cold fronts pass through. This lifestyle is darn tricky. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Define detox. I find 79-129 is VERY reasonable. The rates varry upon occupancy. I pay various amounts depending on wheter or not it is full or empty. The strip hotels are over priced and your raped for the *ambience*.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Do all you guys travel that much to know hotels??? I can barely leave my house!!!Janet Hi Janet, My travel experience is more limited to Motel 6. I have been a few nice places. But as to health issues, I am not so limited. I got sick in 1995 and was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. Then I was lucky enough to get a research test for mycoplasma. Because that showed up I was treated with antibiotics and was one of the few who responded. But I had to stay on antibiotics or I would relapse. This past spring I was finally diagnosed with Lyme disease which I have probably had for 30 years. One of my sons also has this and was just diagnosed. He has probably been infected since birth as I am pretty sure I got it a year before he was born. The other son is fine so far. I only realized that toxins/mold played a part in my illness this year. For me the toxins are maybe not the biggest factor, but who knows. This whole thing is a mess. Anyway, to make a long story short, I am not as sick as some due to effective treatment of the infections. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Raise hell enough with the ADA accommodation issue...you bet. Right now the airlines are looking into fragrances in planes. I will be posting very shortly information to write as they are revamping some rules and regs.

That is a great suggestion to do... Also, wrapping the meds in a handtowel is something I hadn't thought about doing either. My DH and I have our room already reserved and bless his heart he did remember to ask for a handicap room in which I was proud of him for doing that. From your email it sounds like you have been to Vegas. If you have any other suggestions you can think of that would be helpful I would be most appreciative. This will my DH and myself first time to go. I am looking forward to it as it will be a nice break from work. Wanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hi Kathleen, I love the sound of a Lazy River ride! I also feel we should be as centrally located as possible and always like a fridge & MW-Oven in the room. If a free breakfast is included in room price, that's a bonus, too. Hope this can all be worked out; I'm very excited about the prospect of meeting others like myself. Later, Marty .... Monte Carlo and a normal price has been $79.00 to $99.00 a night for a nice two queen bed room with fridge and micowave. ...The hotel is a bit more central then the Bellagio and priced more reasonable. They have a great heated wave pool and a heated lazy river pool... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
