Thoughts on The LINQ?
Would you stay here?
That mini Irish casino with the shakes looks so cool! I'm definitely going there!
I think Harrah's is better, I like the newly renovated rooms at Harrah's more than at the LINQ but since the hotels are connected you still have easy access to everything at the LINQ like the Promenade.
Had a friend come out here with his buddies for a bachelor party last fall and they stayed at the Linq; I hung out with them one of the nights they were here - pregaming a bit in one of their rooms (standard 2 queens, looked almost identical to yours) and a bit of roulette on the casino floor before going out for the night, in all it was a fun time and the Linq seemed pretty great.
I would like to play and eat there, but the pool is too busy for my liking…my age is showing isn’t it…lol
Love your vibe wish I was cool like you
Ruby- I respect you and Mr. Ruby sacrificing and staying in these types of rooms. Some youtubers that shall remain nameless choose only high end rooms for their own personal satisfaction and not for their followers. You know how to give everybody a real experience.
My husband and I are 51 and we love the Linq. With that being said, we are party people and love staying up all night. The Linq is in the perfect spot on the strip! Love your content Ruby!
Small rooms but I really appreciate the fact that the rooms have refrigerators, we were able to save some leftovers and it came in handy for sure late night. To be honest if you want to be central strip without a Caesars Price, LINQ is it! Everything was fairly walkable I thought. Hash House a go go was a great breakfast, sometimes it’s a long wait but they text you when the table is ready, so you can hit the room and wait or gamble. Overall I really like the location, my family and I did two nights in October 2021.
My girlfriend and I have stayed at the Linq every time we've visited Vegas in the last 4 years. We've never had a bad experience, and we love its location on the strip & its connection to the monorail. We find that it allows us to hit all of our favorite places without having to worry about driving or Ubering!
I've stayed at the Linq a bunch. Looks like they removed the free chairs at the pool and added more daybeds so they can charge to sit. This is a trend happening at the Caesar Properties and it's ridiculous.
Since El Dorado bought Caesars the value has gone way down for their properties.
@@butcho7492 I also noticed how things have changed (AND NOT FOR THE BETTER) at "Harrahs, LV" !
I did not like the remodeling of the casino floor! But that is not left up to me of course.
I know quite a few of the workers there, mostly Bartenders and Waitress's and they are NOT happy.
I am local myself and just went there last week and did not like the change at Harrahs.
They are now "remodeling" the Sports Book so I will see how that works out!
Just got back. They have free lounge chairs all around the pool still, just pushed against the walls.
I worked at the old Imperial Palace / Linq as a Security Officer for over 30 years....I got stories....over 17 guest deaths / suicides (1 employee), 1 murder, a whole lot of insanity!!
When I've gone into the O'Shea's mini casino and seen their prices, being old enough to remember the original in it's prime, had prompted me to say "that's bloody blasphemy" with the increased prices compared to the old days...
Hey Ruby! Would love to see videos comparing the cheapest room to the best/most expensive room at the different hotels.
Two nights ago I binged all the videos you've been posting... and I wanted more, wondering when the next would be. And here we are lol. I'm over here loving the content- regardless of where you go or what you're up to! Informative, beautifully shot, and just a good time with you and Mr Ruby. Thanks for what you do! And its def helped me plan my last couple Vegas trips.
Do you have / could you do a video about safety as a solo traveller? I am a female solo traveller and consider myself quite savvy when out and about. However, I'd love to hear other peoples tips/tricks to keeping important things safe in your room while you're out, extra precautions to take while you're there, even going to the pool can sometimes be awkward - thinking what to do with my belongings while I go in the pool, always having to keep facing my sun lounger to keep an eye on it. I've been looking at lockable security boxes/bags, doorstops etc
My biggest issue with the Linq is the long walk to the room, and the puddle of soap that forms on the vanity under the pump bottle.
Bro i stayed at the link the day this video came out and the walk to my room was so bad I would have asked to be moved if I was staying longer than 2 days.
The long walk exists in all casino hotels. That's why I never stay in a casino hotel. I stay off strip and only go to the specific places I want to visit. Plus, I don't want myself and entire suitcase smelling like smoke for my entire Vegas visit, which is also impossible to avoid staying in a casino.
It is such an improvement from the Imperial Palace days. I stayed there in 2004 and just remember the hallways being weird and getting turned around all the time. I have been there since the renovation and so cute.
The IP had its own Bruce Lee Villain's Lair charm.
Still the same way with the elevator situations though
I’d love to see a video on the best things to do on Weekdays in Las Vegas
Hey Ruby, I’ve been binge watching your channel!! Love to see a separate makeup/lifestyle channel or even curious the best happy hours in Vegas!! I’ve been twice before the pandemic, I really want to go back now!! Love from Canada 🇨🇦
That water sure was murky lolololol
Stayed here last week for my aunt’s 60 birthday party. I had a good time and was kind of surprised. My older family had a blast as well.
I like this channel better than pompsie
some people like pepsi some people like coke
Yes!! Love this review! We leave for Vegas next week for a long weekend. Staying at The Linq and this makes me even more excited to be there!
I loved my stay at the Linq last year. Have a good time! I plan to stay there again next time
Man, I used to be a cocktail waitress when it was Imperial Palace. I remember they had these shitty rooms that overlooked the loading dock. No sunlight, just a view of semi trucks and dumpsters! I always had a blast at O'sheas, Battistas, Ellis Island, and the now closed Key Largo.
Battistas!
I like more of a chill vibe but for a bachelor/bachelorette party this place seems perfect! Thanks for the amazing content Ruby!!
Linq is notorious for not having enough elevators. Avoid it around check IN/Out times. Not my vibe.
I enjoy staying there. Lots of places to eat. Room is big enough for me. And I don't party but like the place. Elevators are slow but there are some in the back that people miss
stayed here for edc in may. check-in process was way more stressful than it needed to be, kiosks weren't working & had to keep being directed to reception which was just 1 person. rooms were small and not enough counter/table space. bathroom lights did not turn on & had to reset them ourselves. rideshare pickup is out of the way + confusing to find. overall, would not stay here again despite it being cheap & midstrip.
I agree the rideshare pickup location is a joke here under that parking deck
should've done Bally's for the midstrip pick up or even the Rio for their shuttle stop, we got a huge suite at the Rio in May for 5 nights for about $600 for edc lol
@@dannym3532 i would have done ballys except this was my first edc so i didnt know shuttles would sell out soooo quickly and got stuck with resorts world. had to lyft back and forth from our hotel every night lol
Thank you Miss Ruby Red, you are rocking that swim suite also
Me and my husband stayed in a smokers king room as we like to indulge in 🍃 while in vegas. The smoker rooms are a shit view(linq parking garage) but the room was roomy clean. We didnt have any hang soap, but we always bring our own anyways. We have stayed here 2 times and love it. My only big con is that they do not take cash whatsoever so make sure you have your money on your debit or credit card available for your stay. We are going to stay at a different hotel next time but the linq will always have our hearts.
I've kind of soured on Vegas, at least for now, but your videos are so engaging and well-done that I really enjoy watching them, even though I might not get to Vegas for a while.
I like LINQ!!! Vegas is so awesome!! I love my city. Please do video on local restaurants too!
I stayed here last time I was in vegas. I liked it there. Definitely for the party goers though. It's funny I didn't find these places to eat cause there's so many options. Another thing too is that the location is amazing. Central strip.
I remember when this was called The Imperial Palace when i was there in 2001. I did go back in 2016 to see the changes at The Linq, I liked it!
It's one of my favorites and I've stayed there the most because of that amazing location. However, those room prices are a far cry from the days of the Imperial Palace when I would get the same room, mid-week for $17-$18, in the days before resort fees. So it was about $20 a night with tax. OMG I'm old 😢
In 2011, I stayed in IP for literally free and I have the most basic player's card you can have (I just don't really gamble). I remember looking at the website and realizing I could have stayed for the full month of November for free.
Everything this girl does is gold and interesting you start watching you get hooked fast
100% accurate linq review! We are staying currently and I agree with everything you said! It’s a fun place but definitely very overstimulating. Best location I think on the strip so close to soooo much! Thanks for the reviews ruby!
Thanks Ruby, I leave for Vegas in the morning & I am booked At LINQ for 5days/6nights.
In the least creepy way as possible....You are adorable in the morning. (w/your little dunkin doughnut smile)
Love your Romeo and Juliet shirt ! One of my favorite movies ! And love the videos. Going to Bellagio in December and can't wait.
I'm a older person but l like a lively atmosphere. Also, if the rooms are good, sure, I'd stay there. ☺
I always stayed here when it was the imperial palace my first time was in 1991. Last time was in March of 2002. But in all my trips in between these years all but twice did I stay somewhere else and I missed this place because of its location. Always had a good clean room and loved the tea house restaurant for dinner and breakfast also loved the $1.99 11pm to7am. Biscuits and gravy special in the teahouse restaurant. Boy was it good.
Off season (fall) the LINQ is my favorite. Got 3 nights for $17/night. Off season (winter) I love Paris. Off season (spring) I love Caesars. Summer season- Bellagio.
I was in Las Vegas last week and enjoyed every second of it. I was low key hoping to bump into you making one of your videos, I enjoy your informative reviews of all things Vegas.
153K congratulations 🥳🥳🥳
The best thing about The Linq is the location. I stayed when it was the Imperial Palace years ago.
I remember I say they’re at the Quad casino before then what is celebrity dealers and I have to stayed in Austin Powers room they have so dunno the changes I been with mgm and Sahara hotels but yeah I’m going to enjoy ur video and done for the day. Have a awesome day
I don't plan to visit the Linq when we hit Vegas in October - but I still watch your video because you always have such great tips and information! And the production value on your videos is always terrific - props on the editing!
Have you ever been to Lake Las Vegas. It was going to be a new hot spot. But being way off the strip it never took off.
I went about 20 years ago. It was a beautiful Casino. Look into it and go even if it is no longer open. It was a very cool idea. Small shops where also built
love all your videos but when can we expect more videos of you playing the slots?
I booked a king suite for the end of the month, can’t wait! 🙌 690 sqft $210 for sun-tue resort fees and all!
Another great review and with the Linq so close to everything yeah I would stay there and I love the fact you show what there is all to do at the resorts in your reviews
I love the music in this one. I like the reboot of those songs.
I'm going to Vegas for my bday in February next year , the Linq looks like a great place to stay!
I’ve been binge watching your videos (a sort of prep for bringing my son and his girlfriend to Vegas for their first time)…and introducing them to a frozen Baileys is #1 on my list!
Big thanks to you and Mr Ruby for sharing your Vegas experiences!
Not sure why people pay for early checkin. I’d rather put my bags in holding and go do something.., eat, gamble.. etc.
Thanks Ruby for reviewing the Linq again, me and my family are planning to stay there when we visit Vegas next, love your content, the best!
I stayed at the LINQ years ago (maybe 2015?) - your comment at the end was spot on. I remember waiting 20mins+ for the elevator.
$60 early check in fee! $10 breakfast sandwich! $5 coke! Prices have gotten ridiculous. I guess you could buy that drink your first day there and use it for your whole trip . Were the lines long if you just checked in at regular check in time at 4?
I love your channel and I've been watching your channel for a while to get good tips. My family and I are taking a vacation to Vegas June 9th 2024 - June 14th 2024 and we're staying at the Linq and we're so excited.
The room you were in looked great! The location is good as well - a monorail stop, right next to Harrah's, a fairly quick walk (at least for me, I walk pretty fast) to the Venetian. I've walked through the property and the Linq Promenade several times. I haven't actually stayed there, but would like to at some point.
Came back to this one after booking our first trip to the Linq for mid February. Got an “upgraded” room in district 3 with a city view for $36, plus tax and resort fee. Hoping for a Sphere view. I walked past the Linq on my last trip and it looked like a really fun place. The proximity to the Linq promenade is gold. We are coming for Postcards at Sphere.
We stayed at the Linq last year for my husband’s convention & the vibe was definitely younger. And we ate those same EXACT trash can nachos at Guy Fieri ! We loved them. This years convention is at Ceasars which was scheduled two years ago…thank goodness! Leaving tomorrow from central California…about a 5 hour drive. I can’t thank you enough for the SO MANY tips!
I first visited Vegas in 2002. Visited a lot since. Was there in July. With two exceptions, always stayed at the Linq. Was the Imperial Pallace in 2002. Good location, and a reasonable price. Ultra modern. A good place to walk the Strip
Thank you for disclosing prices$$ Fun videos and very informative! Keep up the awesome work!
“You can see into other people’s rooms” room sales quadruples, haha.
Fantastic place to stay, In and Out is close by and the pizza by the slice is great too
$60 fee for early check in ?
What a joke, that's organized crime
That's as much of a robbery as the resort fee , Thanks for the valuable info I know to steer clear of this place
AGREED! That is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE!
When you said you were getting a drink everyone mentioned I knew exactly where you were going!! Frozen baileys are half the reason we go to Vegas!
Love the Yardhouse on the promenade...great addition/change from what this area was years ago.
I am part of the older crowd and I stayed at the Linq in the past. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
The linq is my go-to hotel, rooms are nice, clean etc. All with a fridge, which is a huge plus. I've never been charged for early check-in. And you can not get a better location on the strip. Plus if you need to get away from the noise they have an amazing spa with 20 dollar day passes.
We LOVE staying at The LINQ. When we went in March 2021 we were forced to stay at Harrahs instead of where we booked at The LINQ. We missed staying at The LINQ. We are not big into the “party vibe” but love the cheap places to eat, nice rooms, central strip placement & O’Sheas. I am 41 & my fiancé is 51. We don’t feel too old or too out of place compared to other places like Aria or Some fancier casinos.
thanks ruby, another great, honest video....just curious, the bed looks very low to the floor, was it a problem for you?...joe
Good video; but as I’m a old f-t, I’ll pas on the party casino; but in my youth; hold on baby 😎😎😎😎😎🤩🤩👍👍👌👌👌
Just stayed there last month. 1st night was a disaster but they moved us to a different room and had a great time from there on. Hash house is really good and location of this resort is the best.
Best time to check in Las Vegas hotel 4pm
I stayed here for one night when I decided to start my trip a day early. I was not disappointed.
I love The LINQ!. I loved it when it was The QUAD!. I loved it when it was Imperial Palace!. Nights on the balconies when you could hang outside them and everyone would come out and do shots, dance and flash Bitties was the best!. Always a good vibe.
Stayed there in late 2019 and liked it a lot. Had the suite and it was really nice. Whoever had the room before us left the mini-fridge stocked with a case of beer. Can't beat that.
And it’s in the middle of the mono rail which helps break up some of that walking!!
I stayed at the Linq. They did the best they could with an old building, but the building is built for another time. Not enough elevators, and crowded in areas. The rooms are updated and clean. It wasn't as cheap as advertised ... upcharges on everything (but that's Vegas). The best part is the location and closeness to the Promenade. I'd give it 3/5. I'm trying to be fair. If you're used to staying in higher-end Vegas hotels you won't like it. First-timers or on a budget - it's good. There are other budget options. It is a party hotel - full disclosure, that's not my bag.
I'm staying at the linq this wk. Great video and recommendations I'll definitely checkout. As always great video.
When you basically had a stroke talking bout the elevators n had to cut got me.
Love your content. Keep it coming.
We stayed at LINQ about 3 years ago and had no issues with it. Refrigerator was tiny and not super powerful but it kept our leftovers cold. I really don't care about hotels, as long as it is clean, comfy bed and no major issues like broken AC then all is good.
I'm pretty sure if you take your receipt to the rewards desk you can get your points that way. MGM does anyway...
Stayed there once and that was enough for me. When in Vegas you don't spend a lot of time just chilling in the room but even for sleeping, the LINQ wasn't impressive enough me to go back.
Harrah's is my favorite!
Can you make a favorites video? Like favorite casino to gamble in, favorite bed, favorite dining, favorite place for cocktails etc? Thank you!!!
We stayed precovid and it was great. Only issue is our room literally saw the line for in and out. I lived on the east coast and moved to cali and then back east so it was trouble lol.
Woof…Frozen Bailey’s: Ruby ……. I ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ them but am such a short hitter that I can barely finish one….and then I do really really stupid things…..gambling-wise, that is!
My tip: bring an insulated cup and pour your freeze into that so your hand doesn’t get sloppy wet and frozen while you enjoy…..Serious drinks require serious prep! Thanks for the nice info!
My very first trip to Vegas in 2000 I stayed in Imperial Palace, floor 3 the lifts were so so busy then too , just used the stairs x
Thanks for the new review! I was having withdrawals LOL
I have sat and watched so many of you videos. Thank you!
Sucks that they took out the balconies. $250 sounds like way too much for a place like that.
I am so glad you gave such an honest review of this property. It is definitely not for an older crowd. This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at in Las Vegas and I have been to many. Years ago when this hotel was remodled and became the Linq, we decided to split our time between the Mirage and The Linq. One thing to mention is this hotel is not for anyone who has mobility issues. My sister had to use a scooter because of mobility issues. We first checked in to the Mirage and it was one of the best properties on the strip. Then we got to the Linq. I will just say the biggest insult was when the front desk agent said We dont cater to those pointing at my sister in her scooter. It was bad enough that my sister felt embarrassed because her health was failing at that point but to have someone do that was horrible. Like I said my sister felt like a queen zipping around the Mirage and then like dirt at the Linq.
That's really good to know. I need to use a wheelchair at times as I can only walk short distances. You don't realize how inaccessible some of these places are until you need help. Thick carpets and cobblestones are my nemesis as I use a manual wheelchair. So hard to propel yourself.
Highly not recommended for low mobility people. Most of the casino floors have stair access only at the Linq, although it’s been a few years since I was last there.
Oh that's terrible, maybe I'll change my mind then. It would be my first n only trip, I have trouble walking.
Maybe someday that POS at the front desk will get his scooter… millennials can be so disrespectful
The elevators do get busy there but there is a really cool hidden stairwell w a mural that covers the whole thing from the pool all the way down to casino floor
First time I went to Vegas I stayed at Harrah’s, which is right next to the Linq
Great video, Ruby!
The linq used to be the imperial palace decades ago. Elevators were an issue then too
If anyone ever goes to New Orleans, Molly’s Irish pub has that Bailey’s espresso! It’s a perfect place for a frozen drink like that because it’s ever hotter there than Vegas! 🥵 so good too 😋
Looks like a fun place for you kids, years ago I would have enjoyed it 😀 great info for your subscribers 👍🏻
Every time I’m in Vegas I have stayed at that hotel even when it was the Pagoda, it’s on the strip, easy access to forum and bus stop to outlet mall or fashion island. Issue was that I asked for a refrigerator in my room and they said their would be an extra charge. Tried the outdoor patio during my pre Easter holiday and it was so busy.
I look forward to your videos every week, I feel like I stalk your YT channel daily for updates hehe! Even with the post notifications on, I just love the content🙌🏽
Glad you tried the frozen Baileys!
As a fellow Vegas Vlogger, I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve never been to Las Vegas so I might not know what to do over there and also I might go to Las Vegas in the near future
