The resort fees are a total rip-off. $37 for that room would have been just fine for what you got but the resort fees doubled the price & that room was not worth that price.
I know right 37 dollars to look at a brick wall in some spots. I mean come on Circus Circus has to know they have a real shit hole for a hotel. I would rather pay 37 dollars for a cheep hooker because the diseases that can be obtained from a Vegas street hooker has gotta be a little better than the diseases you get from staying it shit hole like this place.
Stayed there many times in the 80's. The last time I stayed there was Christmas 1999 with my wife and 3 kids. My younger 2 really enjoyed watching the circus acts. I never had a bad experience there, the buffets were very cheap with very good food. I always has a good time gambling there.
Mr. Jones I don't doubt that your experiences in the 80's were good there it was prolly different there for sure back then but now this place is a real class F shit hole, I mean the worst kind of shit hole, like a shit hole that doesn't cleaned properly.
I went to circus circus last month the week of New Years here’s my honest review: we booked manor lodge with no idea the reputation of the hotel. I was kind of worried that it might ruin the whole trip. When we got there, we were instantly upgraded to the sky tower which was a relief. The casino area smells smoky but that’s normal in Vegas. There’s a bunch of families and kids there and it feels safe. Our room was pretty old fashioned but I don’t mind as I just needed a place for a few nights. The room was pretty large and the bathroom was also very large. In my opinion, circus circus was a lot better than I expected for the cheap price I had to pay. It’s on the strip but u kind of have to walk a good 20-30 mins to get to the main area of the strip, personally I don’t mind. As long as you’re looking for a decent place for the night, this is a good choice
I stayed here last march and I had such a great time that I'll be going back there next month. I went to a lot of the casino on the strip and this one was the only one that I felt comfortable in. I don't care that it's an older one. My room was very clean and the staff treated you like family. I loved the Pool table area. Lots of fun and met some great people. Some people are just to picky and not happy unless they can bitch about something.
The purpose of a hotel room in vegas is to make you want to leave the hotel room and spend money in the casino. Everything from room quality to TV channel selection is designed on purpose to make you want to go downstairs and spend money on the games. Also, the beeping was probably the smoke detector. While they are hardwired for power, there's a battery backup and it'll beep when the battery needs changing. Also, if you want a minifridge, call down stairs and they'll bring one up. Many people travel with medication that needs chilling.
Slots are loose there when I can take a $500 bankroll and roll it into $7000 I don’t care how the room looks. The nicer the place the tighter the slots
Tell that to the casinos downtown. I remember the first time I was in Vegas in the early 90's, that's where all the loose slots were. Places like Binions, 4 Queens, Fremont, Plaza, even the Nugget was ok. They used to be the places I would hit if I wanted slots. Now all those places are tighter than a nun's....well you get the idea...in order to save money and cling to survival.
Circus Circus was an old cheap hotel when I stayed there in 1989 at $20 per night which after taxes (no crazy pure-profit resort fees back then) ended up being under $25. Back then it was better to splurge on a $40 per night for a huge suite at the Desert Inn (where Wynn and Encore currently are). The marbled bathroom there was bigger than the entire room at Circus Circus. After gambling up an appetite at $2 blackjack tables, we would head over to the Riviera Hotel for their $7.77 steak & lobster after-midnight special. Those were the real bargain days of Vegas.
Can anybody tell me why was the Desert Inn purchased to put a Wynn and an Encore hotels over there? I too remember that the Rivera had some delicious food back then in the late 1980's.
These videos are fun! I remember walking through the hotel years ago, but I didn’t stay there. It was actually pretty nice for being an older hotel and the least expensive on the strip. The donuts 🍩 looked amazing! 😊❤️
I “stayed” at the Manor about 2/3ish years ago. We got in fairly late that night and basically just went to bed. I went to the bathroom at about 4 in the morning and saw a roach. We let the front desk know and they immediately moved us to the casino tower. A huge difference!
i loved circus circus so much!! it was so good for the price. i love the older vibes it makes me feel so comfy :3 i loved the little shops to and the adventure dome was so cool! i would go there again. btw, i asked the people for a mini fridge and they gave it to us for the time of our stay!!
If there in the room can’t they get into you luggage if they are on the ground or any furniture with fabric on it. Oh and yes the price does not mean there isn’t any bed bugs. The likelihood of the cheaper one having them is probably more.
Hi Annette, I am here to tell you that I have enjoyed watching this clip of yours because it is informative and it is exactly what type of rooms we got. Thanks for uploading this clip of yours for us to see. May 22, 2020 @ 3:00 pm
The Adventuredome at Circus Circus is open around 10AM-12PM daily. Circus acts are free. Games and rides, you pay for. A great place for kids. One thing, you cannot leave your kids there (it is illegal). Other places for kids are the Secret Garden at the Mirage, and the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay (both charge admission)
Great honest review! I agree with the beds... Great nights sleep and the pillows were better comfort than the Bellagio!! Circus Circus is what it is, its cheap, the room is fine and there is enough to do in the hotel if your bored compared to the other cheap ones. Obviously if you want modern and classy, you don't stay here but for fun gambling on a monday night... its alright!
I stayed there about 12 years ago, we had a great time. I thought the kiosks through the upper floors were cool, I got my kids some things from there. Plus the smell of that place in the morning when they were making those donuts was amazing! I will say the parking garage is kinda scary. 🍩 Edit....loving the look! ❤🤍❤
@@lasvegaswithannette584 Annette that was a alarm clock sweetheart!! I use to own one that sounded exactly like that back in the 1990's!! Great video and you look beautiful as always!!!
Personally I wouldnt touch anything in this room without gloves especially the bed spread. I once booked a room in the manor lodge and ended up sleeping in my truck. Place should be condemned. Never walk barefoot in a motel
We stayed at the Circus Circus about 90 times over the course of 20 years. We never paid a cent for the rooms because we were members of the One Club (slot club) and had accrued a lot in comps. I can see you stayed in the West Tower. We stayed there many times but after their last remodel, about 3/4 of the rooms in the West Tower had adjoining rooms with those damn steel interconnecting doors. When your neighbors come in at 2 A.M. and start arguing, the sounds go right through those doors. The last few years we picked the Main or "Casino" Tower.
Thats awesome! I try to just take the room they give me to get the best representation of what will happen to other people when they book the same room, but thanks for sharing, thats helpful if people read it!
@@demetriushill9725 For years I've carried a UV flashlight in my travel kit. As soon as I get to a room, I turn off all the lights and inspect the bathroom, bedding, walls and carpet. At Circus Circus the bathrooms and bedding have always been clean. (Otherwise I would have changed rooms immediately) I can't say the same for places on the walls or carpet, but I know what areas not to touch.
$78 for that room is a RIPOFF unless there was some special reason that ALL hotel rooms were expensive at the time of the stay. I payed half that price for 4Queens and it' was a much nicer room in much better condition. They can't even claim it's because Circus Circus is a strip hotel because it is SO SO far down the strip from the rest of the action that it might as well be the Strat or downtown as far as I'm concerned. Thank you for taking one for team.
Thanks for the tour. I was always curious, but since I have a thing with clowns- the thought of going to Circus Circus never crossed my mind. I love your demeanor, make-up and voice. Keep up the great work!🤗
I've stayed there several times over the years. I like it with the exception of the time that they put me in the manor on a holiday weekend. It was like a motel six, filled with 20 somethings partying. I like playing craps in their casino, and it's the most reasonable priced buffet on the strip.
Loved your video, Annette! :) When in Vegas, I love staying at Circus Circus! Honestly, it is a blast! It has a lot to offer including a water park, Adventuredome theme park, circus acts, awesome food including the legendary "The Steakhouse," and the rooms are very nice! Plus, I love clowns! I was just there last Thurs-Sat :)
@Sara Ford I love the Golden Nugget shark tank. And location on freemont street. About a minute walk to the hotel in back to the Future 2. That they called pleasure paradise. Also it's close to paradise Buffett on Fremont Street. Heartatck grill is near by. Not to far from busses. The big TV over head on Fremont is amazing. And people zip lining over head. Street performers live shows. Outside bar at Golden gate. And so much More. It's rely undisriable. And living a dream when you actually are there. I love it all so much.
@Sara Fordlas Vegas blvd by mgm is nice too. My favorite horell and casino on l v bld. Is circus circus. I heard it may be remodeled. Ii hope they don't destroy it's autentensity by doing so. It's so perfect as is. Old may need made new. But that old place is so beautiful the way it is. Life is sad always changing.
@Sara Ford I was in Mandalay Bay sence the shooting. It smelled like a war zone was hard to breathe. And our lungs hurt for a month after going in there. I hope it's had time to air out and be better. The sky mall connecting the casinos is awesome.
The price on the catfish dinner is insane, $30! It's not even a whole catfish, it's a fillet, and all you get with it is rice and a vegetable. I am in Washington Il. and I have a place about half a block from me that has a catfish dinner for $11.99, and on friday it's only $10.99. And you get a 1 lb. whole catfish, baked potato or fries, salad, vegetable, and a hot roll. They also give you two packets of gourmet crackers and lemon wedges and tartar sauce. The same place also has a bluegill dinner for $8.99, that is all fillets, usually 6 of them, with all the same sides as the catfish dinner.
I stayed their in 2007 very safe and nice.. if your not into the wild amd hollering .this is the place from pool to casino all good with me I was 48 at the time.
I have not stayed at the Excalibur in a long time. Always used to be one of my favorite places, I would love to see you stay there and see what you think! :)
1st time viewer! You are so cute! I love your look. Especially your nails :) I think as you do this more you'll just get better and better. Like you'll show us more of the actual hotel and not just you chilling in the room and one trip to CC. (I subscribed.) I like the subject of the channel and I look forward to checking out more of your videos! Greetings from Ottawa Ontario Canada.
Hi Annette. I'm with you, if I go away on a holiday I like to indulge myself in a more swish hotel!!! I don't think that makes us snobs lol, but I absolutely get your point about being on a budget. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised at how very clean the room etc looked. It seems great value for money, especially if you're not planning on spending much time in the room. Also a comfy bed is an essential!!! Wishing you A Very Happy Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2020🎄🥂🎅⛄, with love from London ❤.
Yea it really wasnt too bad! Ive heard horror stories and people warning me to bring my own sheets and all kinda stuff, so i didnt know what to expect lol. Merry christmas to you as well!
Oh, you are the Texas holdem player!! Don't know why it took me so long to make the connection,, I watch and play poker all the time! Love your videos, !!
As long as they don't demolish it! That hotel is classic and deserves to be restored. They NEVER shoulda demolished the Stardust and Dunes. I was traumatized by that loss!
Nene Definitely shouldn’t! Circus Circus is my favorite hotel to stay at. Even when I was a kid. I loved looking at Stardust when we arrived there because of the retro look colors. I just love themed hotels. Las Vegas is becoming too modernized with these new hotels (Aria/Vdara, Cosmopolitan, Planet Hollywood, Resorts World) and getting rid of the classic themed hotels. It looks bright but dull.
I just hope it doesn’t ruin the pricing. This is my husband’s favorite place to stay (and mine!) because we aren’t big on the fancy schmancy parts of Vegas. We are big kids so Circus Circus is perfect for us.
Everyone who had kids and was middle class stayed at Circus Circus in the 1980s and early 1990s. But by the year 1998 it started to go downhill and by 2004 it was ghetto.
Las Vegas has changed immensely since I first vacationed there in 1991. Many old hotels are gone and new ones in their place. Room rates aren’t the bargains they used to be even in the better resorts, and not just due to resort fees. Same for many of the restaurants. Everything was geared to get you to spend money in the casinos. Room quality can vary greatly, too. I’ve stayed at Circus Circus a couple times. The rooms were passable; similar in quality to a Motel 6 or an older Super 8. The overall rule is “you get what you pay for.” Don’t expect to spend 30-40 per night on a room and have a Room with the quality of a Hilton or Sheraton. If you want a better quality room, expect to pay more. Gambling isn’t as big a draw as it used to be in Vegas, so prices reflect that. I do dislike the resort fees. It would be much more honest to bump up the room rates and make it amenities inclusive like it used to be. I can’t really speak to having to pay for parking because I have flown into Vegas for most of my trips; the times I did drive there was long before parking fees were started. Overall, I feel the parking fees just serve to hurt the locals or the people who live close enough to make frequent weekend trips.
I totally agree you get what you pay for, and I think some people forget that sometimes and think that just because its a vegas hotel, its gonna be amazing even if its cheap. I also think there should just be one price listed for the room with the resort fee included
I agree ...I first went in 1994...totally different now with room rates and everything...I remember you could get a really good prime rib dinner for dirt cheap back then at Binion's Horseshoe
God bless you for staying at Circus Circus. I was there last May with a friend so I could play at their casino and within minutes of stepping into the place I started to itch. I vowed that I would never step foot into that place again. The entire place had a moldy smell to it.
Resort fees are part of the price of the room, the reason they are good is that travel sites like expedia and so on take a percentage of room rate sometimes close to 25%, they do not take it from the resort fee. So if they charged the room + resort fee as the actual rate they would make less per room and you know what that means the price goes up even more.
Hello Annette. One of your vids magically showed up in my YT feed. I've always wanted to check out Vegas, and even more now that a few friends of mine have moved there from the LA area, and my Raiders are there now too...LOVE your makeup and style as well. Great work!! I sub'd!
Fellow local here, parking at circus is decent. Two small garages and an open air lot for larger vehicles and RVs. Plus it's free, i usually park here whenever I'm just walking the strip.
I know you said you’re planning to do one on Luxor, do you have a planned date for it? I’m very curious to watch one because I’m going to be there at the end of the month! Curious to see your view on it and then mine as well.
I havent booked anything yet, no, I think my next stay will be Golden Nugget. I try to alternate between cheap/more expensive hotels, so maybe in 3 months or so
My first time in Vegas I stayed in the manor and it's pretty much just like a Motel 6, the next time I upgraded to the towers and it was only like $8 more a night but I got $40 in drink vouchers so it was actually cheaper and way better!
This honestly doesn’t look quite as bad as I thought. Based on reputation, was expecting the worst hotel ever, but it’s closer to a typical best western or dated four points & holiday inn. I heard the motor lodge side is super sketchy though. The adventure dome seems pretty cool, and I hear circus circus has some really decent steak. Nice video :)
Same here, I was pleasantly surprised for sure! I did read some horrible reviews about the motor lodge tho lol. I do think they should make it more obvious on the site that its not part of the actual hotel. Thats what most of the complaints said, and on top of them not knowing it sucked lol.
I've stayed at a lot of hotels in Vegas but the one place I've always been curious about that I have not stayed at is the Four Seasons. I've stayed at Mandalay Bay but not the Four Seasons part of it. xoxo Deb
Ill def stay at mandalay at some point. Im trying to stick to the well known ones for now when im trying to get people to find my channel, but down the line when ive gone through all of the big hotels ill hopefully get around to trying like the extra hotels 😄
I used to stay at a $29night room at Circus Circus in Reno all the time. It was a great room. It was a regular $49/night but as a preferred customer, we got a special deal cause we went multiple times a year. If you just want a basic room, they’re fine. Have nice service & never had a problem. Went multiple times a year for like 10yrs.
I can hear a very, very slight accent in your voice... especially words that end with T. Maybe Dutch or Swedish possibly? Also, your eyeshadow colors reminds me of the iridescent green of a male Mallard duck's head... that's a compliment by the way. 😁
Stayed at a room here last year. It was a first time experience coming to Vegas and I thought it was great. However, you're great with being honest about the rooms and I whole heartily agree with your comments about the room. Nice informative video and your face makeup looks hott.
Honestly, Circus Circus is not bad at all. To each their own. I went there when I was a kid to hang out at the Midway & Adventuredome in the late ‘90s. We were staying at Lady Luck at the time (which is now known as Downtown Grand). Then we started staying at CC every year since 2004. Sure, the hotel needs more of a refresh than an upgrade/renovation (repaint the pink of the towers and the Big Top, update some of the furniture, carpets, etc.) and I’m looking forward to what Phil Ruffin has in store for CC, including the wave machine and the sand beaches!
Nice job with the commentary. I haven't been to Vegas in over 10 years but last time I was there I stayed at the Sahara. There was NOT a hefty resort fee at that time and like Dennis said below, that's probably where the FREE internet factors in. I suspect it may be similar at other hotels in the city
I just stayed there last week :( dirty, over priced, ants in room and amenity's were crappy to say the least. DONT STAY HERE!!!! You will thank yourself!
Stayed at Circus Circus last June. I usually stay at the Linq for the location. Circus Circus has an undeserved bad reputation. The room was nice. Depending on the time, every hotel has lineups. One thing, no security to watch who goes up the elevators. When I went in June, charged the resort fee when I checked in. Think their breakfast buffet is the best I have had (good dinner too). It is in the more seedy part of the Strip. Don't walk at three in the morning
20 minute wait to check in doesn’t seem too bad. Check in line at Flamingo - got there at 3:00am and waited in line for 3.5 hours to check in. 🤬 Children sleeping on the floor.
Also before I forget, when you film the night views from your window shut your lights off inside the room. I'm gonna keep on checking out your videos and see if you take my advice. LoL. Keep up the great videos.
stay at delano, best cheapest room on the strip and ive stayed at encore, venetian, wynn, caesars, cosmo, planet hollywood, mgm grand, bellagio and more.
@@lasvegaswithannette584 i first stayed when it was the hotel as well, have stayed 3 more times since it changed over, different decor but room size and design is essentially the same.
Nene I started in 2002 going every other year by 2010 it was once a year, this past year I went twice. I have done a few trips where I stayed at 2 different properties.
Circus circus is my favorite place I’ve ever stayed it’s so awesome. If people are that picky stay at home then you can bitch about how bad things are to yourself lmao it’s Vegas everything’s great it’s the greatest place on earth
Circus Circus, famous for advertising $20 room rates and by the end of booking it's $70. That's why Vegas will eventually crash. I'm tired of it and have found a better place to go. Too bad, I used to love Vegas.
Resort fees are a joke, fortunately diamond members don’t have to pay resort fees at Caesars properties but I’m sure eventually that will change too, especially since they’re under new management now
@Daniel Toth The only thing I said was..they advertise $20 a night rates and it isn't accurate when all is said and done. You just filled in the rest with inaccurate and made up assumptions. Are you drunk?
I also recommend The Stratosphere and Ellis Island as a good place to stay in Vegas on a budget. Crafted Buffet is a bargain at the Strat for $23 for dinner for adults and Ellis Island has a $9 steak dinner special and $2.75 beers brewed on site. Circus could have put a fridge in the room and that would have made the room more comfortable.
Been going to Vegas since 2007, go for a week once a year. Stay at Circus Circus every year. Get a players card and use it. Now when I stay I get comped for my room, haven’t paid for my room the last four years and no resort fees. Stay in the west tower, those rooms were updated about four years ago. Do not stay in the manors, they are bad. Stayed in the manors the first two years and would not recommend them to anyone. Stayed at Harare’s one year to pricey stayed at MGM, way to crowded and expensive. Remember what are you going to do in your room, for me I sleep and take a shower. What else do you need a fancy room for. Can honestly say I have never watched tv, why go to Vegas to do this. I still get up and down the strip at least two time during my stay. And down to Fremont street at least once.

The cheapest hotel on the strip is the Travelodge right next door to Circus Circus. I dare you!
Haha calling that a hotel is pushing it 😆
The Travel Lodge is a motel not a hotel.
Randy Sager And from what I hear, even that is a generous term.
@@moose9784 Lol that could be. I haven't heard one way or the other
@@randysager3660 The Westward Ho was a motel too, but it even had it's own casino.

never stayed there but I played penny slots there at 3 am and won 600 bucks
no offense cathy but im gonna rob you
That's awesome! I won a jackpot on pennies once & got 10$! It was still exciting to win!💰🚀
How cool

Is Slots a Fun still there??
@@j.m.r.7168 Yes
Looks like they haven’t upgraded the furniture since I stayed there in December 1980, but at least they got rid of the fake leopardskin bedspreads.
🤣🤣
😂😂😂
They remodeled the rooms about 5 years ago(2015) which far from 1980..
Leopard skin would have been an IMPROVEMENT! I mean ANYTHING would be an improvement on that room!
The purpose of a hotel room in vegas is to make you want to leave the hotel room and spend money in the casino. Everything from room quality to TV channel selection is designed on purpose to make you want to go downstairs and spend money on the games.
Also, the beeping was probably the smoke detector. While they are hardwired for power, there's a battery backup and it'll beep when the battery needs changing.
Also, if you want a minifridge, call down stairs and they'll bring one up. Many people travel with medication that needs chilling.
Sam Paul right! I haven’t seen many coffee maker in vegas strip rooms... they need you in the casino or at least walking through!
That is honestly so crazy to think about, but sounds really accurate...
Slots are loose there when I can take a $500 bankroll and roll it into $7000 I don’t care how the room looks.
The nicer the place the tighter the slots
loose as a goose
Yeah! Cause they gotta pay to keep it plush! LOL!!
Tell that to the casinos downtown. I remember the first time I was in Vegas in the early 90's, that's where all the loose slots were. Places like Binions, 4 Queens, Fremont, Plaza, even the Nugget was ok. They used to be the places I would hit if I wanted slots. Now all those places are tighter than a nun's....well you get the idea...in order to save money and cling to survival.

I was born in 1984. Therefore, I never had the chance to experience those deals. However, I love these comments. Thank you very much for sharing Tom!
Thats crazy!
Feel like Vegas change drastically after the Riviera got knocked down
Can anybody tell me why was the Desert Inn purchased to put a Wynn and an Encore hotels over there?
I too remember that the Rivera had some delicious food back then in the late 1980's.

I know right? I love just walking around at the hotels when im on the strip. Its so fun!
I “stayed” at the Manor about 2/3ish years ago. We got in fairly late that night and basically just went to bed. I went to the bathroom at about 4 in the morning and saw a roach. We let the front desk know and they immediately moved us to the casino tower. A huge difference!
Oh gosh 😳. Glad they moved u!

Thank you, glad you found it helpful!
Don’t leave your luggage 🧳 open on the bed, good way to pick up “bed bugs 🐛” and then haul them home 🏡.
This.
Tony Z you must of mistaken me for someone who gives a”fuck!”
Lol Ive never worried about bed bugs my whole life. Doubt I'll start until I see one 😂
Gross
i loved circus circus so much!! it was so good for the price. i love the older vibes it makes me feel so comfy :3 i loved the little shops to and the adventure dome was so cool! i would go there again. btw, i asked the people for a mini fridge and they gave it to us for the time of our stay!!
Don't ever leave luggage on a hotel bed. Many hotels do have bed bugs. They can crawl in your bags and then you take them to your home. Yuck.
And that can happen in the top notch hotels as well.
Im not that worried about it lol
If the bed bugs are bad, you don't have to put your stuff on the bed. You could have it anywhere in the room and it'll be an issue.
😱😱😱
If there in the room can’t they get into you luggage if they are on the ground or any furniture with fabric on it. Oh and yes the price does not mean there isn’t any bed bugs. The likelihood of the cheaper one having them is probably more.
Hi Annette, I am here to tell you that I have enjoyed watching this clip of yours because it is informative and it is exactly what type of rooms we got.
Thanks for uploading this clip of yours for us to see.

It was awesome when i was a kid in the early/mid 1980's. When i was +21 everyone said to avoid it. I've walked through it once or twice since then.
The Adventuredome at Circus Circus is open around 10AM-12PM daily. Circus acts are free. Games and rides, you pay for. A great place for kids. One thing, you cannot leave your kids there (it is illegal). Other places for kids are the Secret Garden at the Mirage, and the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay (both charge admission)
Great honest review! I agree with the beds... Great nights sleep and the pillows were better comfort than the Bellagio!! Circus Circus is what it is, its cheap, the room is fine and there is enough to do in the hotel if your bored compared to the other cheap ones. Obviously if you want modern and classy, you don't stay here but for fun gambling on a monday night... its alright!
Exactly. You gotta see it for what it is and not compare it to the new hotels
I stayed there about 12 years ago, we had a great time. I thought the kiosks through the upper floors were cool, I got my kids some things from there. Plus the smell of that place in the morning when they were making those donuts was amazing! I will say the parking garage is kinda scary. 🍩 Edit....loving the look! ❤🤍❤
Yea the upstairs is really cool!!
@@lasvegaswithannette584 Annette that was a alarm clock sweetheart!! I use to own one that sounded exactly like that back in the 1990's!! Great video and you look beautiful as always!!!
Personally I wouldnt touch anything in this room without gloves especially the bed spread.
I once booked a room in the manor lodge and ended up sleeping in my truck. Place should be condemned. Never walk barefoot in a motel
Lol ouch
Gross
Totally agree! :)
Oh my goshhh, your entire look put a smile on my face. 😻 Absolutely BEAUTIFUL as always!!! I can’t explain your gorgeousness.
Aww thank you!
I agree I'm crushing after watching this video. Very Beautiful lady. Beond average in beauty.
Jerry Owens u just wanna smash
We stayed at the Circus Circus about 90 times over the course of 20 years. We never paid a cent for the rooms because we were members of the One Club (slot club) and had accrued a lot in comps. I can see you stayed in the West Tower. We stayed there many times but after their last remodel, about 3/4 of the rooms in the West Tower had adjoining rooms with those damn steel interconnecting doors. When your neighbors come in at 2 A.M. and start arguing, the sounds go right through those doors. The last few years we picked the Main or "Casino" Tower.
Thats awesome! I try to just take the room they give me to get the best representation of what will happen to other people when they book the same room, but thanks for sharing, thats helpful if people read it!
90 times wow I couldn't do 1
@@demetriushill9725 For years I've carried a UV flashlight in my travel kit. As soon as I get to a room, I turn off all the lights and inspect the bathroom, bedding, walls and carpet. At Circus Circus the bathrooms and bedding have always been clean. (Otherwise I would have changed rooms immediately) I can't say the same for places on the walls or carpet, but I know what areas not to touch.
Wow! Your green eye shadow with flashes of pink when you blink looks fantastic!
🍩 I made it to the end! (Great vid by the way. Keep ‘em coming!)
Thank you so much!
It honestly doesn’t look too bad! 💕
Yea it wasnt!
$78 for that room is a RIPOFF unless there was some special reason that ALL hotel rooms were expensive at the time of the stay. I payed half that price for 4Queens and it' was a much nicer room in much better condition. They can't even claim it's because Circus Circus is a strip hotel because it is SO SO far down the strip from the rest of the action that it might as well be the Strat or downtown as far as I'm concerned. Thank you for taking one for team.
Thanks for the tour. I was always curious, but since I have a thing with clowns- the thought of going to Circus Circus never crossed my mind. I love your demeanor, make-up and voice. Keep up the great work!🤗
Q: Is Circus Circus as bad as people say it is?
A: No, it's worse.
LMAO!!!!!!
I've stayed there several times over the years. I like it with the exception of the time that they put me in the manor on a holiday weekend. It was like a motel six, filled with 20 somethings partying. I like playing craps in their casino, and it's the most reasonable priced buffet on the strip.
It isn't bad at all. Morons are the ones that say it is bad. I am absolutely right.
Loved your video, Annette! :) When in Vegas, I love staying at Circus Circus! Honestly, it is a blast! It has a lot to offer including a water park, Adventuredome theme park, circus acts, awesome food including the legendary "The Steakhouse," and the rooms are very nice! Plus, I love clowns! I was just there last Thurs-Sat :)
Thanks! Its such a cool place. People need to stop hatin on CC lol
I love circus circus it's amazing I don't understand why people say they don't like it. I also love the Nugget.
RIGHT?! I think Golden Nugget will be my next staycation!
@Sara Ford I love the Golden Nugget shark tank. And location on freemont street. About a minute walk to the hotel in back to the Future 2. That they called pleasure paradise. Also it's close to paradise Buffett on Fremont Street. Heartatck grill is near by. Not to far from busses. The big TV over head on Fremont is amazing. And people zip lining over head. Street performers live shows. Outside bar at Golden gate. And so much More. It's rely undisriable. And living a dream when you actually are there. I love it all so much.
@Sara Fordlas Vegas blvd by mgm is nice too. My favorite horell and casino on l v bld. Is circus circus. I heard it may be remodeled. Ii hope they don't destroy it's autentensity by doing so. It's so perfect as is. Old may need made new. But that old place is so beautiful the way it is. Life is sad always changing.
@Sara Ford I was in Mandalay Bay sence the shooting. It smelled like a war zone was hard to breathe. And our lungs hurt for a month after going in there. I hope it's had time to air out and be better. The sky mall connecting the casinos is awesome.
I loveee your makeup channel
I'm so excited I found this
Stay at the 4 Queens. It would be a really cheap room because they don't charge resort fees.
I'll put it on my list!
I agree! I want to see some Fremont hotels. I'm a local and we go to Fremont more than the strip (and container park)
I'd like to see those compared as well. Thanks! Great videos as usual
I agree with mark, four queens my favorite when i visit vegas.
The price on the catfish dinner is insane, $30! It's not even a whole catfish, it's a fillet, and all you get with it is rice and a vegetable. I am in Washington Il. and I have a place about half a block from me that has a catfish dinner for $11.99, and on friday it's only $10.99. And you get a 1 lb. whole catfish, baked potato or fries, salad, vegetable, and a hot roll. They also give you two packets of gourmet crackers and lemon wedges and tartar sauce. The same place also has a bluegill dinner for $8.99, that is all fillets, usually 6 of them, with all the same sides as the catfish dinner.
I LOVEEEEE these videos!!!!💜💜💜
Yay!!
I stayed their in 2007 very safe and nice.. if your not into the wild amd hollering .this is the place from pool to casino all good with me I was 48 at the time.
I have stay at Circus Circus several times never had a problem with it. The pizza place has awesome food
Yeah I dont get the hate for the place
I have not stayed at the Excalibur in a long time. Always used to be one of my favorite places, I would love to see you stay there and see what you think! :)
I enjoyed the pizza myself on my last visit.😋😊
1st time viewer!
You are so cute! I love your look. Especially your nails :)
I think as you do this more you'll just get better and better.
Like you'll show us more of the actual hotel and not just you chilling in the room and one trip to CC.
(I subscribed.)
I like the subject of the channel and I look forward to checking out more of your videos!
Greetings from Ottawa Ontario Canada.
Hi Annette. I'm with you, if I go away on a holiday I like to indulge myself in a more swish hotel!!!
I don't think that makes us snobs lol, but I absolutely get your point about being on a budget.
I must say that I was pleasantly surprised at how very clean the room etc looked. It seems great value for money, especially if you're not planning on spending much time in the room. Also a comfy bed is an essential!!!
Wishing you A Very Happy Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2020🎄🥂🎅⛄, with love from London ❤.
Yea it really wasnt too bad! Ive heard horror stories and people warning me to bring my own sheets and all kinda stuff, so i didnt know what to expect lol. Merry christmas to you as well!
Made it all the way through...thanks for the vid! 🍩
Oh, you are the Texas holdem player!! Don't know why it took me so long to make the connection,, I watch and play poker all the time! Love your videos, !!
😉thanks!
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
Thanks!
It is old and it was also just sold. They are going to redo this hotel a piece at a time. Keep your eye on it!
As long as they don't demolish it! That hotel is classic and deserves to be restored. They NEVER shoulda demolished the Stardust and Dunes. I was traumatized by that loss!
I agree, I hope they keep it too!
Nene Definitely shouldn’t! Circus Circus is my favorite hotel to stay at. Even when I was a kid. I loved looking at Stardust when we arrived there because of the retro look colors. I just love themed hotels. Las Vegas is becoming too modernized with these new hotels (Aria/Vdara, Cosmopolitan, Planet Hollywood, Resorts World) and getting rid of the classic themed hotels. It looks bright but dull.
I just hope it doesn’t ruin the pricing. This is my husband’s favorite place to stay (and mine!) because we aren’t big on the fancy schmancy parts of Vegas. We are big kids so Circus Circus is perfect for us.
I loved staying at Circus Circus when I was a kid, (late '80s) it was so much fun! I've been binge-watching your videos. Love your content. :)
Everyone who had kids and was middle class stayed at Circus Circus in the 1980s and early 1990s. But by the year 1998 it started to go downhill and by 2004 it was ghetto.
Las Vegas has changed immensely since I first vacationed there in 1991. Many old hotels are gone and new ones in their place. Room rates aren’t the bargains they used to be even in the better resorts, and not just due to resort fees. Same for many of the restaurants. Everything was geared to get you to spend money in the casinos. Room quality can vary greatly, too. I’ve stayed at Circus Circus a couple times. The rooms were passable; similar in quality to a Motel 6 or an older Super 8. The overall rule is “you get what you pay for.” Don’t expect to spend 30-40 per night on a room and have a Room with the quality of a Hilton or Sheraton. If you want a better quality room, expect to pay more. Gambling isn’t as big a draw as it used to be in Vegas, so prices reflect that. I do dislike the resort fees. It would be much more honest to bump up the room rates and make it amenities inclusive like it used to be. I can’t really speak to having to pay for parking because I have flown into Vegas for most of my trips; the times I did drive there was long before parking fees were started. Overall, I feel the parking fees just serve to hurt the locals or the people who live close enough to make frequent weekend trips.
I totally agree you get what you pay for, and I think some people forget that sometimes and think that just because its a vegas hotel, its gonna be amazing even if its cheap. I also think there should just be one price listed for the room with the resort fee included
I agree ...I first went in 1994...totally different now with room rates and everything...I remember you could get a really good prime rib dinner for dirt cheap back then at Binion's Horseshoe
God bless you for staying at Circus Circus. I was there last May with a friend so I could play at their casino and within minutes of stepping into the place I started to itch. I vowed that I would never step foot into that place again. The entire place had a moldy smell to it.
Hahaha really?? I think I'm just not that fussy 😂
That "free" internet is part of the obscene resort fee.
Resort fees are part of the price of the room, the reason they are good is that travel sites like expedia and so on take a percentage of room rate sometimes close to 25%, they do not take it from the resort fee. So if they charged the room + resort fee as the actual rate they would make less per room and you know what that means the price goes up even more.
izbo10 What kind of jerk books through Expedia?
I don’t but plenty do so don’t bite the hand that feeds you by complaining about something keeping prices down
Dennis Farrell most non resorts in Vegas have free WiFi so. No the WiFi is not part of the resort fee.
Hello Annette. One of your vids magically showed up in my YT feed. I've always wanted to check out Vegas, and even more now that a few friends of mine have moved there from the LA area, and my Raiders are there now too...LOVE your makeup and style as well. Great work!! I sub'd!
Krispy Kreme is my favorite part of Circus Circus!
Yesssss!!
so i guess you only like krispy Kreme, which has nothing to do with circus circus. Just say you like krispy kreme lol
Great Video! I hope you do a video on the Cosmopolitan hotel soon. Thanks! Best Wishes! 🇺🇸
When I visit the states, I stayed in Days Inn and it's not so bad. I am used to staying in 3 stars motels.
Yea it depends what u compare it to
Fellow local here, parking at circus is decent. Two small garages and an open air lot for larger vehicles and RVs. Plus it's free, i usually park here whenever I'm just walking the strip.
I know you said you’re planning to do one on Luxor, do you have a planned date for it? I’m very curious to watch one because I’m going to be there at the end of the month! Curious to see your view on it and then mine as well.
I havent booked anything yet, no, I think my next stay will be Golden Nugget. I try to alternate between cheap/more expensive hotels, so maybe in 3 months or so
@@lasvegaswithannette584 Thank you for your response!
Of course!
My first time in Vegas I stayed in the manor and it's pretty much just like a Motel 6, the next time I upgraded to the towers and it was only like $8 more a night but I got $40 in drink vouchers so it was actually cheaper and way better!
Sounds like an alarm clock going off!
Can you do an updated vegas hotel cornavirus update? What is open at certain resorts currently? Glad you got into these videos!
That room looks more updated, the room i stayed in looked very outdated.
This honestly doesn’t look quite as bad as I thought. Based on reputation, was expecting the worst hotel ever, but it’s closer to a typical best western or dated four points & holiday inn. I heard the motor lodge side is super sketchy though.
The adventure dome seems pretty cool, and I hear circus circus has some really decent steak.
Nice video :)
Same here, I was pleasantly surprised for sure! I did read some horrible reviews about the motor lodge tho lol. I do think they should make it more obvious on the site that its not part of the actual hotel. Thats what most of the complaints said, and on top of them not knowing it sucked lol.
West tower is nice. I got a pretty cool deal compared to the tower you stayed at
Watched a few of your wonderful videos. I've never stayed in LV. I've heard that most places have no coffee pot..?? I assume there are ice machines??
I've stayed at a lot of hotels in Vegas but the one place I've always been curious about that I have not stayed at is the Four Seasons. I've stayed at Mandalay Bay but not the Four Seasons part of it. xoxo Deb
Ill def stay at mandalay at some point. Im trying to stick to the well known ones for now when im trying to get people to find my channel, but down the line when ive gone through all of the big hotels ill hopefully get around to trying like the extra hotels 😄
I used to stay at a $29night room at Circus Circus in Reno all the time. It was a great room. It was a regular $49/night but as a preferred customer, we got a special deal cause we went multiple times a year. If you just want a basic room, they’re fine. Have nice service & never had a problem. Went multiple times a year for like 10yrs.
I can hear a very, very slight accent in your voice... especially words that end with T. Maybe Dutch or Swedish possibly? Also, your eyeshadow colors reminds me of the iridescent green of a male Mallard duck's head... that's a compliment by the way. 😁
Hahah thank you! Youre good, those are close guesses, im Norwegian!
Thanks for the info on Circus Circus Hotel... I was planning my trip and one of my choices was circus circus. 👍
I like your green hair. It's my favorite color.
Thanks!
Stayed at a room here last year. It was a first time experience coming to Vegas and I thought it was great. However, you're great with being honest about the rooms and I whole heartily agree with your comments about the room. Nice informative video and your face makeup looks hott.
Thank you!
I think the big secret is to avoid the Manor "motel" kind of category when you are booking....
Yea thats what the reviews said
Agreed. We stayed in a Tower room and it wasn't bad.
Makeup, hair is perfect! So pretty!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Honestly, Circus Circus is not bad at all. To each their own. I went there when I was a kid to hang out at the Midway & Adventuredome in the late ‘90s. We were staying at Lady Luck at the time (which is now known as Downtown Grand). Then we started staying at CC every year since 2004. Sure, the hotel needs more of a refresh than an upgrade/renovation (repaint the pink of the towers and the Big Top, update some of the furniture, carpets, etc.) and I’m looking forward to what Phil Ruffin has in store for CC, including the wave machine and the sand beaches!
Totally agree!
Nice job with the commentary. I haven't been to Vegas in over 10 years but last time I was there I stayed at the Sahara. There was NOT a hefty resort fee at that time and like Dennis said below, that's probably where the FREE internet factors in. I suspect it may be similar at other hotels in the city
I just stayed there last week :( dirty, over priced, ants in room and amenity's were crappy to say the least. DONT STAY HERE!!!! You will thank yourself!
I stay there once but on 6th floor nothing too bad in the room but I have an experience ghost orb appeared and disappeared with my own eyes
@@vce.john1734 You should have asked If the ghost wanted some coffee.
Stayed at Circus Circus last June. I usually stay at the Linq for the location. Circus Circus has an undeserved bad reputation. The room was nice. Depending on the time, every hotel has lineups. One thing, no security to watch who goes up the elevators. When I went in June, charged the resort fee when I checked in. Think their breakfast buffet is the best I have had (good dinner too). It is in the more seedy part of the Strip. Don't walk at three in the morning
Did they place a hold for incidentals?
Please do more like this!
Coming very soon!
Even motels here in Tennessee have microwaves and fridges in the rooms. Lately, they are even furnishing blow dryers.
Room rates and resort fees higher than Excaliber and Harrahs? Hard pass on this out of the way resort!!!
My family would stay there all the time. Free flights and sharing a room in the circus. I remember it fondly.
Felt itchy just watching it! Great video tho.
Me too! Itchy and STICKY!!! But yes, it was a fun video!
I love how your eye shadow matches your hair! I'm glad you didn't eat at the buffet as its horrible - especially for breakfast....
I stayed here beginning of the year , might need to go back for the donuts lol
Hahaha the donuts were the best part!!
Great video. Thank you for sharing!
20 minute wait to check in doesn’t seem too bad. Check in line at Flamingo - got there at 3:00am and waited in line for 3.5 hours to check in. 🤬
Children sleeping on the floor.
Jeez, thats unacceptable...
Also before I forget, when you film the night views from your window shut your lights off inside the room. I'm gonna keep on checking out your videos and see if you take my advice. LoL. Keep up the great videos.
The noise was the alarm clock in the room next store.
🍩🍩🍩
We stayed here a few years ago, 15 I believe, and it's a okay place for base camp. We ate and drank everywhere else.
No way I could stay there. You can get much better mid strip for $20 more. That place smells like mold.
$37 resort fee horrible!
I feel a deep depression there
Gross
Def.not without a male ....
Kool video keep it up I go to Vegas 4 times a year so I like to see what’s going on
Thanks! What are your fav places to stay?
Keep on recording
Always call the front desk when you have bad noises and people breathing hard.
Really great video, thank you for sharing.
Thanks!!
stay at delano, best cheapest room on the strip and ive stayed at encore, venetian, wynn, caesars, cosmo, planet hollywood, mgm grand, bellagio and more.
Just how often do you visit Vegas?
I stayed there once when it was called The Hotel, and it was amazing!
@@lasvegaswithannette584 i first stayed when it was the hotel as well, have stayed 3 more times since it changed over, different decor but room size and design is essentially the same.
Nene I started in 2002 going every other year by 2010 it was once a year, this past year I went twice. I have done a few trips where I stayed at 2 different properties.
We've been wondering about the rooms at Circus Circus and now we know! Thanks for doing this! 🍩
Theyre not bad eh!
I stay here every year. Just upgrade to the Casino Tower! Even with the upgrade, it's still cheaper than any other hotel.
Circus circus is my favorite place I’ve ever stayed it’s so awesome. If people are that picky stay at home then you can bitch about how bad things are to yourself lmao it’s Vegas everything’s great it’s the greatest place on earth
Lmao i totally agree
Thanks for the review I helped out a lot, taking the kids there this weekend for the first time.
Have fun!
Circus Circus, famous for advertising $20 room rates and by the end of booking it's $70. That's why Vegas will eventually crash. I'm tired of it and have found a better place to go. Too bad, I used to love Vegas.
Lol Vegas will always do well, people love it
@@lasvegaswithannette584 They are loving it less and less and the numbers are slowly turning.
Resort fees are a joke, fortunately diamond members don’t have to pay resort fees at Caesars properties but I’m sure eventually that will change too, especially since they’re under new management now
@Daniel Toth The only thing I said was..they advertise $20 a night rates and it isn't accurate when all is said and done. You just filled in the rest with inaccurate and made up assumptions. Are you drunk?
Emily !!!! Circus Circus hasn't advertised $20.00 room rates in forty years. That is a fact.
I also recommend The Stratosphere and Ellis Island as a good place to stay in Vegas on a budget. Crafted Buffet is a bargain at the Strat for $23 for dinner for adults and Ellis Island has a $9 steak dinner special and $2.75 beers brewed on site. Circus could have put a fridge in the room and that would have made the room more comfortable.
Nice, thanks!
I watch both channels, I’d there a tutorial for this eye look in the opening?
Coming tomorrowwwwwww!!
I really liked the Video. Can you please do this at the excalibur hotel next, we will be there in August, and booked also the cheapest room.
I def want to check out excalibur!
Those windows weren't dirty, they were crusty.
Gross
Been going to Vegas since 2007, go for a week once a year. Stay at Circus Circus every year. Get a players card and use it. Now when I stay I get comped for my room, haven’t paid for my room the last four years and no resort fees. Stay in the west tower, those rooms were updated about four years ago. Do not stay in the manors, they are bad. Stayed in the manors the first two years and would not recommend them to anyone. Stayed at Harare’s one year to pricey stayed at MGM, way to crowded and expensive. Remember what are you going to do in your room, for me I sleep and take a shower. What else do you need a fancy room for. Can honestly say I have never watched tv, why go to Vegas to do this. I still get up and down the strip at least two time during my stay. And down to Fremont street at least once.
