Las Vegas on Trial

A reader says...

We went to a presentation about a year and a half ago in Anaheim. It pretty much matched the descriptions here. But we did sign of for the trial membership 12,000 credits for 1200 dollars I think.

We just used it this Christmas to go to Las Vegas for 3 days. I will say the room was nice, 2 bedrooms with a kitchen and living room. The kitchen was stocked enough for us to have family over for a xmas dinner. On the down side the construction of the building lacked a little. The elevator would stop working periodically for a few minutes, a valence fell off the patio door and the towel holder came off the wall. Oh and the carpet wasn't very clean white socks a little gray after a couple hours walking around.

Then we had to go through another 90 minutes high pressure sales on the first day to try and sell the whole package again. Even though we told them we bought a trial package and haven't even used 24hrs yet they still insisted on going through their spew.

Initially the only thing that puts me off is the maintenance fees at a little over 500 bucks a year. Whats to stop them from raising them over and over? Oh the sales people say the owner have to vote on that. Even if that's true how many city bonds get voted in year after year? Plus all the extra goodies they talk about are almost too good to be true.

Booking a month in advance got us our room in Vegas no problem, although right now we're having trouble booking in Colorado for spring break. Can't get a response to voice mail although it is Dec 27 hopefully by next week we'll get our reservation.

Then we'll post again.

Mmm. I wasn't aware of the Trial option. That would certainly help people who (quite rightly) aren't willing to hand over tens of thousands of dollars after a mere slide-show.

Let us know how it goes!
