Of all the scams and hustles in Las Vegas the Carlo’s Bakery Cake Vending Machines iritate me the most. Everything about these brightly colored treat fulled machines promise joy and deliver old, stale disappointment. If you or someone you know has been victimized by this dessert, here is your safe space. THE CAKE IS A LIE. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #carlosbakery #badcake #cakevendingmachine

Obviously America is going through it right now, but specifically in Las Vegas and at MGM Resorts it feels like we are gearing up for lower tourism, a possible recession and department closings. With quiet rounds of layoffs taking place every couple of weeks, is this a restructuring or something bigger? #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegashotels #vegaslocal

Cleanest and best inexpensive Las Vegas hotel rooms over the last 6 months of inspecting everything from the cheap and sketchy to the ultra luxury resorts. This is part of my series where I book a standard room, third party and anonymously, at every hotel in Vegas and show you everything you need to know. I’m inspecting mattresses, cleanliness, looking for bed bugs, testing water pressure and smells. No influencer trickery or arranged visits, this is a look at what you can expect at each resort. The best three of the budget hotels include Sahara, New York NY anf Linq. While these are some of the least expensive accommodations in town, they still prioritize cleanliness, amenities and guest service. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegashotels #bedbugs #hotelinspector #vegasluxury #vegasvacation #vegasonabudget #downtownlasvegas #oyolasvegas #riolasvegas #hotelinspector #dtlv #vegasstrip #vegasonabudget #vegashotelrooms #vegasnews #vegasreview #wheretostayinvegas #starfishstays #vegasplanning #affordablevegas #vegasroomtour #luxuryhotel #vegassuite #hotelinspector

I genuinely enjoyed my Sprinkles cupcakes. They were delicious and high quality. I did not enjoy being the spotlight of a very loud song about how much I love cake for a full minute in a busy mall. I will now go enjoy a salad and think about what I’ve done. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegaslocal #sprinklescupcake

I found cake from a Las Vegas vending machine that isn’t awful. No, it isn’t the Cake Boss vending machines. I tried Sprinkles dessert cupcakes and I understand the hype.

How to tip the front desk to recieve a room upgrade and why using the Las Vegas “sandwich trick” of hiding a $20 between your credit card and ID is outdated and unnecessary. An upgrade may simply mean a higher floor, a more recently renovated room or even a suite. Ask for what you want if you have something specific in mine, be kind, patient, polite and use these best practices to increase your chances of an improved, nicer hotel room. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegashotels #hotelupgrade

Canadians are not visiting the United States right now for a litany of reasons. The effects of this are only just beginning to be felt in Las Vegas, but by the time we realize the impact, it may be too late for market correction. We need to be having a serious conversation about creating value and ensuring the safety of our international guests. Our travel & tourism economy depends on it. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #canada #vegasnews #vegaslocal

I will be the first one to share the news if occupancies plummet and room rates crash, but for now let’s use data and facts to maintain accuracy. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegasnews #vegaslocal
