You seem oblivious to the fact you're not actually getting the use out of it. Great logic!
Simple enough to check - see the coverage maps. Here's T-Mobile:
In that section of the country (after leaving Vegas) there are a lot of places where T-Mobile has no coverage.

That is true but it does not always reflect what it says for T-Mobile or any other provider's network map coverage site.
Is that so you can leave your phone streaming in your pocket and make sure you use your data allowance while away from home? Be a shame to waste it.
No that is done at the hotel with my iPad with the internet there.
No such thing as unlimited high speed data 4g lte on cellular/wireless provider
Yes. But all of those near areas which have no coverage is a warning that there may be problems. Obviously a report from a person who has been there would be best.
I don't need to link or provide a source. There are many carriers around the world that provide unlimited 4G/5G data. It's common knowledge and if you don't believe me, that's your problem. Use Google.
That's vegas for you, every hotel has those fees. I used to work for priceline and one of the biggest complaints we got was from people who didn't understand that all Vegas hotels charge resort fees.
You mentioned a price, I was curious how long a hotel stay, and ideally not a Motel 6.
From the East Coast to Vegas that sounds like a good deal, however I am not a Vegas person.You mentioned a price, I was curious how long a hotel stay, and ideally not a Motel 6.
The hotel is on the strip.
In addition to the aggrevation of the extra fees, transportation is my #2 peeve about Vegas. If you use your car for transportation on the strip, you have to deal not only with traffic but with parking fees to the places you go. Not sure, but you might even have to pay again for parking at your hotel (?). Cabs are not cheap either, can easily be > $25.
They do have a monorail which runs at the back of the east side casinos. These properties are huge, so it can be 1500 feet to go from the strip to the monorail, and another 1500 feet to get back to the strip. That is over 1/2 of a mile, and a lot of time, just to move to one location. If you try to walk on the strip from one casino to the next it again is about 1500 feet each. Learned this the hard way while trying to get to a show. "That's only 5 casinos away". A direct line in the strip would make this a 1.5 mile walk. If you go through the casinos themselves, the way the make your serpentine through it is probably over 2 miles.
Did use a bus a couple of times, but not enough to say whether they are a worthwhile alternative.
Thanks good to know but Uber and Lyft are a little better price wise.
