My friends and I decided to head up to Elko to go swimming at the High Desert Inn. BIG MISTAKE!
After swimming for about an hour I saw a young unsupervised child standing on the stairs peeing in the pool. How did I know the child was peeing you ask, because she was screaming it at the top of her lungs.
An over crowded pool full of irresponsible teenagers (playing chicken not two feet from a 2 year old with water wings on) and pissing screaming children.
Needless to say we decided to head to the bar across the lobby.
Expensive drinks and crappy service. The creepy bartender was drinking and offering off free shots (free if you can guess whats in it I guess?) and paid more attention to the game of pool he was playing than what his customers were actualy ordering. The front desk clerk was too busy to answer phones because she was flirting with the boys in the back of the bar.
Deciding that maybe dinner would go better my friends and I paid the tab and left for dinner.
Our next stop was a gas station to get gas and head out of town quick. Well it turns out the bartender gave my friend back someone elses card. No idea how this happened because the bartender took my friend's ID to "confirm" that it was his card.
So, after a crappy day we were now stuck in Elko (unable to buy gas to get home or a room to stay the night.)
When we got back to the High Desert Inn the night staff was very helpful. And the security guard was extreamly helpful. We wound up getting a comped a room with two beds (there were four of us). suposively the executive suite. Only half the lights had bulbs. I burned myself on the coils of the refrigerator trying to plug in the coffee maker, the phone didn't work to call the front desk, the carpet was stained and so were the sheets, the remote only worked at the end of the bed, there was a giant hair ball in the drain of the shower and no trash can to be found, the beds were hard and the pillows smelled like someone rubbed their nasty butt all over them. Not to mention they couldn't have put us in a room farther away from everything if they tried. (my husband is disabled and on a cane, NOT OKAY) I couldn't sleep because I always have a problem sleeping if someone besides my husband is in the room. So I got to stay awake for 34 Hours before I could get home and get into bed.
Now I know I shouldn't complain about a comped room, but SERIOUSLY? The bartender messes up and WE have to suffer for it? Screw that!
Luckly the card situation got fixed the next day due to our own efforts to track the guy that had my friend's card down, we made it home safe and sound but late for everything we had to do the next day.

SO TO SUM UP
The pool sucks
The Bar sucks
The afternoon/evening shift sucks
The rooms suck

The secutiry officers and night desk clerks are awesome

NEVER AGAIN.
Next time I will just go to a movie.
