when you think of Las Vegas the first thing that comes to mind is bustling
casinos luxurious resorts and fine dining what most people don't think
about is what would happen if people just stopped visiting these casinos
around 30 minutes outside of Las Vegas is a prime example of what happens when
guests stop visiting a casino during its prime hundreds of visitors
flocked here to try and strike it rich in their gambling hall there are even
plans to build in 160 acre community around the casino but in 2008 when the
recession hit business drastically dropped here since the recession the
resort has slowly fallen into disrepair in 2011 business was going so poorly
here that they were forced to close the 500 room hotel tower tonight our goal is
to get into that very Tower and see what remains of the once immaculate hotel
what's up everyone so we just made it to the Gold Strike Hotel as you guys can
see behind me so what a lot of people don't realize while they're visiting
here is back in 2011 MGM decided to scale back a lot of their operations
here at this hotel and in doing so they actually closed a 500 room hotel tower
so in this video our goal is to go check out that Tower come on let's go take a
look guys right up here we're gonna have Hotel aleene's so we're gonna go ahead
over to the South Tower for a casino that's already not very busy the moment
you step down the hallway for the South Tower
it just becomes dead so we just made it to the abandoned hotel Tower and it took
me a little while to find this place just because I wanted to make sure I was
in the right Tower and I wasn't just going into random rooms but fortunately
enough for me we are in the right Tower so let's go start taking a look around
guys so we're gonna start our explore on floor 8 just because floor number 3
isn't really all that dilapidated yet and it's pretty well locked up and I'm
pretty sure someone's living on the seventh floor because I heard the water
faucet turn off downstairs while I was in the hallway and then no one would
answer me as I called out for them so fairly positive someone's squatting
there there's a bat flying in the hallway but right here we're gonna have
the first room we'll check out 1801
here's a prime example of some of the disrepair that's going on here this was
a hotel in Vegas you would never see shit like this happen it's got the punk
the old bed frame stressors mattresses
yo whoa fuck that bat bro that bat just flew straight at us did you guys just
see it guys there's the bat I don't want to shine a light into it dies cuz I just
realized it's probably not good for bats but there's the bat that just
dive-bombed us again here we have another room whoo that's mold we're up
with that
an old Bell card over their chairs just so many chairs right here we have some
more rooms all right and here we are in the safest looking elevator possible and
we're gonna head up to floor 9 you know what no fuck floor 9
so I plus before 9 but I guess we're going to floor 12
I guess the elevator is also broken now yeah this is oh no man that was really
weird here's the 12th floor again kind of
weird considering I plus press the 9th floor in the 11th floor I'm pretty sure
here we go hello
so here we have another room up here and it seems like they haven't quite gotten
to these rooms yet to deconstruct them you guys can still see the lamps
something I noticed before I left this room right here look at this
artwork they still have up here in any other abandoned building that would be
destroyed like 100% that would have been the first thing vandals destroyed it's
nice to see that there are some abandoned buildings that haven't been
completely destroyed yet that's the paintings then over here look
at this the Gold Strike bought Bonanza buffet
this looks like it was probably one of the cages boxes or maybe something for
bets or something I don't know that was in a hotel room though I can
guarantee you guys that here we have more stuff just left here from the
cleaning clue right here we have another interesting room so let's go take a look
here I don't know what this stuff was
yeah I have no clue what that is if you guys know down in the comments let me
know this right here it appears to be a bunch of the slot machine stuff when the
end when MGM scaled back their operations here that was one of the
other things they did was they cut back a lot of the gaming stuff they had here
like the slot machines and such pretty sure this is some of the remnants of
that bad all right let's see if this time we can go and hit some of those
lower floors
all right let's go to 11 alright guys so I totally lied both the
11th and 10th floor are completely locked up and there's nothing there we
can explore so we're gonna make our way down right now to the ninth floor and
let's see what we can find here guys so right off the bat we have a bunch of the
old stuff they used to have inside the casino I've got one of the beads carts
right here back here we have some cash back signs on the door it seems like we
have the cleaning log for what which room is needed to be cleaned maybe I
have no idea this is gonna be the last floor we'll check out right you've got
some wet floor signs let's take a look
let's let it get in focus in here is where all the maids would store their
cleaning supplies and such look at this
got your chemical logs right here bunch of it oh I don't think you guys realize
it's how unsettling this stuff is when you're here alone and this happens
hey this like the creepiness just goes up tenfold
you got your pullout carts right here though or pullout mattresses sorry right
here's one of the fire elevators and then you've got a whole bag cart right
here here we have some more rooms if you have some of the towels from what the
cleaning lady's set them up oh we have the TV still left in his in this room
in here we have to have all the lamps from
practically every hotel room geez look at this this literally looks like a
scene out of a horror movie right here like I'm expecting someone with the mask
to pop out any second right now which way was I going though this way then
here we have another room whoa what is this stuff I've got a gaming chair
hold it on before we check that out I know the camera picked that up there was
just some bowing out this window
yeah that's wild all right here we have the casino chairs let's figure out what
this is so this right here in these boxes are just paper towel dispensers
the ones you'd find in like schools or restaurants slash casinos whoa this one
has a lot of the stuff left in it they've got a brochure rack right there
it's some more of their gaming chairs
bro how many chairs did this casino have back here I don't know if you guys can
see that but get a burner cast iron pan I know why that's still here
all right so I know I said someone's definitely I didn't press the button I'm
not joking all right this is weird I don't like this I don't like that at all
it just took us to the 12th floor again but I know I said someone's living on
the seventh floor and that's why I don't want to be here but I'm pretty sure that
was just the toilets making some weird some weird noises if you were walking
down this hallway you would never be able to tell that these rooms aren't in
ruse it literally looks like cleaning ladies are cleaning out the rooms as we
speak
so I could very well just be like totally psyching myself out but I swear
to god those rooms they were all for opened it wasn't just two of them open
so I don't know if that for sure says someone's living in those rooms but I'm
not gonna risk it before I get going there's one thing I needed to talk to
you guys about real quick so in case you guys didn't know I'm currently in high
school and right now I'm on spring break so this Thursday me and my friends are
gonna be going to LA and if you guys have any spots out there you guys would
