The Paradise Tower Paved Paradise and Showed Guests a Parking Garage
You know the scene. You open the door to your brand new hotel room, run over to the window, open the blinds and bam, you are hit with the anti-view. Maybe you are looking down a dirty alley, witnessing a drug deal, staring at an air shaft in the face, or seeing a brick wall. Whatever you are viewing it is not extremely pleasurable. Help out your fellow hotel mavens by uploading your anti-views to the HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool, or by sending the photo along to us. Remember to tell us the name of the hotel and the room number with the not-so-easy-on-the-eyes view.

We really hate to do two of the same anti-views in a row but this one from the Hard Rock Hotel's new Paradise Tower is worse than last week's construction eyesore.
A recent guest sent us these photos, which not only show the crap view that some rooms get of the Employee Parking lot but also just how much wear and tear the hotel rooms have suffered--and the hotel just opened on July 31st!
The disappointed guest writes:
I checked into a room at the new Paradise Tower at the Hard Rock yesterday, and found it to be a prefect specimen for your "anti-view" segment. Though I’ve never taken photos of a hotel room before, this one I couldn’t resist.
The room number was 30521. It was supposed to be a "mountain/ city view," but I’d categorize it as an "employee parking lot view," or, "some random guy’s Dodge Ram view." They have draconian policies (like a $100 an hour charge for late check-outs beyond 11AM), and they really don’t keep the place up (the old tower is in shambles).
Frankly, the only reason to even consider staying there is to go to Rehab (their Sunday pool party). Otherwise, the place is ridiculously expensive and has horrible service and food options.

That $100 penalty is pretty bad but considering how wild this hotel gets, we bet they make plenty of money off of that fee. Still, is it worth it?
Our sibling site, VegasChatter, also found that a long-time devotee of the HRH was extremely disappointed by the new tower. Meanwhile, we're still waiting for them to send us a copy of our hotel room bill for our expense reports. The first time someone hung up on us when we called. The second time, they promised to email it within 24 hours. That was on Monday.
