LETTER: Keep the value in Las Vegas

T. Mayer of Las Vegas wrote in a letter dated September 6, 2026, at 9:00 pm that after reviewing the Review‑Journal’s Thursday piece headlined “Labor Day tourism to beryllium robust, experts say,” it is evident that local hotels and resorts have not internalized any lessons from the recent holiday weekend. He argued that the posted rates were “greedily precocious” and designed to overcharge visitors, asserting that short‑term profit remains the only goal of current lodging offerings. Mayer added that, despite much talk, there has been little demonstrable change among the properties shaping visitors’ perception of Las Vegas as a good‑value destination, and that the LVCVA and its partners appear to have learned nothing.
