Read<\/a>: 2009 Dirtiest Hotels<\/a><\/p>\n

Years ago, I stayed in a Vegas casino hotel, the Stardust<\/a>, that had been remodeled so many times, that the ceiling panels in the hall ways in one of the hotel towers actually dropped lower than the top of the frame of many doors!!!

Thankfully, it\u2019s no more (read<\/a>).<\/p>\n
