Guest reviews & verified fee notes for Fremont Street Experience & Viva Vision Canopy
Dayclub cabanas and resort daybeds add 8.375% sales tax, 9%–12% venue administrative fees, and 18%–20% automatic service charges onto quoted minimums.
Bought a $25 "infused preroll" and immediately upon lighting it figured out it was hemp. This wasn't indicated anywhere except in VERY small writing on the back of the preroll tube that is not visible in the display. Of course you can't take back something used, so that was just money out the window.
About 5 years ago, friends from back home in Illinois came to celebrate her 60th Bday.... I took 'em to Fremont. Dispensaries were still fairly new here. This was my first foray into a dispensary. I spent $75 on 10 gummies. Might as well been M&M's. I am so old, I can remember a time when if your weed dealer sold you oregano, he would get quite a beating. These people have earned a good one
There is a lady outside the shop with a protest sign that says this is HEMP not WEED. this is that bukkshit you can smoke for hours without effect. Nice if your trying to quit smoking 🚬 🚭 🙃
Garbage, overpriced! This is hemp, not weed. Do not get fooled. Paying money for garbage! Super rude people selling hemp for $44 a preroll. Than when you realize what happened they tell you you should read the signs which are no where to be found.
Don’t believe the people selling “weed” none of it has actual THC, including the edibles. They will straight up lie and say yes it does, but the package says it contains less than 0.3% THC
