Again, whose word are you taking on this claim? The picture shows the "hidden" security camera cart that was supposedly in front of Paddock's adjoining room and the room number. So why are you believing whoever told you "the room adjoining the suite was not a rental unit" over you own eyes?

Who provided the information that "the adjoining room was part and parcel to the complimentary suite, to use or not to use it was Paddock's whim alone"? Who said "it was not a room let out for rent"? When was this information released?

I have only been to Las Vegas once and it was 1975. I traveled with then GF to Los Cruses NM to visit friends at U of NM (and get p**). I think have mentioned that GF before, I lived with her 19-24 and she was an USFS archeologist that was +/- 6 years older. On the way back from NM we had gone to White Sands, high desert by Flagstaff and Grand Canyon and were camping and sleeping on a pad in back of pick up. We spent a night in Las Vegas on the strip but did not go down town.
Jill had gone to grad school at University of NV Reno and worked middle of the night shifts as a cocktail waitress at Harvey's and basically hated the whole casino thing. Neither of us were gamblers. But we wanted showers and a bed and some food and drink but it turned into a near all night mission. We went to 8 to 10 casinos on the strip and gathered all the matchbooks possible. No one ever stopped us but then we were sneaky. We got at least 2000 matchbooks. When we got home we put together mixed lots of casino matches for gifts. We gave casino match assortments to some folks for Christmas presents. Now 40 years later I can find some of those match books in the very room I sit.
I haven't been in NV in almost 20 years and not on any bucket list horizon.

There will be a strange memorial built at this location -- that is a given -- it will be saccharine and patriotic. I always wondered, really actually why that part of the strip never got developed. It's the only part of it that doesn't face jack shit. Wondered only for mundane reasons actually. Now I really wonder.

It's quite frustrating to take the time to answer your questions, and pointless, in fact, if you fail to recognize your question was answered.
Your first two questions have already been answered in this thread. The adjoining room was part and parcel to the complimentary suite, to use or not to use it was Paddock's whim alone. It was not a room let out for rent.
There have been hundreds of posts on thread. I thought some Aussie claimed that he had rented the adjoining room. I thought the reason the LVPD had Paddock's check in date wrong is because he paid for his suite while his original, earlier booked room had been comped. Who provided the information that "the adjoining room was part and parcel to the complimentary suite, to use or not to use it was Paddock's whim alone"? Who said "it was not a room let out for rent"? When was this information released? How does this jibe with Lombardo's claim that Paddock paid for his suite? Why would Paddock pay for a second room to use at his whim when the suite he paid for was more than large enough for a family of four?

It seems I got turned around somehow. Only the Tropicana is in between the venue and Hooters with Hooters only a block away from the venue. It would be logical to either seek shelter at the Tropicana or Hooters especially, because the emergency vehicles were queued there.
I know you're trying your best, elfis, and offering info on another shooter, but I've not seen any evidence to convince me another shooter or shooters were active during the few minutes the alleged shooter, Paddock, was firing his weapon or anytime after. No other audio or photos of another shooting elsewhere, with tens of thousands of people present? Not a person reported wounded at another site. Not a bullet hole or broken glass anywhere else.
