Bison Steve Hotel

 is a hotel in Fallout: New Vegas, located in Primm in 2281.

Exterior
A semi-broken roller coaster track wraps around the building and 3 escaped convicts have taken positions on the tracks and 2-4 more are on the ground outside the hotel.

Interior
There are three floors. There is an elevator that can be repaired with a Repair skill of 35. Once repaired, it will lead to floors one and two. To get to floor three, you must walk up a crumbling platform/ceiling. You can also reach the second floor by means of a stairwell or walking across the roller coaster track (at the end of one part is a doorway to the second floor)

Notable loot

 * Outside
 * It is possible to climb up the broken track that hangs on the left side of the main entrance. Almost directly above the main door is a pair of binoculars, some Psycho, some Jet and a pack of cigarettes.

This floor is accessed from the front of the building.
 * Ground Floor
 * Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor - Northeast room (there is a sign beside it that reads "Gift Shop") lying on the ground against a Hard locked floor safe behind the cash registers.
 * Lucky - A powerful unique revolver in the northeast room (gift shop) just beyond the entrance, inside a Hard (75) locked floor safe behind the cash registers.
 * Incinerator - Drops off the Powder ganger leader in main room along with various ammo.
 * Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap is on a sofa's end table next to a bottle (the side table which is opposite the elevator).
 * There is a locked-hard door behind the check-in counter (on the right, as you enter). This door opens into a small room with random loot, refrigerator, first aid box, Bison Steve maintenance key, and an average-locked safe with more random loot.
 * After freeing Deputy Beagle, you can trade equipment with him to get his leather armor and 9mm pistol

This floor can be accessed via the roller coaster outside, a stairwell from the first floor or by repairing the elevator on the first floor.
 * Second Floor
 * Numerous Psycho and Med-X in a room past a Locked door at the end of the corridor, on a desk with a suitcase, and in the bathroom.
 * "Very Easy" maintenance door contains a Doctor's Bag, 2 First Aid Boxes and a tool box.
 * Gun cabinet in a room on the South side of the floor contains two random weapons (might be plasma pistol, .357 magnum revolver, Silenced .22 pistol, Laser RCW) and some ammo.

This floor can only be reached via one of the second floor rooms featuring a collapsed ceiling, which forms a ramp that can be scaled with jumps.
 * Third Floor
 * Gun Locker - A locked gun cabinet at the top of one of the two ramps leading up to the floor. It contains random weapons and ammunition types. If unable to pick the lock, a Worn Key can found on one of the convicts' bodies.
 * Psycho x2 in a bathtub in the room to the left of the above gun cabinet, near the suicide scene (wrist cutter).
 * Armor Case containing random armor (sometimes a plasma rifle and ammo) in Bathroom in room with makeshift ramp.

Appearances
appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes

 * Its name, style, and the roller coaster built in front of the hotel seem to be a reference to the hotel Buffalo Bill's (and its famous roller coaster Desperado), in Primm, Nevada, 40 miles outside of Las Vegas.

Bugs

 * After visiting the second floor for the first time, all convict bodies will disappear including on the third floor since it is the same cell. Loot whatever you want before leaving.
 * If you completely clear the first floor of the building and then leave without going to the upper floors at all, and finish My Kind of Town so that either Meyers or Primm Slim becomes sheriff, you may on returning find all convicts on the second and third floors dead, their bodies scattered over the rooms and corridors. They can then be picked clean with no interference. You may also be met by a NCR trooper walking down one of the corridors and out of the hotel; the trooper is not named and will only give a stock response to inquiries (for instance, that he'd hoped there would be more gambling). This hints that the NCR moved into Bison Steve's after the player cleared the first floor and killed the convicts on the second and third floors. (The convicts on the roller coaster track outside remain alive.)
