| - We are "El Cortez" fans., my wife and I. That being said, we have experiences at other Vegas hotel casino's because you simply can't stay in the El Cortez. For example: The Palms, The Westin, the Golden Nugget, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Mirage. There are two broad categories of places: Places to stay and Places to gamble. The two are somewhat exclusive: A nice place to stay means the gambling is a rip, and a nice place to gamble is probably hobo infested and disgusting. That being said, Fremont Hotel and Casino is what I would call "a place to gamble."
They have a heavy emphasis on penny slots- so take from that what you will. The table game limits were low and the tables were filled with interesting people. Not a man with two hooks for hands playing roulette (El Cortez, this weekend) but tourists from interesting, out of the way places.
