| - The danger of staying at a hotel with different women over the years can be awkward. The wife inevitably catches on when you bring up past reminiscences, and it wasn't one she was part of. So, it's best to switch hotels as you cycle through women. That's my tip for the day.
My first stay here was back during the Wizard of Oz days, when the big cartoon Lion head was the facade of the hotel. It registered a 12 on the gaudiness scale, but I miss it!! That era was short lived. Came here a few other times, and saw the greatest stand-up comedian of all time, George Carlin a year or so before he went on to the Comedy Club in the Sky. And you'll say it's crazy talk, but they used to have a theme park out back!! Only about four rides. Can't remember which woman I was with when I went the one time. Know it wasn't the wife so I don't bring it up. I'm gaining wisdom in my old age!!
It's a great hotel for many reasons, but for me it doesn't quite have a defined personality. But, it has great restaurants, shows, etc, etc.... It's always worth a visit when in town for a few days, or you could of course just stay here. Just keep track of who you're with!!
