| - stayed in the carson tower april 13 till the 17th. i think it is the older section, but the room was big and clean. all i needed. usually stay and gamble on the strip, but downtown has a much better blackjack game, and they comped us two nights for gambling which is almost unheard of anymore for me on the main drag. the pool here was great. not too cold, and it has a shark tank with a slide going through it which i liked. rented a cabana on saturday, and the hostess went out of her way to make sure we were happy with the server, food etc. she came by at least 6 times on her way through to check up, and i swear it wasn't because we were out of control...
food was great in the sports book area, the sushi place was good enough, but ate mostly away from casino so can't tell you much about the rest of the restaurants. my buddy took a good chunk of money from them on friday, and when i walked up, the pit boss was cheering him on instead of giving the evil eye ( which is what usually happens).
the cab from the airport was about $36.00 before tip, so not a good place to stay if you plan on sightseeing along the boulevard every day instead of staying on freemont.
overall, i will be sure to stay here next time i want to spend my whole trip downtown.
