This is a LOCALS hotel and casino. The Tourist rarely venture this far east downtown and for good reason. I myself have always stayed west of El Cortez using that as my boundary marker.
My friend who is a local suggested we go here and get some cheap drinks. I am a tough cookie so it was fine us coming here and being able to handle the "darker" side of Vegas. They have cleaned this property up a lot we were informed by several different locals that night during our visit. Was interesting hearing of the past history of drugs, scandal and "alleged" murders that have taken place on and around this casino. As one guy shared with us that years ago he never would have stepped foot in there without his "Nine" and a bullet proof vest. WOW
The only reason we came here was for $1 shots, and generous $1 beers. Otherwise this is really not my type of crowd or atmosphere. I was solicited a few times which really just reminded me to ask myself WTF am I doing here?

My suggestion is come here as a group rather than solo if you must as locals. I would not inform out of towners or tourist to come here as this is not the most positive or common "Vegas" experience. We should really keep this place a secret and for good reason.
My final word:
This was an "interesting" experience and keep a firm grip on your purse!
Also be sure to look north, south, east and west at the same time while walking from and to your car in the parking lot.
