| - It's an affordable place to stay in Vegas. Within walking distance of the main part of the strip. My boy stays here a lot for business trips, though I must admit it's not as flashy as the other casinos. The crowd is older, more relaxed. It got to the point where I looked suspicious because I was a twenty-something lady. Not sure if it was just a weird weekend or what...but the only other twenty-something female sitting at the bar sortakindamaybe looked like she was soliciting some illegal activities if-you-know-what-I-mean...or was coked up on something...or, you know what, she just looked kind of skanky in general...but hey, what do I know? Not much about Vegas, I'll tell you that. I've only been there two or three times.
Highlights:
I played video poker for the first time.
There were incredibly cheap drinks at the bar.
The rooms are REALLY spacious.
There's a pool. It's serviceable. Granted it's not like the one in Mandalay Bay (the one with the manufactured waves, right? you know what I'm talking about...), but it's good to have a cool body of water to dunk yourself into when you're under that sizzling vegas sun.
It's across the way from Lawry's, if you like Prime Rib.
It's AFFORDABLE. So, if you don't want to pay Vegas prices, but want to go to Vegas, you can just stay here and then walk to the glitzier casinos...
