Nicely done, Binionrat. Slots O Fun is the only place I ever played 21 and it was a fun night.

By the way, your new NLV name is B-Rat. The reference is from the movie "Eight Mile", except that was B-Rabbit.

If you are staying for a romantic getaway then this is not the place.

If you are staying in Vegas without kids this is not the place, period.

Even though my husband's comments was "No way, we're not staying there" I would like to get anyone's comments about their rooms. I have read that the Tower rooms have been remodelled and in the picture they look quite nice. Free is free, right??

Comments?

Nice! Doesn't El Cortez have a resort fee? I was looking at them for my next trip and it seems like they did, which is why I didn't book there.

The West Tower rooms are supposedly the nicest and most recently renovated IIRC. Upon arrival, you could ask for an upgrade and see if they will charge you a modest amount.

But honestly, in Vegas you often get what you (don't) pay for. Bill's Gambling Hall and Casino Royale are inexpensive options right in the heart of the Strip. Or consider any downtown casino other than Golden Nugget (the fanciest and pricest option there).

Edit: I read a post suggesting the IP. With the ongoing construction of the Linq entertainment complex going on - as well as the re-branding of IP itself - one would have to be a rather deep sleeper not to be bothered by the noise.

They re-did those rooms in one of the most creative ways I've heard of. They held a contest and invited local interior design artists to compete.

Another downtown property purchased all of the nice furnishings from the failed project on the north end of the strip and did a major renovation.

No resort fee. They surcharge for in-room coffee and wi-fi (if desired).
