I went at the beginning of January and I stayed @ the Stratosphere. Won't be doin' that again. What are some other good ones that aren't too expensive? Mirage any good? Paris? NY NY?
Sign up at a few different casino's players clubs. You'll get emails for didn't specials. The last ones I remember seeing were $60 per night for The Venetian and Mandalay Bay. I've stayed in both places and they're great.
Mirage is good. Treasure island too. Not a fan of paris...small rooms. Ballys and flamingo are good because of location and are good for the money X
I liked the MGM and would recommend it. However next time I'm in Vegas I will probably stay further up the blvd, perhaps at City Center. Heard good things about Vdara.
If you can afford, go to Venetian. You can fit 6 persons in a room and its way better. big thing is the pool when its warm.
Gold Spike is supposedly really good if you are looking for the cheapest possible hotel without it being a complete dive.
