You can find rooms at Hooters for $25 and be right by MGM and Mandalay. Personally I would go to the Harrahs area where you also have Ballys and Imperial Palace. Very close to Bellagio, Caesars and Mirage. Rooms in that area will range from $25-$75. Check vegas.com for best rates.

Because you are asking for the impossible. You asked for best overall book for a short hit n run trip??? looking for atmosphere, ease of payouts, good nfl lines. what would you say the absolute best sportsbook is? A book with a good atmosphere isnt going to have Good NFL Lines Easy payouts are no problem, The Lines to get to the pay window are. The absolute best sportsbook for lines? or for atmosphere? You cant have your cake and eat it too

Yea if u get off the strip into northtown or certain parts of the eastside it can get pretty bad, but most tourists stay on the strip where metro makes sure the the tourists are protected.....ive lived here for 10 years and i love it, most locals i know bet at AZ charlies boulder or boulder station (but granted i do live on the eastside, so those 2 would be the obvious choice if u live on the eastside)... GL when u come, IMO besides san diego, vegas is the best place to live or visit in the world

At least you dont have to worry about snow or rain (unless you like that). Theres always garbage to do, plus you always have the chance of hitting big at the casino. Congrats and good luck to you and your fiance

Don't miss their theater either, And when you go into the theater they give you a ticket for free giveaways. Last year a guy sitting not far away from me won a year's lease on a car. I thought the guy was gonna cry.

I know of no other Vegas strip book that is this close to two other competing books. Now downtown has short walking distance between books for the super price shopper.
