My buddies and I are planning on heading to Vegas for a few days in March for the NCAA Tournament.  We're looking at hotel rates right now.  There are some cheap places downtown, but I'd prefer to not take a 10-15 cab ride (or whatever it takes) every time I want to go to the Strip.  All of the best casinos/hotels are quite expensive, and I'd prefer to save my money for gambling.  Any suggestions at some good not too expensive hotels?  Any advice is appreciated.  Thanks guys

Last time I went to Vegas, me and my friends stayed at Ceasar's Palace.  It has a great sportsbook, and has just about everything in the hotel

went to Planet Hollywood recently....paid $80 per nite (min 2 nites...we stayed 3 but its new and clean)

went to LA for business but drove out to vegas for weekend with some buddies

rooms are for showers and changing....no one sleeps in vegas and you save your cash for the important things...lap dances and the Sports book

gl on your trip

Don't stay downtown if you want to frequent the strip often. Just too much hassle and the cab fares will cancel the hotel savings. Find the cheapest strip property you can. No matter what it is. It will be decent to sleep in and you will be right there for the sportsbooks. I'd say the Imperial Palace and Excalibur might be the cheapest on the strip. Or even Casino Royale. Now you won't get fancy for cheap on the strip but you will get a bed in the middle of the action.

What are you planning on gambling on and how much would you say your average bet is?

Do the Strat!! My buddies and I head out to Vegas twice a year, and have found that the hotel room is secondary.  The Stratosphere, yes its at the very end of the dull part of the strip, is clean, cheap, and 5 minute cab to the Wynn (My favorite Sportsbook!)  Also you could walk it which isn't bad, in fact its a good way to work off the buffets, and booze!!! 
 
Ive spent 49 bucks a night there, consistently... go to Travelzoo.com, or TripRes.com to find those rates!!
 
I have even stayed with my girlfriend there and she didn;t complain, and trust me she complains every time we book a hotel in NYC!!!
 
Save your money and invest at the Sports Books!! Good Luck!

Remember, the idea is to NOT stay in the hotel room, so it really is just a place for sleep...................
