Monte Carlo is a mid priced hotel. Not the worst and not the best. I've never stayed at any of the up scale places like the Bellagio or Venetian or Mandalay Bay, but I can't say that I care too much. I usually don't spend a whole lot of time in my room anyway. For the money, if you like space, stay at the Rio. They have spaciouis mini-suites. Drawback to that though is that it's across the freeway from the strip.


Best I've been in is Wynn.... rooms and especially the beds are extremely good (I travel alot and almost never sleep well the 1st night away from home... except for Wynn). I normally stay there or on the south end of the strip (normally NY-NY). Rooms there are good and the location's great.

Their standard 'run of the house' rooms are ok (been in tons better), but if you've got an MGM-Mirage players club card, you should never end up in those.

Today in the mail I got an offer from The Hilton for 3 free nights. There are certian days in Feb, March and April that you can use them but that is the only catch,,,cause I called and asked them what I had to buy, watch or try!!! and it was on the up and up. It also provides a $50 dining card, a "Play $50, get $150 back coupon. I am seriously thinking of going. Anyone ever stayed at the Hilton in Vegas? Is it a crap hole or what? :D

onebadbeast 01-26-2008 12:43 AM

I go up to Las Vegas at least twice a year and have stayed at most of the hotels. The Hilton is located on the back side of the strip with a monorail station to give you access to the rest of the strip.

The hotel is dated a bit, but I wouldn't call it sh*t hole. Some of the older hotels still have a smokey smell in them and the last time I was in the Hilton it did too.

They have a large sports book, which was the best in town.

Take the comp and fly up, see a show. You only spend you sleeping hours in the room.

Mortimer 01-26-2008 08:27 AM

NO!



Oh come on now...are you telling me all of the breaking news stories on tv and radio are ,in fact , TRUE?

I really don't know what to say,Grooves.




I'm floored...really.

Thanks, I am really thinking about it. I have never been and heck, if they are free. Thanks for the info.

I don't know how this happened, but I've only been to Vegas once and played at the Wynn a lot and have already been getting things in the mail from them for comp. rooms, to bad I can't afford to go out there right now. My dad has been going to Vegas for years, and he plays at the Wynn a lot and doesn't get anything from them, he has no idea how I am.

I go up with my wife , Daughter and Son in Law. The girls go shopping and the boys go to the sports book with a trip or two to the gaming tables.

We always take in a show or two.

Do your home work on the shows to find out when they are dark. You can get tickets at discount prices by waiting till 30 minutes before the show. There are alot of good comedy show that are pretty cheap.

We fly and take the taxi everywhere, being from SoCal I find it funny that most of the taxi drivers look like terrorist

2hot4tv was a horse I owned back in the 80's. He was bred by Arron Spelling and I claimed him. Are you really a M.R. or just drink too much? I bet your a smoker that has nightmares about the side effects from years of abuse.

Have you ever been out of the hospital for a unsupervised weekend?

I will let you know the next time I in Las Vegas so you can meet me. I pay for dinner and drinks, just promise you wont drive.

P.S. Dinner will be at Boa's in Ceasars Palace. I promise.

Morty, Las Vegas is a weekend get away, but for a troll it would be a Vacation. Now that's funny. Really what does your broke A S S do for a weekend get away. Now if you say you're golfing at the county club you must tell us which one and how long you have been a member.

I doubt you're hot enough for the ratty-o.



It's hard to believe a degenerate gambler such as you would be encumbered with a wife and daughter.More likely you live in a Yucca Valley hut and thumb your way to Las Vegas with that roll of quarters you mugged a candy machine attendant for.


But I won't get personal here.


Gelf is for idiots and I am DEM SHOO you gelf.

The truth is ,as much as I ruffled your filthy feathers , you can't stand me. You can't stand me because I'm smarter than you and am adored by every single beautiful woman here and it just makes you giddy with jealous anger.

So you go blowharding with your idiot inference about claiming to have an in at every country club in the US.




And I'll keep making you look like Chevy Chase at every opportuinty.


Now get out of my sight....yer mekin' me sick.

You noticed that,too...huh?


Did you see where he claims to have actually been a horsey owner? Only him and 50 million others. ...but his was bred by Spelling.....don't ya know.

Don't ask him anymore questions....I'll vomit on the answers.



And I wouldn't take him up on that Vegas meet up offer.

Sounds like he's done that before....know what I'm sayin' ?

Vegas PD have ruled out Brian W Spencers handicapping as reason for the blaze.

What is your primary malfunction here...sir?


Did you or did you not promise to refrain from anymore Vegas vacay postings?

I judged you to be above the bogus attempts to inflate ones own ego by posting phony claims or posting a breeze by through a famous vacay spot that so many others here try to do.






Shame on you.


Don't bother responding.

Shirley you would agree then.......your judge of character must be slipping

Mortimer 01-28-2008 01:56 PM

Double Shirley....maybe ...and maybe not.
