Just looked at the Flamingo and it looks quite nice actually!

Flamino gets my vote for location and price in a GO room tho not a deluxe.

2nd choice for price (first) and then location would be Imperial Palace but the pool isnt great

Wow, been a while since i was in this thread.

As we've started planning our next trip - even though its very far off, thought id come back and have a look, see whats been happening!

Need some advice from those who have stayed at both Flamingo & Ballys. I've booked for Ballys, and have stayed a few times before. OH and me really like the slower pace and the bigger rooms. I'm tempted by a Go Room at Flamingo though. If you've stayed in both, can you give me some pro's and con's........
I also like that I can pretty much always find $5 (table poker) tables at Ballys, but not sure what limits are like at Flamingo. Any advice between the 2 appreciated.....

How about Nine Fine Irishmen? We went there for a wedding last year, and it was very good. They had the reception there too. That may make a difference.

Do you guys have any recommendations for the best tours of the Hoover Dam?
And the best Helicopter strip flights?

Also, would you guys mind helping us out before tonight/tomorrow?
We did Scoot City Tours last year (I wrote about it in my Trip Report, which is in the OP), and theyre running a Facebook competition where a free tour can be won for the person with the most 'likes' of their 2010 tour picture.
You have to like Scoot City, and then like our picture:

Would appreciate it a lot! We had a lead, but the American who is also doing well, managed to pull ahead overnight!

If anyone helps, i'll buy them a beer if we ever meet! (Or give away some likely unused Restaurant.com certificates after our next trip!)

Cheers Guys

Thanks to everyone who helped - eventually decided to book Bally's for 3 nights (Thurs-Fri-Sat) for $230 plus tax. Then moving onto the Venetian (not yet booked) before going to the Gold Coast for 5 nights, that cost $300 including tax for a Wed-Thurs-Fri-Sat-Sun booking!

Can't remember seeing this over the last few pages. BB Kings files for bankruptcy protection/chapter 11...... Hope it can recover....

Someone also posted on TA that Happy Hour has been cancelled, and may be back in the summer.....

Please could somebody remind me of the name of the other popular coupon book apart from LVA MRB?

Have not bought MRB before but may do as going twice this year and will probably use a few of the buffet coupons. Have they always offered Paris and PH? I have looked before previous trips but seemed to think they were usually more for off strip casinos. I can't see M Resort buffet 2 for 1 coupon, I thought i'd seen this on a list, maybe its in the other booklet that I can't remember!




Thank you x
