Believe it or not Harrahs is a very nice place to stay as far as how they treat you, and its pretty inexpensive for the strip.although not anything special it is clean and friendly. Its pretty nice, and the people were exceptionally guest oriented. I just stayed at Monte Carlo a couple weeks ago on business. Last time I stayed at TI was three years ago.and it was decent.
Have you seen the rooms at Treasure Island?
Last time I went to Vegas was about 2 years ago.
