also what are the places to eat in vegas now? havn't been since 08.
I asked srk but people there are claiming 20 dollars for dinner is expensive, and buffets.
ended up booking at the rio. I should have booked at bellagio or ceasers and just walekd over for the tourney. This is a vacation for me too. only problem is im going with a bunch of nerds (aka no money) so I wanna watch some shows and junk, but dont wanna go solo lol.

Not the best place but it's free and in a good location. Can't complain when it's free (unless its at Imperial)
Gonna be there August 3rd & 4th and heading back to Hollywood on the 5th. Let me know if anybody is around at that time and we'll go grab some drinks.

NYNY & Monte Carlo are pretty much right next to each other. Almost the same price range. less than $50 price difference

Almost the same price range. less than $50 price difference | They look close on the map but it's still quite a walk from 1 hotel to the other. If the price difference isn't that high then I'd go with the Monte Carlo. They renovated not too long ago as well.

Mirage was recently renovated. Fairly central and the rooms are modern.

Don't get the capri suites, those are worse of a shithole than the standard suites.

last time we paid like 450 per person for 3 days, so paying 360 for 5 days is fuckin awsome for a penthouse

MGM Signature suites are good but you can often find a lot of people renting them out from vrbo.com
Nice place but be prepared to walk a long ways just to get to the strip haha

not too sure if its cheaper to book a hotel/flight pkg or book them separate. so far its cheaper if its bundled together.

i think they took 30% off the hotel and put it on the flight .. i was seeing 49.99 and 59.99 flights before n july and august before they launched their 30% off hotels promo
