^ Other than there being no in-house casino and that it's quite quite a distance from the strip, the hotel itself is very nice!

I would never stay in a hotel in Vegas without a Casino...that just me cause I like to gamble coming back from the clubs.
If you don't gamble at all it should be fine for you.

Didn't work D:
I figured that much when I was lining up though since there were quite a bit of people. Spring break, after all 
Still happy that we got a relatively good view on the 33rd floor though Posted via RS Mobile | |

Sucks to hear that, what happened exactly? Did he say "Oh there's $20 stuck in here" and give it back? I would like to hear details because I've never done it before and I want to try it next time but I'm kind of shy | |

Before I was even able to fully give her my ID and credit card with my sandwiched 20, she said that it's busy season and that they were all out. After hearing that I stopped and discretely took my 20 out and gave her my ID first, LOL...I suppose it saved me from embarrassment. Posted via RS Mobile | |

headed to Vegas this Thursday. staying at the Cosmo. going to tao thursday, xs friday, and saturday marquee.
unfortunately tiesto @ Xs on saturday was far too out of budget for our group to do. but we do have near dance floor tables for all nights so that's good enough for me.

Flying to Vegas in a few hours with the gf. Got unpublished rate on expedia for 3 nights, $280(tax included) at Trump. Definitely gonna try the sandwich trick lol.
Any suggestions on what's good right now? Haven't been to Vegas since I was 6 O.O
where are some good places to eat, gamble, shop, and drink?

Right on man, didn't hit up any strip clubs? Tao was pretty nuts, but i went when Trey Songz was there.
Dude, the line up for Earl of sandwich was crazy. I was playing the wheel of fortune game across from it.
Glad you had fun.
PS: Planet hollywood is hella dirty, GF saw a cockroach in the washroom!
