Its 1 dollar=1point for both VP and slots - which is amazing. I'm not aware of any other place that awards VP at the same rate as slots.
At least according to the Slot Club information within the https://www.vpfree2.com/casino/el-cortez-hotel-casino/club website for El Cortez Casino, that is not true. With the Non-TITO 99%+ machines it's $3 of coin-in per point.
That presents a discrepancy with El Cortez's players club site. I'd be interested to have someone verify which is correct.
El Cortez Players club site:
How do I earn Points?
Every $1 you play on any slots earns you 1 point. Every $1 you play on most of our video poker machines earns you 1 point.
Notice that in the second sentence of the answer to the "How do I earn Points?" question it says that, "Every $1 you play on most of our video poker machines earns you 1 point." Notice that word "most" in there. That means some of the machines take more coin in to earn the player a point.
And so that fits right in with what the link that I provided from the VPFree2 website which says that the machines that are Non-TITO (these are the old coin droppers) that have a return on them of 99% or higher need $3 of coin in played through them for the player to earn a point.
And so for some of the VP it takes $1 of coin in to earn one point and for some of the VP machines it takes $3 of coin in for the player to earn one point.

You're very welcome! I'm happy that I could clarify things. Again, El Cortez is saying that the old coin-out machines take $3 of coin in to earn a point. And so for those machines the return (at least in cashback) is 1/3 of .20%, so about .067%.
