Stay at the Stratosphere...since you have a rental car its slightly isolated geography is not an issue. Its cheap, no kids, nice casino by strip standards, and lots of attractions. One of the best value places in Vegas.
Im loving these tips and I hope they help others on here too. We are hoping to go back in late August or September. Any other tips are greatly appreciated as we will not be booking for a bit.
One other unrelated question- If I buy a new LVA book how often can I use the free play coupons or match coupons in the book? -Once a year on the date I used them? (meaning 256 days till I can use another one) -Once for the year I used them 2014? (meaning Jan 1 2015 I can use a new one) Thank you
