  1. For things to do Hoover Dam is a easy trip and interesting. Drive out to Red Rock Canyon, about 10 miles out on Charleston, beautiful. Zion National Park is about a 4 hour drive but you would want to stay over at least 1 night. Laughlin is 90 minutes and like old Las Vegas, during the week you can get a decent room for around $15 and suites go for about $50 but Sunday thru Thursday only. Weekends at least double that. Grand Canyon is about a 6-7 hour drive. Lots of great dining in Vegas but not cheap anymore. Also Primm is not a far drive and has a big outlet mall area.

  2. As far as the quality of rooms The Golden Nugget used to be the best place in Vegas to stay. In my opinion only Wynn, Belagio, Mandalay Bay and the Venetian are better. GN is on par with MGM, RIO and the Mirage. The Horseshoe is on par with a Medium Holiday Inn. I think you can get a Poker room rate for the Mirage of around $80. You need to play 6 hours a day for that. Call Mirage ask for Poker room and ask what the rate for Poker players is. Driving is not too bad if you stay off the Strip and use the roads that parallel the strip as you can get to most of the parking garages from the back. Try to stay off Flamingo and center strip as it can be bad. Poker is good at the Horseshoe and OK at GN. Lots of loose players at Horseshoe esp. 4-8. I made $75 per hour at Horseshoe over two days 6 hours each day. Was pretty loose at Wynn 4-8 too. I have mostly been able to get a compact car for around $25 per day on priceline or direct with Dollar but I normally get a week rate.

  3. Hotwire lists the following:

    4.5* with restaurants, golf, tennis, pool, fitness center, airport shuttle & business center for $88.

    4* with restaurant, pool, fitness center & business center for $78.

    3.5* customer favorite with pool, spa, fitness center, business center & restaurant for $55.

    All are downtown and for November 7-9. Any ideas what they may be? I think the 3.5* may be the Sheraton Center but don't know about the others.
