I stayed at the Nugget for the Super Bowl time frame, nothing wrong with that place at all. It's off the strip but when you are bringing the party with you it doesn't matter where you are.
Don't get me wrong, it is a very nice hotel IMO. It's just downtown so some people may get the wrong idea. Neat light shows and all right outside.....
I'm guessing... Being older than most here (close to 50) I prefer downtown anyways for gambling, although I really liked the old strip -- when Caesars was the "jewel."
I usually stay at the LV Club but will join the gang this time at GN.
