Cant beat the location or the price I imagine. My buddies and I usually pop in there for an hour or so while we are walking the Strip. Casino has very low limits and sometimes you can get a rowdy croud to fire up a craps table. Low limits are rare if not extinct on that part of the Strip. Imagine you wont spend much time in the room or sleeping, so it should be a great place.

I might not eat the buffet there, but from there you are 5-10 minute walk to Aladdin/Paris/Bellagio three of the better buffets in town.

On the course!
Pricewise, for what you get, I don't think it is such a good deal. You can find far better hotels at similar rates. I would do a little searching of the hotels web sites out there.

While I absolutely agree you can get better deals in town, you wont get them in that part of the Strip, on the Strip.

I know yyz, but I've been staying@ different places each time I go to LV. sometimes it turns out to be a nice surprise as AZ Charlies was a good time. :shade:
P.S.- went to 'The Cannery' on opening day. Haven't heard anymore about that place- Have you?

Wait so its $200ish/night for the hotel room??? (33/nt*6guys?)

OK now that I know the rate you are paying I take that back you should definitely be able to beat that at MGM or Alladdin or Paris or somewhere else. That seems high for that hotel.

That's what I am trying to tell you. This place is a dump, and they charge "higher" than nice places!

Check other sites.

(What dates are you looking at?)

By the way, they will double fukc you once they find out that you are shacking up like Hmongs. Besides.....why the hell would you want to have 6 guys in one room? :shrug:

I just recently stayed there on Aug 11-14th. I got a tower room for $50 a night and the room was very clean. I also had a requested a room with a view and i had view of Bellagio (with the water show), Paris, and Alladin.

They also have 2 $3 blackjack tables and the rest of the tables are $5 min.

Boardwalk Comp program is great. I earned over $40 in comps and i did not even play all my blackjack at the hotel. Very easy to earn comps there. They have a deli which is cheap and food is ok. The restaurant they have is very good and you can use your comp dollars there or the buffet. I did not eat at the dinner buffet but went 3 times to the boardwalk breakfest/lunch buffet. Its open till 3pm (which is great if you sleep in) and have both breakfest and lunch. In addition, they have an omlette station and a waffle station. That runs about $9 and was very good.

At night (you might not be interested) but they have 2 free shows in the casino and they were very good as well. Prince imitation and motown band.

Boardwalk is close to MGM (which has great buffet) and Alladin (also great dinner buffet).

Here is what i did, i went to MGM front desk, asked/flirted with one of the girls there and recieved a couple of fun books (suppose to only be for hotel guests). Inside there is 1/2 off buffet for up 6 people, and free studio 54 pass to the club.

Hope you have a great time!
BTW, i have stayed at MGM and Venitian, and if you factor in price, i would stay at the Boardwalk. I was very happy there. Its also a small casino so its easy to find your friends too and the cocktail waitresses are very fast in coming around with drinks. HUGE PLUS!

FIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. At $50 a night this place is a bargain for all the reasons I mentioned, but at $200 its a ripoff IMHO.
