We have only heard unfavorable things about the accommodations here and the place looks real close to closing. They are, however, quite cheap, even on the weekends. Bourbon Street - They used to have a casino, but they've pared down to a few tight slot machines. The hotel is not directly on the Strip, but is only a five minute walk down Flamingo to the Flamingo Hilton, Caesars Palace, and the Barbary Coast. You can pretend to be staying at one of these joints while you chat up prostitutes in the bars.
Rooms are average.
In the summer when it doesn't fill up, these rooms rent for a decent rate. The hotel is a block off the strip, east of Bally's. The casino is small and strange, but the pool and rooms are good so long as you avoid the often odorous smoking rooms. Klondike - Saying the Klondike is on the Strip is about as accurate as when Matt says he kissed Elle MacPherson. Yes, he kissed a picture of her in a magazine, and yes, the Klondike is on Las Vegas Boulevard, but it is way south of where the real casinos begin.
