What is the sentiment of the following review?
Just now heard the news that the historic Sahara Hotel & Casino is closing today. I was there only 9 days ago and would have bought a souvenir if I had known the end was so near. It was obvious, though, that it could not have lasted much longer. Barely 50 people in the casino on a Saturday night and the porter had to call for taxi pick up in the porte cochere. I am sorry that so many people in an especially hard-hit local economy are now out of work. I'm sure the place was glorious in its heyday and maybe the property will be again some day. It seems like the perfect spot for a sparkling new mega resort - lots of vacant land around and located on the last stop on the monorail. That end of the strip sure needs a boost. Goodbye $1 blackjack! Thanks for the memories, Sahara.
