This hotel is dated and out of the main stream, but might be a frugal alternative for those attending a convention in the Las Vegas Convention Center. It is located within walking distance of the Las Vegas Hotel’s monorail stop, but most people seem to arrive by car or taxi. There is a large parking lot for the convention center immediately across the street and an abandoned apartment complex a little to the west. If you must walk, I would suggest staying on the same side of the road as Piero’s and the Marriott. There is a sign advising of a $5 valet parking charge, but we found no valet and parked in the hotel’s parking lot for free
A small, coffee shop type restaurant is operated, but I never saw more than a hand full people dining there on our visits.

The casino is very small with no table games. Per the VPFree2 data base, the only playable VP is 9/6 JOB at the 5 cents level.

There are two showrooms, Star Theater and Wolf Theater. These are rented on a 4-wall basis by performers. Since the casino is off the beaten path, few acts have attracted enough patrons to succeed. The only show with any sort of staying power has been Shades of Sinatra. We have seen a couple of shows in each of the two venues and prefer the larger Wolf Theater. The intimate Star Theater has comfortable movie theater type seating, but the sound system and acoustics are poor. The larger Wolf Theater is Spartan and set up with tables and movable chairs, but has a larger stage and better sound system.

We always use the American Casino Guide coupon for 2 free drinks before each show.
