This is the most fun place on Earth. You can pretty much do whatever you want here and no one looks at you (too) strangely. I like to play blackjack for long sessions, Crown and Coke is my beverage of choice and basically just doing whatever my heart desires for three days in a row.

I like gambling in Bill's first and foremost. Limits are a little high at times for what it is but I was a big fan of $1 bottles of Miller Chill back in October and I do want to stay here in the future because the location cannot be beat.
Haven't had the (dis)pleasure of staying here. I have met some of the most awesome people while gambling here and if you can beat $1 bottles of Michelob in Las Vegas, tell me where. The place is dumpy but I love the fact that this is next to the swanky Venetian, showing that you can't always pick your neighbors.
My first trip ever was spent here for three nights. The rooms are really nice but I didn't understand all the fuss. The buffet is delicious in my opinion but it's $20 just for lunch, so it's not a very cheap option. In general, I think the gaming here sucks. The House of Blues is a good place to see a concert and the Shark Reef is cool and (relative to Vegas) cheap for some fun. The rooms and options trumped the bad gaming for me.
I like the blackjack here and that this place has to try harder because of its location. I've never felt like a king here, but the pit bosses and dealers make me feel like they're happy to have my business.The dinner buffet was average at best but it was $6.99 with a Sahara player's club card and there was roast beef and fried shrimp and drinks included, which felt like a pretty good deal. I would stay here one day. The only detractor is the location but the monorail is connected to it. Also, Speed: The Ride is worth it. Short ride but very fast and thrilling, especially when buzzed from downing Jack and Coke at the tables beforehand.
This is the second place I ever stayed. It was so dead on the day after Thanksgiving that they upgraded me from a Garden Room (the bottom one) to the Paradise Tower (the best). Having said that, the room was nice but designed in the 70's and then never upgraded.The second time I stayed here, it was in the Island Tower. The room itself was ok but walking through a long tunnel being bombarded by people selling junk out of kiosks was annoying as shit.The gaming here is slightly above average to me, just people trying to have fun. Plenty of $5 blackjack tables, I noticed and the Comedy Shop was a good deal and very funny. Three good comedians and one drink for $20, a true steal in Vegas.The place is so tacky that it actually becomes cool. You can tell this place was pretty awesome in its day. Unfortunately, that day was in 1970.
Haven't ever been here, but am booked for a cabana junior suite from July 28-31. The place just looks awesome and I seem to hear mostly good things about it. After my stay, I will update this.Any place with single-deck blackjack with 3:2 payout automatically gets major thumbs up in my book.
Haven't gambled a whole lot here but the Go Rooms are phenomenal in my opinion, the pool is not Mandalay Bay's but definitely in a strong second place and there really are Flamingos here. I played blackjack here once, maybe I lost $20. Not very memorable on that front.
I stayed here for one night in a classic room. It was functional for sleeping and using the restroom. It wasn't dirty, just kind of bare. Personally, I like the gaming here. The Dealertainers make for a good time and it's some of the cheapest games you'll find this end of the strip.
Nice, clean rooms. Nothing flashy at all. I personally had some great blackjack runs here but the dealers range from morose to a lot of fun. Drink service is about average but they don't seem to be actively trying to get you drunk here. The pool area is nice enough but I was there during CityCenter construction and that kinda sucked. Overall, a good property but to me it's just kind of bland. I personally liked themed casinos.
Never stayed here. The gaming is average in my opinion, but I love fast and sit-down dining here. The pizza place in the little village part is really good for a late-night or just quick snack. ESPN Zone is overpriced as far as food goes but I found it very fun. Also, the dueling pianos are pretty cool. If you go during the week, there is no cover.
Just a great, very rowdy place to gamble. Fun atmosphere and who doesn't love having a Burger King very near by for cheap and hopelessly greasy eats at 2 a.m.?
I honestly don't know why I like this place. The 6:5 blackjack rules suck but I have won here and had a good time doing so. I like the way the ceilings are painted here and in the Venetian mall. The ride up the fake Eiffel tower was expensive but the view is nothing short of awesome. Also had a great dinner at Mon Ami Gabi. Seemed reasonably priced (for Vegas) and we sat outside with a fantastic view of the strip and Bellagio fountains.
This is the one casino I have yet to stay at but want to. It really is next on my list, just want to find a good deal on a room. Sometimes places just give off a good vibe and that is how it is for me here.
