    We got a really good deal at the Signature at MGM. It's the 3 towers behind MGM, but they're connected to MGM and you get to use the pools at MGM. We went to VRBO.com (vacation rentals by owner). Our suite was nice. I would do it again.

    There is a tram that goes to like 7 different hotels on the strip and goes through the MGM. I think it was like $28 per person for unlimited rides for 5 days. We rode that tram everywhere. Well worth the money.

    I recommend staying on the strip too - you can find great deals! I've gone twice, the first time we had a timeshare from the family, it was just past South Point casino/hotel.. to get to the main part of the strip, we paid so much in cabs it wasn't worthwhile. I recently went again in November for a friend's wedding - 4 nights at the Mandalay Bay for $450 (and that divided between 2 people, cheeap).
    If you're going to see the sites, there is A LOT of walking involved, I just think it's easier to stay on the main part of the strip :)

    As a AAA member, I was able to book at the Trump Hotel, 5 stars, for as low as $119 a night. Also, rooms and flights in Vegas are very inexpensive at certain times of the year.

    I vote for on the Strip! So much easier since you just walk every where, especially if you have been drinking. Try Hotwire- and you can find cheat websites that you can match up the amenities and narrow down which hotels you are bidding on so you don't stay in a crap hole! Most of them are pretty nice, stay away from Hooters or Stratosphere, not very nice. I like Tropicana, Luxor or Monte Carlo for cheaper Strip options. HAVE FUN!

    Palace Station is off strip and while not the fanciest hotel in town it is clean and very cheap. This week you could get a room for $22 a night. Another option is Las Vegas Hilton. Nicer than Palace Station but about double the rate. Still reasonable. Excaliber is on the strip and about the same price as Hilton. Of course, it will depend on the time of year and what's going on. If it's NASCAR race week, National Rodeo week or there's a big convention in town, nothing will be cheap.

    I went around 5 or 6 years ago now, but we stayed at Terribles Hotel/Casino. It was at the end of the strip (not the Old Vegas end, the other end) it was kind of across the street from the Hard Rock. We just got bus passes and took the bus to the strip everyday we were there. I was in walking distance also, it was just too damn hot so we didn't feel like walking and being drenched in sweat when we got to where we were going. Have fun!!! :drinker:
