After a trip to Death Valley we stayed at the Primm Valley Casino, which is actually at the State Line and not in Las Vegas. . I was pleasantly surprised that I could book a room for a Friday night on 2 days notice for $28 including tax. But the, considering the current economy maybe that's not such a big deal. Still, the casino was very busy, the staff friendly and the gaming was fun - you could play with the slots and keno machines for quite a while and not lose your money all at once.
The rooms were clean but we had an extremely long hike to get to ours, had to walk down two extremely long hallways, sort of like a huge horse shoe - not conveniently laid out by any means. Farthest I've ever had to walk in any casino hotel. Next time we go, if we go, I will know to ask for something closer to the casino. The one bad element of the stay was that the rooms are far from sound proof. We had a family next to us with screaming kids. Not only did they scream in the hallway but we could hear lots of scampering around and slamming doors, possibly the bathroom door, through our room wall. Then to top it off, there had to be some heavyweight above us as the ceiling continually creaked as he or she trudged about.
Next time I will request a room on the top floor and much closer to the casino. Also, I think places like this should provide FREE wireless internet. God knows they make enough money to afford it. Most people like me will just skip the pay service or go find a Starbucks somewhere.
