Careful - pickpockets and soliciters are everywhere. Keep your wallet in front pocket for guys - and girls need a "belt type purse worn around your waist".
A thought to consider - if you want points, every casino has the "key card" to get your them. You establish a credit account.
They do a credit check on your, and they have your credit report.
Everyone knows what you owe, and every credit card you have, because when your name pops up for casino ID, they instantly have tons of information about you.
That is their "COMP" PROGRAM, and every casino has one.
If that is what you want, you will get just that.
No thanks, no comp program with my credit report advertised to anyone in any casino for me!
But if you want to have fun: Read on -
There are many deals at expedia.com and travelocity.com
lasvegas.com
There are casinos everywhere - so don't feel you have to lose all of your money at one location.
There are roller coasters on top of tall buildings.
There are white tigers on the first floor side area of the Mirage.
There are outside shows at Treasure Island.
Gambling:
There are many where you can lose $50 without even trying, then win $10, then win another $50.
It's easy to lose $100+ a day minimum, so if you're smart
you'll back away if you lose $20 - and try your luck another time, or another day.
Best location, and I stayed there January 2006, was the Mirage and it's next to Treasure Island, across from Venetian Grand canal, and down the street are Bellagio and the Eiffel tower.
You can walk everywhere, or take the bus when your feet get tired (very cheap).
Don't forget to lunch at the Eiffel tower - pricey but great, great food, and across from the fantastic Bellagio fountains that have themes - yes dancing fountains w/music when you're outside to hear.
Lunch also at the revolving restaurant -where you can see all of Vegas during the day - THE STRATOSPHER. The food was magnificent and you can see if you go at lunchtime - where the people of Las Vegas live and the mountains that surround it.
Las Vegas - I saw Jay Leno and he was non-stop for 1 & 1/2 hours of jokes, and we got the last 2 seats in the far section, and it was still somewhat close because the entertainment area was well done!
We went to see Mystere show - and the best is called "O" which means water in French. The stage actually opens for people to dive into, and then closes for people to walk on it.
So amazing.
At the end of 7 days, I was ready to come home. It's exciting, but not enough to say, wow someday I'd consider living there.
GOD bless us one and all, always.

If you book online you can get more bang for your buck! For $150 and under you can stay at:
The Palms
Mandalay Bay
Monte Carlo
The Paris
New York, New York
The Mirage
Its hard to book suites online. Personally I know The Palms has really good ones ranging around $200 per night. Keep in mind prices go up and down depending on the time of year and day of week.
Have fun.

There are many great hotels in Vegas. The most important thing is location. You probably want to be on the Strip it makes it much easier to visit other casinos. For 150 you can find a room at a nice place (Flamingo, Excalibur, Luxor, Riviera) Those are all nice properties with decent location. The are older but in good condition.

I'd say you could probably get a room during the week at
"THE hotel" at Mandalay Bay. The rooms are huge, each fitted with plasma tvs and decorated very modern and comfortable.
The room rates do go for as low as $150 depending on time of the year.
Enjoy your time in Vegas! You're going to have a blast!

Try the Excalibur. It's location is central to most attractions. And as they say all the rooms look the same when you turn the lights off. One warning if kids get on your nerves don't go there as there are lots of familys who choose the Excalibur.

Caesars (so a 'little more', take advantage!)
I heard here at Answers! that the Rio has suites for the price of rooms & on tv 'Embassy Suites' do that routinely.
