A few of my friends and I were talking the other day about how
we missed the good old days when the Hotels and Casinos were small
and warm. I know that a lot of visitors like the big plush palaces of today's
Las Vegas and that is great. However I remember when I would visit here
(which I did a LOT) my friends and I stayed at many different properties
and one of my favorites was the Desert Inn, the staff there was the greatest and always made you feel like a high roller (even though we weren't) and one of my friends said they always went to the little Bourbon Street Hotel on Flamingo to get
the $7.77 steak and lobster. Again the big fancy hotels are fine and a sign of the new Las Vegas, but I have heard many comments about how cold they are and that the staff at a lot of them, seem like programmed robots. Not like a few years back when most of the staff acted like they were really glad to see you. Maybe it would be better to let the staff use their experiences with guests and not have so much pre this and that. We need to bring back that nice warm feeling even if everything is "BIGGER and BETTER" Bet it can be done. Above this blurb I have
posted a few pictures of property's of the past. If you enjoyed yourself at any of these or maybe even worked at one please leave a little note of your experience.
