I always loved the bright lights of Vegas, along with a tiny bit of gambling (never could afford much, and thankfully it didn't hook me). But I also liked cheap hotels: the Las Vegas Club (downtown), Imperial Palace (the Strip). Fanciest place I ever stayed on my own tab was the Flamingo, which felt mythic.
Fantastic writing!!
