text: When you want to come to Vegas for a couple of days and stay at a relatively cheap hotel but still be on the strip, Bally's is a worthwhile option. We had some friends that decided to do a Vegas wedding at Caesars. It took place during the memorial day weekend and the prices were jacked really high. We didn't feel like paying them and thought that staying nearby for a third of the price would be sufficient. Bally's offers easy access to Caesars by one the over-the-street bridges. It also has free shuttle service to the Rio and is a stop on the Vegas monorail if you don't feel like wearing down your feet. It's also connected to Paris, where you can up in the pseudo Eiffel tower.\n\nThe casino itself is quite nice, with plenty of table games and a somewhat lively atmosphere. They also host the show \"Jubilee\"'. Where the women wear the feathers and put on a classic Vegas style show. They have a newly renovated spa and gym and cheap and quick restaurants for those on the go.\n\nNow let's talk about the accommodations. We got a room with two queen sized beds. It was huge, but very dated. I would venture to say that it would be a suite at most other hotels. It was very clean and had your basic amenities like an iron with board and toiletries. The tv was still a 25\" tube, there were two seat-couches, a table and a dresser. The bathroom was a little bigger than normal and had a full sized mirror, which was a plus. I was a little disappointed at the lack of a coffee maker, but I could do without it.\n\nThe room was less than luxurious, but that's what's to be expected when you decide to go cheap. And with all the money you saved, you'll have more to lose at the casinos.
