    Men How Far Is Lake Las Vegas From The Strip?

    Buddy has a time share out there that he can't use so as opposed to paying for Aria ($175 per) or the 2 free nights at the Trop (here its a shit hole) was offered his spot. I'm renting a car so no issue there. Is it far away from the strip? Traffic a pain in the ass driving up on friday / saturday / sunday? Parking? Thanks

    Too far away...especially if you will be enjoying some cocktails.

    There has to be something in between Aria and the Trop.

    If forced to choose, I'd take the Trop. If possibly entertaining some women, then Aria.

    If you want to go to the Strip at all, don't stay at Lake Las Vegas. It's a world away.

    It's a very slow pace, and people go there to not have to deal with the Strip and the traffic. It can be completely DEAD on the weekdays too. Sometimes a scene on the weekends depending on the weather, what events are there, and who is playing on the floating stage.

    Do one or the other. Don't try and do both. Too frustrating.

    yeah....guys that know vegas pay $420 a night for a $89 room.

    JJ should be the last guy you take any advice from for Vegas. his "vegas" is the gambler degen scene...i'd much rather go to have fun, stay at a nice place and waste a little money than to try and scrimp by on $10 free plays and free bottles of wine.

    But SBR Pro......NO!

    If you can't afford to be an SBR pro, then you certainly can't be Vegas Pro representative.

    Exactly. Outside of sleep/shower how much time are you spending in the room? Use that cash for other things.


    Edit: Saw your post late. Have fun.
