    Been quite awhile since I've been but Golden Nugget was always my home Sportsbook-wise with inexpensive rooms next door at Pioneer. harrahs "cookie-cutter" no real unique identity but its a matter of what you like. Riverside a must visit for it's vintage cars and just general legendary spot in Laughlin-ness.....LOTS of "identity". Used to be great food deals at the Ramada Express....may not even be called Ramada anymore, be sure to pick up Coupon Books from Tourist Info on the way in especially if you're a Vagrant cuz we used to work those for free $5 Roulette Rolls, $1.99 Steak Dinner at Ramada which came with a Free Breakfast coupon. Them was sure good days to be a bum. Now? Its like a whole other planet bearing no resemblance to that one. Golden Nugget was a chill sportsbook with comfy chairs, Riverside was just a tiny whole in the wall mess of a book with very little seating. Best Lines used to be at the Colorado Belle and best Dive Bar right behind there on the river, used to be literally down some stairs like a cave that bar. Above info possibly helpful to you if you're a no-count bum like we was back in our Laughlin days bettin' NBA practically LIVIN' in the Nugget Sportsbook surving offa White Russians and microwave pizza. The downstairs Buffet was magickal 'specially when comped.

    Thanks so much for the info. Sounds like you had some adventures in Laughlin.

    I have my dog with us and I had assumed most of these hotels would be pet friendly but I assumed wrong. Probably going to end up at Harrahs.

    Really appreciate your info.

    I haven't been to Laughlin since I was 10.

    Would love to go today and hit a bet to pay for the expenses of this trip but am also just looking forward to going back to a place I had some good days as a child.

    Boy did we have some amazing times in Laughlin. Place had NO grocery store back then, NONE. Just an Italian Deli and whatever one could find at the AM/PM. If Pioneer is NOT DOG FRIENDLY I'd be sickened. Clientele is local, old women dragging their dogs all over that place back in the day. Pioneer is cool, bit "slow" for a YOUNG drunk bum perfect for an elderly drunk bum. Hit up Tourist Information re: dog friendliness and those coupon books which I pray still exist. Tell people your dog is a "Service Animal"...might open some doors...gives you additional rights under some act or law....def walk along the river down from Nugget to Riverside.....see if that dive bar is still there...I'd pace odds at 10000-1 that it is but if it is its legendary. I lost a $612 parlay ticket there one night. Spilled beer on it then it vanished. Alcohol played a significant role in that. GL.

    Harrahs is the best. IMO


    The single deck blackjack is very beatable dealers hold deck in hands and u can see the next card off the top somwtimes . look for dealers holding the cards on an angle
