You don't really have to worry about staying in a roach pit if you book online. The scummy places tend not to have websites. Nevertheless, The Western is worth checking out at least once if you don't mind the smell of fresh urine.

And of course there's always The Western. A dime bag at the hotel at very affordable prices.

I just stayed at the strat a few months ago. wouldn't do it again. doesn't feel like a methlab though. Binions is cheap but it kinda feels like a methlab. Dark and dingy. Motel 6 to me is the Mcdonalds of motels. You always kinda know what your going to get.

Might want to check out Westward Ho on the strip.

I've never been in a meth lab so I don't know how it compares.

I recently booked a room at the Boardwalk for $30 a night, and its right on the strip. In June I stayed at the San Remo for $29 a night (dumpy but for the money just fine). These rates are Sunday-Thursday.

I wouldn't get a car unless you plan on leaving the general Vegas area(Hoover Dam, etc.) The Motel 6 on Tropicana(right across from the MGM Grand) is nice and clean and in a great location.

Also, go to Travelworm.com and look at the Sahara. It's $39 and the monorail goes to that location so you wouldn't need a car.

Go to Expedia and plug in your dates.

Then check the hotel websites for the 5 or 6 that are cheapest.

Try TravelAxe to find your best price. They search a dozen or so different sites for the best price. Do not book on the site with the lowest price. Call the hotel you pick directly and tell them the best price you found. They will match it or beat it. This way if you need to cancel, there will likely not be a problem. Booking with the online site may buy you the room whether you stay there or not.

Good luck....

PS I use the above method for finding flights as well. Use Travelocity, Orbitz, etc, then book the flight on the desired airline's website. It usually saves me $5 or $10 and gets bonus miles. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
