Received an offer for two free nights at Binions, and though what the heck, might as well take it, this also included $40.00 in slot play and 2/1 dinner. At first I was a little scared and thougth the rooms would be dumpy, but they are not, sure the room is old, the curtains were ripped and worn about by the sun, but the room was extremely clean, the washroom was a good size and there was plenty of counter space. The pool is very nice, it is very clean, not like the Plaza pool which is dirty and unkept. There are some nice chairs that you can fall alseep in. Apparently all of the rooms are being redone for 2010, do not be afaid to stay here, I stayed at 4 hotels this trip, and would rate MSS as first, Binions as second, Plaza as third and the Four Queens as last on the list.

OK, we got a great deal of $12 a night! We did not expect much so we were not disappointed. Beds were decent, bell service was great! if you want a downtown night or 2 this is a great place. I usually stay on the strip, but wanted to try something different this time. I am so glad I did! I love downtown! The energy is different (more real), the casinos were so much fun all over Fremont & the free shows on the "Fremont experience" streets were fantastic! The history is rich & the furnishings in some of the casinos are full of beautiful old antiques & chandeliers! There is so much to see, shopping is fun & food is great. At our hotel, they make the best grilled cheese sandwiches! It came with a yummy potato salad & a pickle. We added tomatoes to our sandwich & each meal (it was a filling ,meal) was only $4! We ate it each day it was so good! (2 days).

If you walk east on Fremont, you will find a small casino on the left. It has the only .25 roulette! It was so much fun to get $20 worth of chips & play for a long time! You must do this walk at night so you can see all the old neon lights like the “silver slipper”, the “cowboy” & many more!

The pool is a roof top pool with some of the very best views from downtown all the way to the strip & Mountains beyond! Beautiful pool deck area. Small pool, but nice.

Stay down town! You will be pleasantly surprised!

What a great hotel. Yes it needs updating. Our curtains were ripped, but the room was clean and the staff were friendly. No safe in the room but we rented a safe deposit box in the hotel lobby free of charge. We stayed for two weeks and my sister and I had the best time. The deli bar had reasonably priced snacks and on our last night we went to the Ranch Steakhouse which was very old Las Vegas, dark decor and button back leather booths. The food was excellent as was the service. I would recommend Binions to anyone who is looking for a place to lay your head at the end of a fun packed day. The advantage of staying downtown is that everything is on your doorstep. The rooftop pool was great and probably the best kept secret in Vegas. The round sun beds are great and there is very little shade so you don't need to keep moving around. It may be only a 3* hotel but we had a 5* stay.

For the price it was Great! It was very clean and the staff was so nice to us! It was in walking distance of everything. I WILL go back to stay at this Hotel. It was my first trip there and I enjoyed it so much.
