Las VegasAugust 12, 2011Check out the exterior façade. It’s the same one that graced the El Cortez since it opened in 1941.
Pay attention to blackjack game rules. Almost every table is different.
- .excellent place to grab a5 dollar burger and a beer
Stefan HeinemannDecember 15, 2010Rooms are good enough but Room 5561 has an HVAC or generator above it that creates an unbearable noise/vibration. Had to switch rooms
HISTORYApril 7, 2010This casino opened in 1941 and was owned by Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel who sold it to fund the construction of the Flamingo Hotel.- Dee MarquezFebruary 26, 2011Great place nice room and gambling is the cheapest in town 25 cent roulette

UncleBob MartinOctober 22, 2011Yey-yeah, it smells like old folks during the day, but that's the smell of genuine Vegas!
Joseph ConstellationMay 26, 2012The staff here are incredibly rude. This place is one to avoid, local or tourist
Jason BridgersApril 3, 2014The room smelled like cigarette smoke and the bed felt horrible, I will never stay here again
- Nicole CozmaJanuary 15, 2011While this place might be a piece of Vegas history, the terrible smell that a clerk told me they purposely PUMP IN through the air smells like your aunt Gertrude's perfume spilled in her purse.
Don't expect much if you stay here. It's nice, but looks like someone who put too much makeup on an old, old woman.
