Believe it or not, you can stay on the strip in several mrtoeade level hotels under $100 a night Sunday through Thursday if you shop around on line. I suggest, if you are looking for one that you consider Bills Gambling' Hall and Saloon. The rooms are reasonably priced and are newly furbished. If you check around you can find whatever you want in Vegas as far as a hotel goes. If you are flexible in your time and avoid weekends, certain holidays, and convention dates you can stay in MGM or NY NY type hotel well under $100 a night. If you increase your price to $150 you can stay in some really nice rooms, and even find Suites available at that price. If you decide to stay in a cheaper hotel the Strip has rooms from $35 up. Just off the strip are Hotels like the Station Group Hotels and Orleans. Then there is Freemont where the older but nice hotels in Traditional Vegas are.
