    Stratosphere in 2005. We stayed there for 10 nights and had a pretty crummy room with no view at all. We thought it was great too. Didn't realize what else was out there as we were Vegas virgins. Have never been back there and would never stay there again. Price was obviously the reason we stayed there.

    The wife & I got married in 1971 and I planned the Honeymoon in yep, you guessed it Las Vegas! I wanted to go first class (at least the first two nights. lol) so we celebrated at Caesars. Two days at Caesars then the grim reality set in (lack of funds) so our last 3 days were at the Westward Ho near Circus Circus and Slots a Fun. To this day, my wife won't let me forget those last three nights of our Honeymoon... but I'm still taking her to Caesars (three times in the last 5 years). LOL

    Lady Luck, June 1992. Had just gotten divorced, and had a buddy who got free rooms there. Hooked on Vegas from then on!

    Holiday Inn Center Strip, circa 1971 or 72. It was newly opened and did not contain a casino yet. Now called Harrah's

    You can just go ride them without staying in the Pyramid. Just don't lean on the half-walls in the hallways, they are not stable.
