Alongside mate, wouldn't worry though as the Rio seems to have more conference rooms than hotel rooms!

everyone is literally spoilt for choice, best to just jot up a schedule and stick to it.

Has anyone stayed here before http://www.holidayroyale.com/. Am considering staying for 8-10 weeks in Vegas and want somewhere no more than $1.5k per month if poss. This seems like a good cheap option. Any better suggestions are welcome tho. Thanks!

When I stayed there 2 months I just moved around hotels every few weeks, but the key is to start low level and stay in better as you go along. That way if you've knocked it in at least you're not having to wait a week for an elevator at the IP 

I know a few lads have stayed here http://www.tuscanylv.com/

I also found a month at Palms Place for about $2k for Claypole from around the 2nd week in June onwards, but that was with Expedia so ymmv.

Thanks, i like that idea a lot but it is going to be more expensive than staying at this holiday royale place. Think i will go check it out and then weigh up my options when there, i'm staying at Aria first so hotel downgrade tilt is unavoidable.

Hotel laundry service is joke expensive - cheaper to treat clothes as disposable items, wear them, throw them away and just go and buy new clothes.

Some of the hotels such as Signature have a laundry room, but key card access required, so you'd need to hang around and skank in when someone else was using it.

Somewhere off strip, there must be launderettes with service wash facilities, but I don't remember seeing one.

Just pack a case with old clothes, throw them away and come back with new ones.  Or, also cheaper to pay excess baggage up front and take an extra case.

Remember seeing a couple off strip last year when driving around.  My plan was to either just buy new stuff from the premium outlet mall or just hire a car and go to one of the laundrettes.

I normally just get stuff cleaned as I need it by the hotel, and treat it as a necessary expense...

Ha, well to me it's necessary because I don't take enough clothes to last me 2/3 weeks, and shopping for more a couple times through the trip isn't really feasible. I probably do somewhere in the region of $150 over a fortnight, but to me that's acceptable and I don't have to worry about ironing anything either Smiley
