Default Re: Vegas for New Years- three last minute hotel choices

Here's something else I'm considering: staying at the cheapest place on New Year's, probably that comfort inn, and then moving to a nicer strip hotel (Ballys or TI, probably) for the other two nights. Has anyone done that? Is it too inconvenient?

I've done that lots of times. It's inconvenient, but only for a little while. I'd do the Comfort Inn.

It was too good to be true: that rate was the government/military rate. Bally's rate is still good, but it looks like our "cheap" night isn't going to be that cheap.

Super 8 on Koval - $150
Palace Station - $189
South Point - $195

I was jumping on Palace Station, then found a deal for Stratosphere for $171. I foolishly booked without checking up on the site (TripRes) and apparently they are known for going through the entire booking process for deals that they aren't sure exist. Looks like that's the case, as instead of a confirmation, I got an "itinerary received" e-mail stating that they will let me know when it's been confirmed.

Being cheap isn't worth it.
