Vegas as a whole was a wonder. And one tiny and very dusty wonder in the land of glitz and glamour was The Riviera Hotel and Casino.

Considering that I came to Vegas to gamble it fulfilled all of my immediate needs. 24 hours a day the place was lit up like a Christmas tree and scantily clad women paced the floors offering free drinks. My head hit a slightly less than clean pillow only a few times during my week long stay. No alarm clock in any of the rooms - but now there wouldn't be now would there?

I played slots all over the city during my stay - The Riviera however has the best. After losing quite a bit of money down at the Golden Nugget on historic Fremont Street, I was able to come "home" and win most of it back.

The food in the hotel was simple and hearty. Coffee comes in beer stein sized mugs (Again guess why...) and you can get completely full - for the entire day - for a few dollars.

Overall if you coming to Vegas to gamble and could care less about drab decor, dusty and musty rooms or plain food this is your hotel.

P.S. This hotel has topless shows if you're interested...
