Oh, don't leave my strategic criteria out. 1 - Accessibility to
personal transportation - I prefer a low-rise motel type arrangement
where I don't have to walk through the casino to get to and from my car.
At first this was because I was nervous about being in public en femme
and has an "under the radar" aspect to it. Now it's about convienence
to the car. I hate to spend half my commute time walking from the room
to the car.
It also helps with my inability to resist the call of the slot machines.
2 - Economy - I'm on a pretty tight budget. I've stayed the Palace
Station and they send me discounts to come and stay again. Since I only
sleep, shower, store stuff and dress there, I don't need a real nice
facility. If the room is secure, clean, convienient and inexpensive,
I'm good to go. I really would like being closer to others for car
pooling or getting help, advice or a chance to visit during downtime.
But, I just have to keep within my spending limits.
