Whatever hotel is selected as the primary recommended hotel, it should
be easily accessible to the monorail and other public transportation for
those of us who don't have or want the responsibility of a car.
The Sahara for whatever fault it may have is accessible to the monorail
(which will surely be running without interruption by next year), the
strip trolley, and public bus system. Plus it's easy to catch a cab and
the various services to the airport seem to be plentiful. It's also
within easy walking distance to convenience, drug, and other stores
including the Glamour Boutique.
What other reasonably priced hotels would be reasonably accessible to
public transportation? The San Remo Hotel probably fits the public
transportation criteria although it's probably not going to be budget
priced in 2005 and it's not quite as convenient since you have to walk a
couple of blocks and cross main thoroughfares to access public
transportation including the monorail at the MGM which is across the
street as I recall.
My rooms at the Sahara, except for the year I almost froze in the older
part of hotel where I couldn't turn off the AC, have been fine and the
help for the most part has been very accepting and friendly. I've
actually had fun knowing certain of the clientele were confused with us!
And while some guests may have their confused faults, there is so much
security we are perfectly safe and that's what counts.
