Lodging Notes:
You are on your own to book the Four Queens and Red Rock Casino hotels
The Four Queens is in mid-century historical downtown Las Vegas hotel. We are staying there to experience “Glitter Gulch” as it was known when the movie was made. They have a secure parking structure and we felt safe staying there. Please be aware this is old Vegas and not the level of amenities and luxury the new resorts have. The price is very reasonable at ~$75 per night including taxes (55+, Military, First Responder Discount). Sign up for their Players Card to get free parking and some other perks.

The Red Rock Casino Resort and Spa is one of the newest destination resorts in town. It is a sprawling complex with many restaurants, bars, and amenities. Rooms are still available as of 4/21/25.
If you missed the 4/5 discount deadline or want a refundable booking, you can open a Station Casinos Rewards account. That will get you the next best rate. If you don’t want to advance pay, or open a rewards account, the AAA/AARP rate is the best option.
