Best NAB experience at DVinfo.net

Hey all of you people who went to NAB, I'll be heading to vegas and I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on the best place to stay. I justify this being "media" because I used the acronym NAB in it.

I stayed at Main Street Station downtown. They've got a nice buffet there, even though I'm not much of a food fanatic. Rate was based on a package deal from Hawaii -- where a lot of their guests come from.

The cigarette smoke isn't as bad as most other places. Best yet, I won a decent jackpot on a poker machine when I went to NAB. It didn't make us rich, but we put gambling money back into the bank account for once.

Circus Circus usually has really good rates, too.

Thanks, I'm thinking of doing one really cheap night and then a more expensive night, (paid for in advance for when I lose all my money on the cheap night) I was thinking circus circus (because it's next to slots o fun) and then something like hard rock or MGm or bellagio or soemthing along those lines. (note the "expensive night" would be on a sunday drastically lowering the expense)

MGM was beautiful ... especially the pool area.

We stayed at the Frontier (a dump) but the price was right. You could hear the construction beeps of trucks backing up all night long from across the street though.
