Had a great stay at El Cortez! The staff was super friendly across the board—valet and security were especially welcoming. I stayed in one of the cabana rooms, which was awesome and had a great vibe, though the elevator could use some updates. The blackjack dealer I had didn’t speak much English and gave me a bit of a hard time using my free play, but otherwise, the experience was solid. Cool bonus: I saw some influencers filming while I was there, which was fun to watch. I actually booked the room because of Bluff on Instagram and hoped I’d run into him. All in all, not the fanciest hotel in Vegas, but for the price (plus free valet!), it’s a great spot in a great location. Would definitely stay again.
