Westwood Ho Closing November 17th

The Westwood Ho Hotel and Casino has announced it will close on November 17th. It has been bought by a property developer so probally more high rise condos will be built. This was another older property where you could get bargain rooms on the strip.It is basically a slot casino with a large motel behind it. Its nothing fancy but its a place to eat,sleep and drink for cheap on the strip but nearby to other bigger casinos like the Stardust. It was easy to get comped there and domestic beers usually Budweiser and Coors by the bottle were $1. Its a shame to see it go especially so soon after Harrahs took over the Imperial Palace. The older places that have cheaper rooms are vanishing quickly from the strip.
