Mavens Overview
Like several of the other hotels on Fremont Street, Binions is decidedly 'Old School'. The emphasis is on gambling not shows, nightclubs, or fancy meals. You'll have to look elsewhere if that is what you are looking for. The hotel has a pool not a given for downtown hotels. Sort of amoot point right now, since the hotel closed in December 2009, hopefully this is temporary until the economic news improves.
