My personal vegas tips:
There is no sex in the champagne room. :-)
Seriously, a few good tips:
Vegas is a nice place, but there are some areas that are NOT so nice. If you are driving, be sure you know where you are going to.
If you are not sure about if a place is "good or bad", ask any of the car hops, bell men, or hotel front line staff. If they don't know, move on and ask someone else. You will get a real opinion quick enough.
Contrary to the "24 hour" mentality of Vegas, there is very little good food after about 10pm.
Never allow a taxi driver to take you "down the strip" unless there is no traffic. most evenings you can walk the strip faster than they will drive, which will cost you major dollars. Every hotel, without exception has some sort of back route. Ask them to take the "locals" routes.
PROSTITUION IS LEGAL ALMOST EVERYWHERE IN NEVADA EXCEPT CLARK COUNTY! There are many working girls in town, and there are many undercover cops. If you want a thrill, get a limo ride to one of the licensed houses less than an hour away.
Finally, a very funny thing that most people don't know: Most of "Vegas" isn't even in Las Vegas. The strip hotels and such are NOT actually in the city. Rules are different for many things, including strip clubs. What is ok in one place will get you thrown out in another.
Etc... Etc... :-)
