Also, continue on down the road to Crystal Bay. You will find 3:2 and 5-10 dollar minimums at the Crystal Bay Club. It's also a fun place. |

I don't remember the names of the towers, but I have stayed in two of them. I didn't notice much difference. One of them was accessed by the elevator that's just down the hall from the reception tab ... |

I've stayed at the Sands twice in the past two or three years and find it satisfactory. I don't believe that you will confuse it easily with the Pep, but if your needs are relatively simple, the Sand ... |

I was on the Northshore the week of November 8-13 and spent some time in the Crystal Bay Club. It seemed to be going okay. The owners were doing lots of things (concerts, football nights, fashion sh ... |

When I got on the plane for my from DFW to RNO this morning, I saw a "Wifi" sticker. It seems my plane is outfitted with GoGo wireless and, for some reason, it's free today. So, as I write this, I'm ... |

Thanks! It looks like we may have to make this a two or three night event, rather than just one. We can have a pre-birthday dinner, a birthday dinner, and a post-birthday dinner.
It appears that I ... |

In three weeks, I will be in Reno/Tahoe on my (almost) annual November visit. During this time, I will celebrate a birthday (it's one of the big ones, involving Social Security). I would like to ta ... |

When I'm in Reno/Tahoe or Vegas, I only use my room for the four S's (sleep, shower, shave, and the other S). The Sands is perfectly fine for those activities.

Ah, but a massage chair and a chair massage are two entirely different creatures. A message chair is a vibrating piece of furniture, while a chair message involves a real person doing the massaging. ... |

I've given thousands of waitresses tips over the years and have never had that happen. Maybe I'm not just tipping enough.
