The casino is spread over one level and everything is very well spread out, making it easy to get around. Palace Station Casino is not one of the largest casinos in Las Vegas, but it certainly feels spacious. Similarly, the gaming floor never seemed at all crowded, either. There is pretty extensive parking at Palace Station (free, of course) and in my several hours at Palace Station (it was a Monday morning through early afternoon), the parking lot did not get filled anywhere near capacity. From the main entrance, one actually goes down a few steps to the gaming floor and this is somewhat strange for those who go to a lot of casinos. The building is a fairly simple casino with the hotel set back from the almost-Western themed facade of the casino.

For those not familiar with the little desert city known as Las Vegas, this is almost on one's way out of town. Sahara Ave., this is a good mile and a half from all of the major casinos on the Strip. Palace Station Casino is located very much out of the way of the mainstream. Palace Station: came in with $5.00, left with $5.00 (four hours later). And if I just want to relax and play video slot machines for an afternoon on machines that are low-key, somewhat girlish, and reinforce my newfound willingness to support legalized gambling, I go to Palace Station. ummm, the 'sights' of Las Vegas, there's the Rio. If I have managed to ditch my mother and want to enjoy. If I want to play the (this is so sad to admit) banks of Star Wars video slot machines, I go to the Sahara. If I want to eat or make some money, I go to Terrible's. And having now returned home to my relative sanity, poverty and routine, I know that there are only four places I went to that I would bother going back to, as far as the casinos go. On my latest trip to Las Vegas, Nevada, I finally started gambling. The Basics: A wonderful casino to kick back for a few hours (with friends, if you have them), Palace Station was a lot of fun while in Las Vegas.
