I completely agree with your take on The Four Queens. I have never stayed there, preferring to take advantage of comped rooms at the Boyd Properties. But when my feet hit the floor in Downtown Vegas, they are on a mission to get to the 4Q.
I have pumped so much coin in through video poker there that I was gob smacked when I found out how many comp bucks I had accumulated!
Like you, I just feel at home there. Never have had a bad meal at Magnolia's or Hugo's. My only minor beef is that the bartenders aren't very hospitable. Not rude, not at all. Just seem like they would rather be someplace else. I always tip (former bartender myself) at least $5/every 2 beers, more if the bartender has a personality (Go over to Mega Bar in Circa and see the engaging Tony.) or if I have a nice hit on the bartop machines.
I cannot wait to get there next week as well as their sister property, Binion's.
Interested to have a look at the El Cortez and see if the renovations have ruined the vibe there that I like so much.

El Cortez is looking great!!
Have fun. If ya see Tim, tell
Him hi.
Any chance that you will be in town 5/28 till 6/3? We can go see Tim together. :)
Probably not. Unfortunately. I'm dealing with some house stuff in TX, but if we get past the Avs…. I'm coming home for cup games. Regardless of cost.
Drat! Take care of hearth and home first! Best of luck!
