Resonable (Affordable) hotel for four at Las Vegas

[Sri C.]

My younger siblings are coming to visit me and I was torn betwwen taking them to Las Vegas (only the buffets and touring the city and free spots) and North CA(we all are tech geeks) and I decided since this is their first time, Las Vegas would be a better option?

Given that, is there a Mustaschian guide to choosing affordable hotel "tickets" for staying over the weekend?

Just need a place where four people can stay (if just to sleep for two nights and shower): nothing fancy as long as there are no bedbugs issue or leaking restrooms :-)

What would be a reasonable cost of accomodating the four of us in such a hotel for 2 nights and 3 days?

We don't have issues staying in the same room and are planing the trip sometime in middle of June.

It should easily be less than $150 (maybe 100 depending on how far you are okay with being from the strip).  Have you gone on any of the "Travel" sites to compare prices?

Right, I have been to these places:

... however noting that there was a MMM meet in LV recently, I wanted to tap into the community to locate what resources they used to land good deals

I like travelzoo.com for finding hotel deals and the LA times travel section usually has quite a few deals for Vegas. A couple years ago I drove out to Las Vegas for a few days and stayed at Vdara for $95/night (for two people). It was a perfect hotel for us because it didn't have a casino and was a few buildings behind the strip but we were just there to people watch, eat some food and see a couple shows (I think we also found 50% off for the shows at travelzoo or groupon).
