Harrah's Reno - The Real Deal :
It's a Harrah's. You've been to one you've been to all... although Harrah's Reno is a bit less cramped and laid back than the Vegas version. Harrah's Lake Tahoe is really the best one of em all. The slots can be a bit tight sometimes (not as bad as Harrah's Laughlin though - sheesh) and the layout is particularly. On the major plus side - there's always Vegas rules blackjack and $5-10 tables available at all times day or night. The dealers are friendly and helpful and the clientele... well they're just plain nice folks (except if you come on motorcycle or racing weekends - then its a bit nuts.)
Harrah's Reno History
Bill Harrah parleyed a Reno bingo hall into what is now the largest gaming company in the known universe. Like everything in the world, Reno's casino skyline continues to evolve. Below this casino lies the rubble of the historic Nevada Club and Harold's. Someday another company will own Harrahs and this place will be demolished.
Location of Harrah's Reno:
Catty corner to Eldorado. Southern most casino on the downtown strip... just steps away from the famous Reno Arch
Cool Stuff About Harrah's Reno:
Sammy Davis Jr. - the greatest entertainer who ever lived - had a long term contract at Harrah's Reno. The showroom at Harrahs Reno is called "Sammys Showroom" - nice touch.

Nothing wrong, but nothing great, either. Room was a little smaller than I had expected, but it did have a fridge in the room and all amenities worked well. Had a single-cup coffee maker, would have liked to have had more than only two servings each morning as I tried to shake off the previous evening's activities, but note that I did survive. Also, the only place to plug in my phone or laptop was in the bathroom, as all other outlets were behind the furniture.Those are nothing but nitpicks, though, as the room and the property were certainly worthy of a return visit. A more serious negative (that dropped the grade from 5 to 4) is the lack of comp points with the Total Rewards program. I gambled there for three days and got only one room-night removed.
