Good luck...Manny is an Icon in the Casino Host business....we would not

be
surprised if the phrase "Casino Host" is changed by the industry to
"Casino
Manny"

It's good to hear such a positive experience existed. Being 8stars sounds
not too shabby. I'm wondering if this might be an opportunity to share
your
favorite hosts at the other LV properties? Every once in while, I consider
jumping to another property, but building a relationship with a host who
gets it in this climate isn't something I look forward to doing. The offer
may be great in the mail, but dealing with all the headaches once you get
there just doesn't seem to be worth it anymore. For a three day weekend
we
opt to stay local and avoid the buzzkill of check in, host communication,
and playing comp roulette at the end of a trip. Especially given that the
pay tables her in the Midwest seem to be better than most of what the strip
has to offer.

So who's your favorite host(s) at the amenity rich properties in Vegas?
The
ones who still get it and know how to fight for you, communicate well about
what they can and can't do for you and make your trip truly enjoyable?
