]]>Cromwell is o.k. but it lacks the enticement that the Real Strip has to offer.
Cromwell is for the young crowd 21 31. you know they don’t stick to anything more than5-7 years.
they don’t having the staying power that we boomers and the few traditionalist have to stay true to the history that brought us the Real Las Vegas.
So, please I beg of you keep the very location , tiny as it is, Stage Door, Batistta’s howe in the wall, and the ever so needed for liquor and snacks of all sorts. in this priceless location. It is at the center of the strip and so very, very handy for all who are staying in your properties. and as they all
walk to get there beverages and snacks, they hit all of your properties while meandering trough each casino and entertainment venue.
I have seen plenty of locals and others plant themselves on the stools in the bar, while enjoying music, and games at their finger tips. It is this clientele that is the heart of what makes Vegas strip great. A second home / family for persons that might not have any personal engagement with other single persons.
You have to know that this tiny piece of Realestate is worth its attraction in 10 x gold than just another fancy high end intimidating spot……

At $10/plate, I might find my way there every trip. Prices are not obscene, the place is indeed kitschy and the dude certainly works the accordion. But overall, I wasn’t blown away by the experience, given the price, and it wasn’t that expensive. You won’t find much better for less on the strip. But I don’t do the strip much these days, so it doesn’t matter.
I have no basis for comparison, so who knows what I missed 15 years ago, but I have no incentive to return. You hate to see “old school” Vegas go away, but it happens every year, somewhere, and Batista’s isn’t one I’ll shed a tear over.
