Prim and Proper.

We’re back again with that wandering, wondering British globetrotter, Walk With Me Tim. We like to feature him for a number of reasons. He’s funny. He’s honest, and he really gets down to the nitty gritty of travel. If you want your hotel room is not Spic and Span, he will point it out and get it sorted. If it’s globetrotting that gets you racing, Tim is your man. He doesn’t suffer fools. In this episode, we find him in an old US casino that is on its last legs. Tim does the walkaround and comes up with the verdict. And that’s good, because he scours places no normal people ever venture to see in a hotel or activity. So, join us as we take a look around.

As you can see on the hotel marquee, it’s on its last legs and, as of this post is scheduled to be demolished. So this is our chance to see what is probably a legend to some, but also an albatross to others. One component of this post is that, nestled inside the hotel is a car that was the automobile of Bonnie and Clyde awaits you. Click here for the full walkaround. (Spoiler: the hotel has perhaps been saved in the nick of time. It’s up or down.) To look and book with our travel partners, Expedia, click here
