The replicas here don't even attempt to do justice to the real thing. Half of the tiny museum consists of its gift shop.
2. Shalimar Wedding Chapel
A couple of friends had a mock wedding ceremony here. It was embarrassing for everyone. Elivs was nasty. Don't ever do it.
Formerly Buccaneer Bay and still as unimpressive, this new sidewalk show is not worth the time. You'll regret waiting among the huge crowd for a glimpse at a rather unentertaining performance.

This free daily show is truly disappointing. Pet tropical birds perform silly tricks, led by an obnoxious host. Held next to a bar in the hotel.
5. Showgirls of Magic
This tacky nightly show at Hotel San Remo is billed as magic, but it's hardly more than poor comedy with props. Not worth sitting through even if you have a free ticket.

There's a reason this hotel and casino has some of the lowest rates on the Strip - it's a dump. Spend a little more and stay someplace nicer.
This buffet is hyped as one of the best in Vegas, but it was disappointing. High prices, long lines and mediocre food keep it from living up to its reputation.
Of all the poker rooms in Vegas, this is the worst. The entire room has less than 10 tables, and rarely has games going on half of them.
9. Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay
If this aquarium were free, it might come recommended, but for the price of admission, you'd expect a lot more.
Riding the Monorail is more trouble than it's worth. Stations are out of the way and fares are high.
