BACK IN THE EARLY 1970'S ... MY BUDDIES AND I WENT TO LAS VEGAS ON A BUDGET ... WE STAYED AT THIS GEM OF A MOTEL NEAR THE STRATOSPHERE CASINO. THE EL MIRADOR WAS A CLEAN FAMILY MOTEL IN IT'S DAY (see old postcard) ... I THINK WE PAID ABOUT $12 FOR 3 GUYS IN ONE ROOM .... NICE POOL AND OLD SCHOOL DECOR. TODAY IT HAS A TATOO PARLOR IN THE FRONT AND I THINK THE MOTEL IS NOW CLOSED .... YOU PROBABLY HAVE PASSED THIS HIDDEN MOTEL MANY TIMES AND NEVER NOTICED IT .... ANOTHER LITTLE CLASSIC GONE WITH THE WIND HERE IN LAS VEGAS. .... WHAT OLD MOTEL DID YOU STAY AT ??? ENJOY THE PICTURES, THANKS RICH BURGEL
