Avoid the Sahara buffet. I wouldn't let my dogs eat it.
The rooms are mediocre at best.
It's not the best area, though not as bad as the Strat. The closest casino (Circus Circus)is easily a 15 minute walk door to door.
The $1 BJ tables draw in hordes of players, so the casino is hoppin at night. Of course, the rules on their BJ games are quite poor.
Personally, I would never stay here. I would think you could get the Imperial Palace for about the same price. It's about the same as far as rooms/food, but it's in a more centralized location.
Are there other casinos you were considering besides Sahara?
Here is an interesting review :
