I am nowhere near to be representative but I was in Las Vegas the first time last year for a conference and event.
I initially made the mistake and walked jet-lagged at 8am on the strip. Horrible. Smell of urine. Drug abuse. Drunk people sleeping on the street, by the looks of them not homeless but just 'lost' after being totally wasted. Was thinking what the heck is this place about.
Fast forward, 12 hours later, after many beers, it was great. Great clubs, tons of people, hot and very chatty girls. Really enjoyed my time.
So I think for a corporate event/ stag do/ men's holiday a great place, by no means I would come with wife and my two year old.
