UGA.........I am not sure what you are looking for, but I can tell you that the Sahara during the week has rooms as low as 25 bucks. Now that is cheap.
Also, the Golden Nugget has great "three day deals" on rooms that work out to about 39 bucks a night.
Again I don't know what you are looking for but those two deals above are pretty cheap.
I would call the GN/Sahara and say "My friend stayed there 2 months ago and got a great deal". That usually works.
Also, the Motel 6 across the street from MGM has nice rooms and always has good deals.
