Where else can you sit and relax, listen to some fantastic old tunes (old being a subjective term) and hear the good old sound of actual coins coming out of your machine? I sit there for hours singing along (quietly, of course), drinking some of the best drinks from the very polite bartenders and servers, letting my huge hotdog settle, and checking the quarters for any states I still don't have. Not pretentious, no fancy artwork or chandeliers, but just honest to goodness regular folk.

Great!

Visited again 7/10/08. They changed the slots since last time. Tighter than they used to be. The older games are gone.

99 cent foot long hot dog was good. Pay extra for toppings. Leave the 99 cent shrimp cocktail. Tiny salad shrimp on top of chopped onions. We got frozen margaritas in souvenir glasses. I think they left out the booze.

The days of coupon funbooks are over.

Still the best place to park is Circus Circus but valet is slow and unorganized. We couldn't find a self park lot.

I saw a huge cock-roach running along the floor just before we left. I could skip this place next trip.

Fun is what they mean! This is a Las Vegas must see. Time will get away from you here!

Yes, it's small and needs a bath, but, slots are lose and drinks are strong. The old machines you can't find anymore are a blast.

Park at Circus Circus and walk across. Be sure to get your coupon book as you leave the Circus Circus building. Great coupons I used!

Don't leave town without a trip to Slots-A-Fun!

My first trip to Vegas was Christmas 2006. This little place is fun, not glamorous by any means, but if you want to play slots, and drink for free, it is the place to be.

I won $600 on nickel slots (max bet only $0.25). And like another reviewer stated, the great cocktail waitresses are around to give you another drink when you have just started your last one.

If you are one who can gamble and drink for 20 hours a day, this is one place to hit for a couple hours during your trip!

This is the small step-child casino of Circus Circus. They have a free spin machine where you can win anywhere fron .75 cents to 250,000 dollars. This casino is still ALL coin and is a very dark and crowded "room".

The free hotdog and drink coupon from the ACG is the highlight of the casino. Excellent hotdog with any toppings you desire. I got a free coke for my beverage at the bar and it was not worth mentioning. However I'm sure a beer drinker will be pleased with a nice choice of brewskees.

They have 5 cent, 10 cent and 25 cent vidoe blackjack machines, something you don't see in a casino much anymore (especially the 5 cent and 10 cent machines).

Small place. They have hand pay-out on 1-cent Megabucks slots and I don't like that. Not missing anything. Keep walking.

I was here a few years ago. It is dirty and nasty.

The giant $1 hot dog is disgusting. I took a bite and threw it out. It taste like baloney. The $1 shrimp cocktail is nasty too. It is a small cup filled mostly with lettuce with a few tiny shrimp (smaller than dimes) on top. Also inedible.

We aren't hard to please and find that we spend most of our time at slots of fun.

The dealers and servers are friendly, drink service is very good, the customers all seem to be there just to have fun and they are!

Small casino but this makes it feel good! Met a number of locals who gamble there. Nice people. If you are what I call a casino snob stick to the upper class casinos like the wynn etc.

Let's face it. It's pretty low end but I love it. I can afford to gamble there.

It has the best drink service anywhere in Las Vegas. Just tip, and because of the small size, your server is around the tables before you finish your last one.

Most people, for some reason, are just overall friendly. A lot of the people are just learning to gamble at tables and you can feel at home instead of being intimidated.

Craps is even super friendly. I'll drink and gamble, but you can keep their monster hot dog.
