Most of us know about the Gold Dust West to stay. A little pricey, but very nice rooms and great beds. coffee shop is also very good. They offer AAA and AARP discounts, and now a BunnyRanch discount.
The Nevada State Railroad museum is on the South end of town and worth a look.
Eats, well three years ago we held the banquet at Q's B-B-Q, still a favorite . For very gooe Itilian food try Adele's, 1112 N. Carson 1 block North of the Carson St. US 50 corner. Reservations are a good idea.
