If you’re trying to work in Las Vegas without burning out, keep this list handy.
Before you choose a workspace, ask:
☐ Is it separated from casino floors or foot traffic?
☐ Does it have predictable noise levels (not just “quiet right now”)?
☐ Is lighting natural or soft, not harsh or flashing?
☐ Are seating and tables comfortable for 2+ hours?
☐ Is Wi-Fi reliable without constant re-logins?
☐ Can you leave easily if stimulation builds?
When cafés stop working:
☐ Try libraries (underrated, reliable, calm)
☐ Use hotel lounges early in the day
☐ Look for community or civic spaces
☐ Rotate locations instead of forcing one to work
☐ Prioritize predictability over atmosphere
For business travelers & convention days:
☐ Plan a quiet backup location before the day starts
☐ Schedule breaks before you’re depleted
☐ Avoid peak lobby hours (11am–2pm, 5–7pm)
☐ Protect mornings for focus; socialize later if needed
For long-term remote workers:
☐ Build a weekly rhythm (not daily decisions)
☐ Match work type to environment (deep focus vs admin)
☐ Leave before overstimulation hits
☐ Choose calm over convenience
