Some Vegas properties have attendants. I've always found it disconcerting to be handed a towel by someone I had assumed was the janitor (they're usually doing some shining and polishing while waiting to hand out towels).

The Imperial Palace's main men's room off the gaming floor has an attendant. It also has a huge selection of hair tonics and goos and some colognes spread out on the counter which looks more messy than classy, but I like it. The attendant there also does shoe shines. Last visit he noticed my dusty boots.
"Say I can shine those boots up real nice for yuh," he offered.
"I'm heading home in a few hours," I said, "I don't really need clean boots."
"Yuh don't wanna get home with dust on your boots," he countered.
"But it's Las Vegas dust," I said, "It's lucky. I want to take some of the luck home with me."
"Well I can't argue with that," he said, "No sir, I can't argue with that."
