| - I've stayed at the MGM Grand a number of times over the years. The first time, I was just excited that I was staying there (my family always stayed at the cheap places). To me, this place was totally nice, but that was before I stayed at other resorts in the same price range.
The regular rooms are dated and don't feel completely clean. The TV is really old. For some reason this bothers me. The bathroom was clean, but the shower-head was not the best. The bed is not the worst bed, but also not the best.
If you stay in the West Tower, it will not live up to the hype. Very modern looking, but the layout is strange. The bathroom really affords you no privacy - not exactly sexy if you know what I mean. The bed feels cheap in these rooms. Also, our shower, which was glass all around, was leaky, so a lot our towels went toward keeping the floors dry.
The MGM has a lot of great offers, so we usually get good rates. We also love the location, particularly because the monorail station is a quick walk from the rooms. We love that they have so many restaurants, etc., so you don't have to leave to eat if you don't feel like it. All in all, the place is massive, so it can be a vacation unto itself.
Not the best resort, but far from the worst. Would give it another star, but the rooms are not holding up well and the housekeeping still leaves something to be desired.
