| - I'm waffling between 3 and 4 stars. I came here on a business trip, so I did not pay for the room. So, I'm going to give the Mandalay Bay 3 stars because it is pretty pricey and at the end of the strip. If I was here for pleasure, for this price I would probably stay more in the center of the strip.
However, my stay here was very nice. The rooms are spacious - i had a 2 queen room which had a nice flat screen, bedside lighting, enough space for a desk and a side chair. There were two closets. One has the rod hung tall enough to hang a wedding dress or a formal. That was interesting, but made sense in Vegas. Not so convenient for a short gal, but I used the other one.
The bathroom is marble with the separate "pooper" room (as my husband calls it), a glassed in shower which is separate from the jacuzzi tub (rectangular, not round). It's a relatively spacious for a hotel bathroom. The obligatory phone is by the toilet. That always makes me laugh.
There is no in-room coffee pot, but I don't think there is at any hotel on the strip. This is a huge hotel with many rooms and several conventions going on but the wait for the elevator is minimal to none.
The complex itself is very nice. It was unusually cold when we were there so I did not use the beach area, but it rocks. Our conference had a party there our last night and it would definitely be worth the price of the hotel room to have access to this in the summer.
There are several restaurants in the complex. It is HUGE! In fact, it seemed like we were walking miles back and forth to the convention center. The restaurants were kind of pricey, but I only ate at a few as many of our meals were provided. The drinks were pricey too. $10 for a house wine or mixed drink in the casino. Once again, I am told that's Vegas.
There are several clubs in the complex. One is on top of THE Hotel and it has a great view of the strip. Another one is called "Light" and it is evidently THE place to be on Wednesday night. You will see lots of crazy outfits, Cirque de Soleil folks, etc.
I'm not a gambler (I know, you just stopped reading) so I can't say much about the casino part. People seemed to be having fun, but what is the point in video roulette or craps? Seems to take away all the excitement.
I only went outside the casino once during 4 days. That was to jog. You even have shopping in between the Luxor and the Mandalay. Vegas is crazy.
