| - MGM is a decent place to stay if you can get a good rate... Check-in/out is a waiting game, as with any other hotel on the Strip. My room was actually much nicer than I expected, and I especially loved the blackout shades. They really work!... Internet was fairly fast, the minibar selection is good, and I was fortunate to be on a quiet floor.
Their higher-end restaurants were also better than expected, except for Fiamma- blecch
Negatives included boring, often rude blackjack dealers, poor cocktail service in the blackjack area, very little shade available at the pools unless you purchase a cabana (and, you know, it's HOT in the Vegas sun... there was also very limited waitstaff working the pools), the room air conditioner couldn't keep my room cool, and huge crowds everywhere
Overall, if you like staying on the Strip, this isn't a bad place. There are better hotels, and there are certainly worse places
