On my first trip out to Vegas this is where I called home. The waves of hotels come and go. There are the oldies, the semi-new, and the new. MGM fits in with the semi-new batch. It's not state of the art by all means but it's a classic that still stays classy. I like the location of MGM as it's not far from most other casinos and there are trams to take you else where. The sports book here is really relaxed and there is a Lion exhibit right next to it.
