Rooms: We were pleasantly surprised at the size and comfort of the suites here. The beds are very nice, the bathroom large, and the half bath in the hall totally convenient if you have more than 2 people in the room. The couch and sitting area is really comfortable. Our room overlooked the Luxor pyramid which was beautiful at night!
The casino here is huge! I still am not sure I saw all of it after a weekend. Saturday night they had a classic rock cover band playing in the casino so that was fun. The Mandalay shops are right there too, as well as Starbucks and some restaurants.
Check out was super easy, and they will hold your bags if you have a later flight. YES!
Pool: The wave pool was really fun and the lazy river was the best. We got a cabana in the west lagoon for our group and it was the perfect place to spend the day. Service was friendly and attentive. The cabanas come with 2 tubes for floating which really came in handy.
The CONS - its a bit down the strip. It was about a $15 taxi each way to the Cosmopolitan area and about $15 from the airport. Our shower didn't drain well, ugh. That was pretty annoying, but shame on us for not calling to get it fixed. The pool area is a pretty far walk from the rooms. Probably over 10 minutes away. Lastly, when we arrived on a Friday afternoon the line to check in at the front was very long! It took over 20 minutes to get to the front, which is longer that I have ever waited. Very annoying when you are just arriving and want to get going.
The pros outweighed these things. I would definitely stay here again. Its an amazing hotel.
