| - THEHotel has become the only place I stay in Vegas. I love the sleek and modern suites, which I believe this establishment really kicked off for the rest of the strip, with spots like Encore. I also love that the hotel itself does not have a casino, but rather is adjacent to the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino - so it's a lot more mellow, and frankly, cool. There's also no smoking in the public hotel areas, which is a great escape from the stank you're in for the entire duration of your trip.
I've found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. I forgot my phone charger, and was immediately directed to Security, which has a wide array of everyone's left-behind charger for guest use - sweet! I also left my credit card in THECafe, but didn't realize it for hours after THECafe had closed. A hotel manager and Cafe manager jumped on the situation immediately, and my card was returned to me within an hour - very impressive.
It's certainly not an inexpensive hotel, and even in this economy, it's not likely to wow you with low prices (though the cost was lower than in years past this go-round). You also have to come to grips with the location at the far end of the strip, away from frequented spots like Ceasars, Bellagio, Wynn and Venetian/Palazzo.
Still, I'd stay here again and again to enjoy a vacation from my Vegas vacation :)
