| - I've been wanting to check out The Signature for years, and since I'm a firm believer of "everything in moderation", I stayed here on two occasions this past July.
Hits:
* Love the massive drive up to the 3 towers after the gates open... talk about a grand entrance!
* The picture booth in the lobby is fun :)
* All the staff I have come across have been so courteous, willing to help, and extremely accommodating
* Was only a little obsessed with our balcony view from the 2nd tower, 35th floor of the Strip skyline... Swanky livin'!
* Spacious, lovely golden-hued rooms, which matches the color scheme of the tower exterior, complete with a kitchen or kitchenette with high-end appliances (Bosch, Miele), and space-wise, even the studio suite had more room than expected
* Dishware and teacups made of bone china... Pinkies up!
* Pop-up TV table in the bedroom
* Staying in a condo on the Strip at a fair (and bordering cheap) price tag with more amenities than we knew what to do with
* Very secure -- complete with checking in before the driveway gates to make sure there's no randos, and security guards occasionally roaming the halls to make sure our doors were closed
* No need to cab it to Hakkasan from here :)
* Accessible to Las Vegas Blvd. through MGM Grand via a walkway (AND MOVING WALKWAY) with a food court in between
Lessons Learned:
* Though we had no problems with friends visiting our suite, having a security check- in just added an extra burden... Also, if you wanna add a friend name to your reservation at check-in, make sure you know how to spell correctly :/ (that was my bad, and the guard at the gate gave them a hard time about it... But in the end still let them in)
* Getting our car during check out one weekend took a good half hour -- valet drivers seemed understaffed
* Hailing a cab can be relatively challenging, since they don't normally wait there -- either the valet calls or we hop into a cab that has dropped off another party there
* It's hard to accommodate valeting multiple cars on one reservation during holiday weekends
After visiting Vegas 3 times within one month, I'm taking a (hopefully short) hiatus. When I'm ready to return to my second home and party on the south end of the Strip, I would love to stay here again.
