got a surprisingly great rate when i found out i had an MLife card that i signed up for a while ago. haven't stayed at MGM in over 10years so it was a welcoming return. got here on a Saturday morning at 830am and there was a line 3 wide, all the way to the casino floor for the baggage check-in. holy moly. convention season is pretty rough.
after that kurfufle, check in went pretty smooth. we were able to get a room key in a couple hours. we didn't try to get to the room, just grabbed a drink and hung out for a bit, waiting for the line to die down. after dropping off the bags, headed to pool and spent the rest of the morning there.
we got a west wing room which was pretty modern and chic. unfortunately, there was no sink counter area for mama. that part really irked her. room and bed were pretty nice. shower and toilet were separate and fancy. the hallways were pretty freaking long and you had to commit to walking it cause there's no turning back. luckily, elevators were fast and not ever full.
the MGM affords a lot of options for both dining, drinking and good times. our second night we pretty much didn't have to leave the property for anything.
overall, a pretty cool stay at a great property. might just get a comped room from all the $$$ we spent here. at least, we should! we'll be back.
