Saturday night stay $179.00 so no this is not a discount hotel any longer. I stayed here for several reasons I had an early flight and this hotel is extremely convenient to get to the airport, secondly I could park close to the entrance and had a short walk. My last stay in Vegas a few weeks ago was at the MGM Grand it was much cheaper and nicer but there were some issues and the parking garage was about 1/2 mile from my room (no exaggeration).
I found the staff to be friendly and accommodating and the shuttle bus to Mandalay Bay was a good option last trip back to the hotel is at 1:00 AM and the first trip to the airport is 5:00 AM not exactly what I wanted to hear since I had a 6:00 AM flight so I kept the rental car. I had a 4th floor room facing the strip and it was okay nothing more than the bare essentials but clean and quite. I probably won't stay here again simply because I won't put myself in the same situation with the early morning flights and it's just cheaper and the accommodation options are better on the strip excluding the one I mentioned above. Over-all not a bad experience just nothing special.
