| - Hotel: I came her for the memorial day weekend, I was trying to have a good time in Vegas without spending an arm and a leg for the holiday weekend. The Valet line was extremely long, there was a lot of waiting just to drop the car off. Has the MGM Signature scent when you walk in which is a great thing. The registration line was fast and easy. I really couldn't hear the lady who checked me in though, I had to ask her yo repeat herself several times. Also the registration desk are very close together, I felt like me and the other guest were standing shoulder to shoulder. It was easy to find the room. It was clean but, old. The bathroom had stains in the toilet and on the tiles. The bed was comfy and the pillows were great. They had a couple of chairs in the room too which was a good little bonus.
Spa: I called a head of time and booked a Spa package for $145.00. It was a 25 minute Swedish, 25 minutes facial and 60 minute Pedi. They asked me to arrive 30 min in advance to feel out paperwork, which actually only took 5 mins. I got a tour, which was really nice. The spa is nice period. However they were obviously understaffed, not that I already couldn't see that but the girl at the desk in the waiting room had discussed it with other coworkers in front of me. She didn't have anything positive to see about the situation. I showered and waiting in the waiting room for about 25 min. The massage therapist came and got me and told me that the massage was only going to be Back, neck and shoulders. Ummmk, it would have been nice to have been told that before but whatever. The massage was OK, it wasn't wonderful and I definitely could have taken a taxi a few block away and gotten a better massage from massage Envy for a 1/4 of the price and double the time. She took me back to the front where I waited for my other services. I waited 30 mins for the lady to come and do my pedi. It was nice. I have no complaints with that part of the package. I was taken up to the front again where I waited another 30 mins. Since it was taking so long I asked how much longer I would have to wait, the front desk person told me that I only was scheduled for the two services.....ummm.. OK what about the facial?!? After she took 15 mins figuring out why I wasn't scheduled she came back and told me that there has been a "Mix up" and the first front desk person didn't provide a "card" to the person providing the facial and that is why I was left out of the schedule, so her manager can either schedule me later on that day to get one or provide a refund. REFUND please! I was there from 9:30am-2:00pm just for two 25 min services...come on! At that point I was starving. I went up tot he front and wasn't really given an apology, they just processed my refund and said thank you for coming in. Ummm yea, no need to thank me, I won't be back. Ever.
Pool: After eating I went to the pool, it was crowded given it being in the middle of the day and a holiday weekend. I immediately went to stand in line for a drink. While in line some guys said they were leaving and had paid $40 for the chairs they were sitting in and wanted to know if i wanted to sit there. I was like SCORE!!! being that I wouldn't have had anywhere to sit other wise. I got my drink and went and sat in their chairs. i sat there for about an 1.5hrs relaxing and enjoying just being out in the sun. At 5:40 a hotel service dude came and told me that i wasn't allowed to sit there without paying the $40 and that I would have to pay or leave...um...the pool closes at 6pm (In 20 mins), REALLY you're going to kick me out?!?! I told him that the guys that paid for the chairs for the whole day "gifted" them to me, but he told me that wasn't allowed. OK I guess I will have to go, because I am NOT going to pay $40 to sit here for the next 20 minutes. I understand them doing business and sells seating areas around the pool to guest that have already paid to rent rooms... I get it but REALLY?!? 20 mins, I mean come on its not like i wasn't a guest at the hotel. Whatever...
Over all, when I think of hotels on the strip, this isn't the worst one. Honestly, I wouldn't stay here again. its old, and not my style. At the same time I don't like the idea of spending three times as much to stay up the street at a newer hotel as much as I go to Vegas. Sometimes I have to slum it, but I wouldn't slum it here again.
