| - We decided to give this place a try to celebrate my wife's birthday.
While I know that one of the reasons why people come to Vegas is to gamble and this hotel has no casino, it was still a great experience.
First off the hotel is a nonsmoking hotel, so that meant that if I was gonna get dressed all nice for a dinner I did not need to worry about getting all smoky going from my hotel room to my car. Although if you do want to gamble the mgm is accessible through a secure walkway and it's about a five to ten minute walk to the casino.
Secondly, the hotel is valet only. I know this sounds strange that this is a perk. When vegas is charging you for parking, why not spend the same money for tipping the valet guy and having them bring you your car. In addition, I love the fact that when I get of my car the elevators to my room is about a 100 feet away. Usually when you valet or self park you still have about a 5 to 10 minute walk just to get to your room. Another thing that I love is the security, in order to drive into the hotel you need to be a guest, there is a secure drive way and to enter the hotel from the mgm casino you also need a key to get in.
Lastly, the hotel staff is on point. From the security at the front gate, front desk, valet and concierge service, everyone made us feel like we were important and appreciated. We want to stay at this hotel the next time we come to Vegas.
