| - MB is still 5 stars in my book. This time my boyfriend and I came for my birthday and got the 750 suite that came with (drumroll........)
A HUGE JETTED JACUZZI BATHTUB!
I love that the bathrooms also have their own TVs and the beds here are soooooooooooo comfy and soft. It is always worth it to upgrade to a room with a view of The Strip because MB has the best view. We came right in the middle of the NCAA Sweet 16. There was also a convention and spring breakers all around, so it was pretty busy and we were told there would be no chance of late check out, but when we called at 8am, the front desk was able to help us out with no problem.
The only gripes I have with MB are things that are probably out of the resort's control. Being that it is further south on The Strip, when it comes to late night dining, there really aren't a lot of options around that are within walking distance, and the 24 hour room service can sometimes be a hit or miss, but always pricey. I was turned away by one restaurant who's kitchen closed at 11pm, and was turned off by another when the service was too slow and too poor (you kind of get the idea that all of the chainy restaurants that are situated in between the casino walkways and in shopping areas just don't give a damn about anything). The casino here is also a little on the higher end with tables being the lowest at $10 during slow times. This can sometimes be a good thing, like when I'm up $400 on blackjack, but a killer when I'm down.
But other than that, the hotel rooms are pristine and modern, and the hotel staff are always helpful and friendly. I can't wait to go back!
Tip: sign up for their player's card M Life and try to get to the next tier level. My boyfriend and I were able to get up to the Pearl level this trip and we are now waiting for all the comps and benefits to come in!
