| - Before I begin my review, I'll mention that we paid for our room with frequent flyer miles, so this review is in no way based on price.
First, know that there are three towers in this hotel - tower 1 is located closest to the main MGM building and exit onto the strip, tower 2 a bit further away, and tower 3 at the end. All four buildings are connected via indoor walkways with some of those moving walkways in them, but it might be a bit of a walk for some. For us being in tower 3 was a mild nuisance... I would have preferred to be in tower 1, but when making a reservation I wasn't even aware that the hotel was in 3 separate buildings.
There is a monorail stop between the MGM casino area and tower 1, as well as a ton of eateries, fast food places, and shops. The MGM casino in general seemed to be a bit less busy than many of the other casinos we visited during our trip, which could be nice if you're looking for a bit of a slower pace. The spa is also in this area between tower 1 and the casino.
Our room itself was quite wonderful. We had a junior suite, which had a king-size bed, living room area, small balcony, kitchenette, and large bathroom with a separate shower and large jacuzzi tub. Pretty damned nice. It felt luxurious.
The public hotel areas in the Signature towers are nice, although not as grand as what you'll see in other hotels. We didn't get a chance to use the pool; each tower has its own and they close at 7 p.m.... not sure if this is a Vegas standard, but that was a bit disappointing.
Overall, I would consider staying here again if I make it back to Vegas, but since I can only compare it to casino hotels I've stayed at in Atlantic City and CT, I can't say for sure if it's really much nicer than any of the other quality places on the strip.
