Great hotel to stay if you want to be along to be on the Las Vegas Strip.
You are in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip. Not too far from the McCarran airport. If you don't feel like walking along the strip then head across the street to MGM Grand to take the monorail.
The hotel was very affordable and had good rates. We got a 2 queen size bed rooms. The rooms were nice, clean, and it was a big room. Our room had a view of the T-Mobile Arena and parts of the Roller Coaster.
Plenty of casino games to go gamble and play. They are spread all over. If you don't feel like gambling, but still want to have fun. You can definitely check out the gaming arcade they have. They also have a roller coaster.
There are plenty of restaurants to go eat without every leaving the complex. They are trying to make New York City-ish, but I don't really think it is in terms of the food.
If you are looking for shopping, then there are gift stores inside the casino like the Hershey's World Store.
New York New York alone is a tourist sight, but the scale down version of it. Ok maybe they need to work on some details, but still a good place to stay and check out.
